America Hates Guns and The NRA

Maybe only part of America:
(The National Rifle Association's) magazine “American Rifleman” has broken into the top 25 magazines in the country, according to the Alliance for Audited Media.

The magazine...surged 29 percent to 2.2 million readers in the second half of 2013 over the same period the previous year.

At the same time, circulation for all magazines was down 2 percent during that time frame....

There was a massive increase in NRA membership last year from 4 million to 5 million that mirrored Mr. Obama’s second-term gun grab.

The magazine is one of three publications (“American Hunter” and “America’s First Freedom”) that members can choose when signing up for the pro-Second Amendment organization.
Membership is up only 20% in a year? Amercia must hate guns and the NRA.

A lot more women seem to be shooting these days. It would be interesting to see the membership breakdown by sex, age, and location.
