It’s nearly impossible for any rational being to agree with anything the National Rifle Association says or does. But when they’re right, I think it’s very important that we acknowledge that.
Former President Donald Trump is scheduled to speak at the National Rifle Association’s Annual Leadership Forum on Friday. But audience members at the group’s annual meeting, being held this year in Houston, won’t be able to carry guns during his address.
It’s true: No one should be carrying a gun anywhere near a former president. Ever. Then again, no one should be carrying a gun near anyone.
(Adding: Yeah, there probably are a few commonsense exceptions but as a general principle, let’s err on the side of zero guns.)
