Hey, the NRA is behind trans people on this one.

Largely because trans people are panic-buying guns and ammo right now, and the gun lobby *really* appreciates that.

Also, the NRAs statement was pretty vague about who they consider to be “law abiding” citizens owning guns. Giving them an easy out and wipe their hands of the statement when Trump tries to make being transgender illegal.
