Consequences...

I know very little about the NRA and its origins but I do know it has considerable political clout and expends that not inconsequential clout on lobbying politicians on behalf of gun manufacturers. In light of the changes in laws, rules and regulations that have come about through these efforts, I am curious how the NRA defines 'terrorist'. Furthermore, have the consequences of their activity, in effect, aided the terrorists in their goals? Isn't it illegal to provide aid and comfort to terrorists?
