James Woods deftly fact-checked actress Alyssa Milano over her latest ignorant tweet about the NRA.
Responding to a tweet by Mother Jones’ Mark Follman that the National Rifle Association “promoted a Russian sniper rifle that the Pentagon considers a threat to US troops,” Milano spouted a line from the liberal anti-gun narrative handbook.
The NRA doesn’t care about the American people, it’s members or our troops. They care about profit. #NoRA https://t.co/6qthHnPRxG

Woods schooled Milano on just who NRA members are, without missing a chance to throw shade at the liberal activist about her own financial challenges.
While you’re busy dodging the IRS, @NRA members are serving the American people – first responders, military, and millions of homeowners and business people across our great nation. https://t.co/nfdEJ82zhX

Milano has time and again demonstrated her ignorance on the topic, as she spews Hollywood’s anti-gun, anti-NRA narrative. Her tweet on Monday came on the heels of a wildly unsuccessful protest by the “NoRA” group at this year’s NRA Convention in Dallas over the weekend.
Perfectly displaying the Hollywood left’s blind hypocrisy on the gun control issue, Milano demanded so-called “common sense gun reform” at the barely-attended event. Amazingly, the actress arrived on scene with her bodyguard – who was armed.
The”Charmed” and “Who’s the Boss” star defended herself on Twitter later explaining that the man “was event security, not my bodyguard.”
This was event security, not my bodyguard. But regardless, this security guy has had training and passed a background check. These are the common sense gun reform policies we are fighting for for everyone.
Can’t wait to see the unedited longer video. https://t.co/tHREzjnsZH

Failing to see the disconnect between her sanctimonious ranting and armed security intimidating other law-abiding citizens, Milano earned more mockery and backlash for then not putting her money where her mouth is, reportedly refusing an invitation to meet with NRA spokeswoman Dana Loesch.
Anti-gun Californian @Alyssa_Milano has armed security chase Texans out of a public park simply because they asked if she uses armed defense (that she wants to deny others). Wow. https://t.co/w9Mq3zJXVr

Twitter users appreciated Woods’ take down of the 45-year-old actress and the clarification of who and what the NRA really is.
I served 30 years in the Army. I am greatly offended by her statement.

@Alyssa_Milano appears to be seriously deficient in conducting valid research.?

Wrong @Alyssa_Milano, I am the NRA and others like me, we ARE the American people, we ARE Veterans and active duty, we ARE 1st responders, and we care more than you can imagine. That’s why we are so disgusted by the lies and rhetoric of your side. Try an honest conversation!

Alissa; I strongly disagree, the NRA has always supported all you mentioned and more. I did my research, and am proud to say I am a proud member supporting the NRA. Unfortunately I think you just don’t get it, American Citizens have to come first.

Check your facts, NRA is a non-profit organization. Does not sell guns, or ammo. Teaches gun safety. NO NRA member has committed a mass shooting.
