The National Rifle Association (NRA) is pushing back on a declaration, which labels the group a “domestic terrorist organization.” The NRA filed a lawsuit Monday, challenging the declaration filed by the city of San Francisco. The gun rights advocacy group is claiming it violates their First Amendment rights of free speech.
This comes after the city’s Board of Supervisors passed a resolution last week, saying the group “spreads propaganda and misinformation about the dangers of gun violence.”
Supervisors drafted the resolution following the deadly shooting at the Gilroy Garlic Festival in California.
