Ransomware gang says it targeted National Rifle Association

Which is funny, when you think of all of the Russian Mob money the NRA laundered into Republican Election Campaigns.

Let's just focus on sending thoughts and prayers to the NRA in their time of grief.

For an organization that is filled with ex-military types they sure are a bunch of tools. They trip over their tongues over a pretty Russian spy as if they have never heard about the old Russian tactic of the honey trap.

I remember when IKEA came to Japan in the late 80’s they flopped, they later restructured and came back and now they’re flourishing. US gun holders won’t concede with or without the NRA.

Getting filthy rich off blackmail.

By choosing unpopular targets they are attempting to raise their own moral standing, and justify their existence. Honor among thieves? Moral code of the Yakuza, etc.?
