(CNSNews.com) - San Francisco, the "sanctuary city" for illegal aliens -- now crowded with homeless people camping and defecating on sidewalks -- has just declared the National Rifle Association a "domestic terrorist organization."

The resolution, which the Board of Supervisors passed unanimously Tuesday, urges the rest of the country to "do the same."

The resolution accuses the NRA of mustering "its considerable wealth and organizational strength to promote gun ownership and incite gun owners to acts of violence."

It accuses the NRA of spreading "propaganda" aimed at deceiving the public about the "dangers of gun violence"; it says NRA leaders promote "extremist positions, in defiance of the views of a majority of its membership and the public, and undermine the general welfare"; and it says NRA "advocacy" has armed terrorists.

"All countries have violent and hateful people, but only in America do we give them ready access to assault weapons and large-capacity magazines thanks, in large part, to the National Rifle Association’s influence," the resolution says.

The National Rifle Association's lobbying arm says it is "committed to preserving the right of all law-abiding individuals to purchase, possess and use firearms for legitimate purposes as guaranteed by the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution."

The NRA promotes training, safety and education for law-abiding gun owners, and far from inciting acts of violence, it strongly condemns such acts.

Nevertheless, San Francisco Supervisor Catherine Stefani, the resolution's author, told KTVU-television, "The NRA has it coming to them." She said the NRA "exists to spread disinformation and knowingly puts weapons in the hands of those who would harm and terrorize us."

KTVU quoted the NRA as saying, in response: "This ludicrous stunt by the Board of Supervisors is an effort to distract from the real problems facing San Francisco, such as rampant homelessness, drug abuse, and skyrocketing petty crime, to name a few. The NRA will continue working to protect the constitutional rights of all Americans."
