East Liverpool, OH 42 recommendations mt999999 Member What? What is the correlation between Net Neutrality and the NRA? I don't get it... This makes no sense.



Edit: The way this is worded, it literally sounds like a joke.

00000 23 recommendations wasvznowftr Member Payola The NRA is nothing but a lobby for gun manufacturers and Pai is a lobbyist disguised as an FCC chairman.

Makes sense to me.

3 edits 17 recommendations TIGERON Member oh he's courageous all right I want to see his bravery stand up against the massive lawsuits and the equally enraged public heading his way.



1/3 of the country's population are racist ignorant bigots who are going to wake up and find they can't access their porn as it will be heavily throttled or nickled and dimed. And hint Pai: they hate anyone who is not white. When was the last time you looked in the mirror? Also those same people giving you that award voted to keep anyone with your pigment jailed, murdered or out of the country.



The rest are going to see higher bills and no internet service improvement.



He and his family will spend the rest of their lives living behind bullet proof glass. I hope selling out the nation to greedy corporations was worth it.



Good luck lying Pai....you're gonna need it LOL.

New Orleans, LA 15 recommendations Tchaika Member More proof that the NRA is just a wholly owned subsidary of the far right... Anyone catch Wayne LaPierre's CPAC speech? It was a rambling rant about "neo-European Socalists" that had almost nothing to do with gun rights.



Once upon a time the NRA was politically neutral on non-gun issues. They endorsed pro-gun Democrats (yes, there is such a thing) and didn't speak out on other issues. They are cutting their own throat with this and the eventual blowback is going to fall on the vast majority of reasonable gun owners, not just the minority of a minority of black helicopter fearing nutjobs that are now dictating their agenda.

Salinas, CA 13 recommendations AppFarmer Member I think Chairman Pai just might be finding support for a new job... When he is no longer able to do any more damage to the FCC, he'll be a natural fit as this administration's choice to lead ATF.

Georgetown, TX 13 recommendations Ut98Ex Member Courage? Courage to do the major telco corporations bidding and using questionably ethical and false information in order to repeal net neutrality? If that is courage then yeah, I guess he deserves it.



He also deserves to be punched in the face though.

Troy, NY 9 recommendations Rogue Wolf Member Well, of course. A corporate shill whose most stressful decision is what tie to wear as he sells this country to his moneyed masters gets a "courage under fire" award.



But the kids who were actually shot at are called "crisis actors" because they're daring to complain about getting shot at.

united state 9 recommendations Roadkill Premium Member RE: NRA award to Mr. Punching Bag Face I used to have a bit of respect for the NRA back in the day. Now; I stared unbelieving at the article title and had to shake my head to clear it. I was absolutely shocked, but it has been a while since I even considered to become a member. The NRA just backed two of my most hated organizations; the FCC and Comcast. I have to ask,"What would Charlton Heston do?" I'd like to see Mr. Macho and Dirty Harry fix the NRA setting them on the right foot. I have absolutely no respect for the NRA and only mention the NRA when speaking derogatorily of it now.

Littleton, CO 2 recommendations anonymouse Member Ajit Pai deserves a pie on his face for abusing FCC's responsibilities ... Who is Ajit Pai working for? The big corporations ... I can sense Trump's frustrations and his anti-people policies coming through in Pai's strange decision making.

What are these clowns working towards?

The greater good of the people, consumers or for enrichment of ISPs, the rich, NRA, gun manufacturers?
