WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles) – The National Rifle Association (NRA) — American’s powerful gun lobby –has accepted President Barack Obama’s challenge to put an end to gun violence in the country.

Yesterday, a tearful Obama issued several executive orders that would, among other things, license gun sellers, strengthen background checks for buyers, better deal with mental health issues, and bringing gun safety technology to the 21st century.

In response, the NRA, has issued an unusual, emotional plea to its more than 5 Million dues-paying members, to lay down their guns in favor of the less fatal pocket knife.

In fact, in its membership recruitment drive, the NRA is offering a free pocket knife to anyone who signs up for al $25 annual fee.

Will American finally see an end to gun violence?
