NRA sues San Francisco over 'terrorist organisation' label
Atlanta | The National Rifle Association (NRA) sued San Francisco on Tuesday (AEST), saying a declaration by the city's Board of Supervisors that officials should limit businesses linked to the NRA because it is a "terrorist organisation" was effectively a blacklist.
The confrontation follows heightened debate in the United States following a spate of mass shootings, including one last month at an El Paso Walmart in which 22 people were killed and about 24 wounded in the city near the US-Mexico border.
