Glenn Beck Uses Nazi Bloomberg Image During Speech At NRA Convention (VIDEO)

If the NRA is trying to appear more moderate these days, it doesn't quite explain why the organization scheduled Glenn Beck to speak at the group's first convention since the tragic shootings in Aurora, Colorado and at Sandy Hook Elementary School .

Beck showed a giant image of New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg delivering a Nazi salute , while criticizing the mayor's extensive gun control efforts.

Beck told the crowd of gun enthusiasts:

When somebody argues for gun control, they are either living in self-imposed ignorance or they are just living an argument of control...I am amazed at how many of my New York friends have become absolute dopes and just will accept the soda ban, the popcorn ban, the salt ban. I've come up with a new advertisement for New York, a new slogan: "You will love New York!"

Beck went on to continue to bash Bloomberg, even bringing up the mayor's use of an AC unit to cool off his SUV , despite the anti-idling laws he enacted.

Random, but the reference did draw some chuckles from the crowd.

Nearly 70,000 people attended the national conference, where another speaker, Rob Pincus, raised eyebrows when he advised members to keep weapons inside their kids' bedrooms as a safety measure.

The organization was also forced to ask a vendor to stop selling bleeding Obama targets .

It includes decades-old footage of National Rifle Association Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre saying the gun lobby group approves of the checks. LaPierre recently testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee that the NRA no longer supports background checks for all gun sales. A Bloomsberg spokesman would say only that the ad cost in the six-figure range....
