The former president of the National Rifle Association allegedly tossed water at an attorney during a deposition in her lawsuit against her former organization, reported Lee Williams of The Gun Writer.
Marion Hammer, a towering figure in firearms politics for years, "filed suit against her former employer on May 8, 2025, alleging that the NRA misappropriated her name, image and likeness and deposited a check meant for an NRA charity into its own account," wrote Williams. "She served as the first female president of the NRA from 1995 to 1998. She is best known for creating the Eddie Eagle GunSafe® program for young children, and for Florida’s concealed-carry licensing initiative."
According to the report, Hammer lost her temper during the deposition, telling NRA counsel Brian Hayden, “You think you’re God. And I think you’re an a--hole,” and that at one point she splashed the water from her glass at Hayden.
Hammer strenuously denies throwing the water, and said of one of the NRA lawyers, “He’s an attorney who can’t make a living, so he’s stayed with the NRA all these years. He hates me and he pushed it. I’m not doing well physically so they hope I will die soon and they won’t have to pay me.”
