I want a pro-active NRA that makes expanding gun rights a top priority and not just political fodder of death of a thousand cuts.


I want a NRA that doesn't compromise and engages in strong grassroots efforts at a state level -- which they do not do.


From a relative outsider's perspective the NRA looks more and more like big .gov; more and more money going in, less, and less services coming out.

Hard to do when you are busy stealing carry guard IP and trying to make money off of it.

Ignoring, and avoiding the obvious won't make it any cheaper, or better.

Agree . I have not been a NRA member for a long time .
They just don't seem to fight hard , Much like most Republicans in office .

Randygmn wrote:North wants the NRA to retreat from politics and focus on gun safety and hunting. In other words, the FUDD agenda. He got a few high profile board members to support him. The headlines made it seem like the majority of the board supported North. That was false as North just essentially resigned. Turns out the majority of the Board supports Wayne. Also turns out North was also being paid by Ackerman. That’s dirty. Anyway, now Wayne can return his focus on getting rid of Ackerman and the democrat terrorists who are trying to usurp, ignore and erase the Second Amendment.

I've got problems with Ack/Mac, and I have problems with LaPierre.

But if that's what Nortg was trying to do, he was heading in the wrong direction.

Leaked letters reveal details of NRA chief's alleged spending
Mark Maremont at The Wall Street Journal wrote:National Rifle Association Chief Executive Wayne LaPierre billed the group’s ad agency $39,000 for one day of shopping at a Beverly Hills clothing boutique, $18,300 for a car and driver in Europe and had the agency cover $13,800 in rent for a summer intern, according to newly revealed NRA internal documents.

The documents, posted anonymously on the internet, provide new details of the clothing, travel and other expenses totaling more than $542,000 that Ackerman McQueen Inc. alleges Mr. LaPierre billed to it.

I just got a letter from Wayne asking if I wanted my name on the patriot wall. Was thinking I’d check the box that I would and then also write on there with a Sharpie “Not one more dime until Wayne is gone!”
