Just heard a blip on the radio!
Something about New York AG filing a suit attempting to dissolve NRA!
Anybody see or hear similar?

Yes! Hot news across the world, but not in the USA.

I know New York had a problem with the Conceal Carry coverage NRA offered. I am not sure how that came out.
Are they going after the NRA or the NRA-ILA? Separate groups technically. The NRA can't lobby, the NRA-ILA can. I have heard rumours of loans but like most of what they do nothing can be verified.
There will be some big parties on Capitol Hill if they do succeed. I suppose they will sell off the NRA assets, turn ranges into urban gardens and give the leftover funds to the latest terrorist groups that have leaped to prominence in the wake of Floyd.

Perfect time for them to attack when so many on our side are against the NRA.

IMO, the NRA is the weakest it's been in my adult life. LaPierre is about as likeable as a dog turd on your shoe, and the Democrats smell blood in the water...

Nothing at all the matter with LaPierre, unless you`re a liberal, anti-America, anti-freedom POS. In case you haven`t been paying attention, liberals want civil war in the United States. The first shots have already been fired, at law enforcement, and at innocents as the marxist blm, paid protesters are stirring up dissention and chaos. Liberals obviously aren`t intelligent enough to grasp that in actuality, NRA and GOA are their friends, because we will preserve the Second Amendment. NRA and GOA are the peaceful means to that end. |

I think I figured out who really writes those nice newsletters the NRA sends me!

If you actually read up on what this lawsuit is about and what the accusations are and evidence she has, yeah the NRA is in trouble and most of us that are or were members should be a bit ticked off. Read the lawsuit with an open mind. Take out the name NRA and Lapierre and read with an open mind and get back to me. I fully understand that most on here are fans of them but it's a bit like Democrats and Republicans. Obama or Trump can do zero wrong in their respective fans eyes. I'll tell you the NRA won't get a single dime from me from this point forward unless the whole organization goes through a massive cleaning at the highest levels.

I'm sure LaPierre loves guys like you, but I have a feeling he's out @ the NRA before all is said and done. BTW, I'm not a liberal, I'm not anti-american, or anti-freedom. Much less a POS. |

I'm sure LaPierre loves guys like you, but I have a feeling he's out @ the NRA before all is said and done. BTW, I'm not a liberal, I'm not anti-american, or anti-freedom. Much less a POS. I did not mean to infer that you are, I was making a general statement. I doubt that LaPierre considers for a second what guys like me think. Although I am an NRA Life-Endowment member, NRA has been a huge disappointment to me as well, but not for the reasons, apparently that you`re disgruntled with them. I`m put out with NRA in part because it took so long for them to finally part ways with chris cox. cox was a drag on the organization, and was a detriment to our cause, he didn`t hold the Second Amendment in the right perspective, and hurt us much more than helped us. Beyond that, NRA has embraced and supported soft gun control in the past, and even the recent past. NRA had begun to act as if the Second Amendment was theirs to bargain and negotiate with, and they were willing to piecemeal the thing away, to what end, I have no idea. My only thought towards NRA today is that, although I`m extremely disappointed with them, I would never renounce my membership as did the RINO, globalist bushie the first. Having said that, this is why today, I much prefer Gun Owners of America over NRA. GOA has shown no signs that they will accept gun control in any way, shape or form, which is not only critical, but makes sense if you understand why the Founders left us with the Second Amendment. It has nothing to do with hunting, target shooting, or even really, self-defense from criminals. In the minds of the Founders, the Second Amendment was the key to We the People being able to adequately resist a despotic, tyrannical government. The supreme court got this much right at least when they determined that no militia membership was required since the Second Amendment is an individual right. Where they got it wrong, is when they inserted the illogical thinking of the day by saying that government had the authority to check the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding American citizens by allowing any gun control at all. This makes zero sense. How would it be logical to allow the entity we are supposed to be able to, as Jefferson said, "as a last resort", resist by taking up arms, to have the authority to keep us from having the arms readily available that would be necessary to properly resist them. The Second Amendment is one of those "checks and balances" that were put in place to keep government accountable. And no one has been able to explain how the words "shall not be infringed" are to be interpreted to somehow mean to allow some government infringement. NRA is a grand American icon. We still have somewhere between 5 and 6 million members estimated. As with any organization manned and run by fallible people, no doubt they have their faults and issues, but I`m not going to put very much confidence in reports by a liberal, puppet media as to claims of mismanagement by NRA. I don`t even trust them to call the weather right, e.g., if they said it was raining outside, I wouldn`t believe it unless I had gone to the window to see for myself. I do however, wish that NRA had the same ferociousness that prompted them to send out the infamous jack-booted thugs letter after the shameful debacle at Ruby Ridge. This is what they lack today. |

I'll tell you the NRA won't get a single dime from me from this point forward unless the whole organization goes through a massive cleaning at the highest levels. There are an estimated 97,000,000 law-abiding gun owners in the United States, yet, only an estimated 5-6 million NRA members, and roughly 2.5 million GOA members. It`s nothing new for the few of us to do the work and pay the way for the majority. |

If you remember I posted a good year ago about NRA and why I will not support them anymore. The organization is corrupt. I fired NRA and hired GOA a couple years ago. It's is a bummer when you have to write on bad news. Sometimes it's hard to swallow. It does seem that a lot of company's and organizations are corrupt. I guess this is the new normal. My guess someday I'll fire GOA and hire a new organization.

If proven, and I'll guarantee the AG of New York isn't going to hold a press conference if the evidence isn't there, you're okay still giving your money to them? Okay with Wayne and the higher ups using it as a personal bank. Okay with ghost employment. This has nothing to do with supporting them, it's about what they did. |
