Fine organization, the NRA. But when the Feds confiscate their records, they’ll know just who you are and where to find you.

Though I guess by that time they’ll have done the same to FR.

The NRA is the nation’s oldest and largest civil rights organization.

Most adults are in favor of our Second Amendment rights, and the NRA only tries to oppose the efforts of rich donors to gun control efforts.

There are less than 6 million members in a country of over 320 million people, so there’s enormous potential. It will be interesting to see what the latest surge in new memberships will amount to. Will enough people with the American pioneer spirit lead an unprecedented wave?

A Democrat lawyer was on commie government radio yesterday (NPR), talking about the Democrat plan for gun control. According to him, the established plan is to take gun control “steps” in “increments.” Watch closely to see who is already agreeing with Democrats on those increments.

This is an inaccurate picture of the substantial power that the NRA wields in the political process.

And that is EXACTLY the image the Libs want to project!

I have never missed a vote. And I am an NRA member. That is where the NRA’s power comes from.

The NRA Is Not Your Typical Interest Group.... Its millions of members are motivated by ideology, not money, and they vote in droves.

And this is different from other interest groups... how?

From the article: The NRA is looking to defend CERTAIN PRINCIPLES that its members are committed to, often passionately.

WHAT absolute BS!

It’s defense of the Constitution and Bill of Rights!
