Not good.

Seems like the latest mob rule violence taking place would only add to NRAs coffers.

Indicating they probably had 200 too many employees.

well those big-ass executive salaries and perks probably should be re-examined, if the most important thing is the group and fulfilling its tenets

They sent me some renewal offers with some good gifts. I was surprised because I already renewed for a couple of years just a couple of months ago. They are a very important group. Part of the problem is that many people don’t see the political realities of what the NRA is dealing with and withhold their money because they do not think that they go far enough.

Fire LaPierre and the donations will return. Problem solved.

Maybe, now hear me out here, maybe if they got rid of Wayne, trimmed those executive perks and salaries, actually FOUGHT infringements instead of trying to sugar coat them, actually did something tangible in certain recent events instead of a blanket “we’re looking into it” statement, then maybe there would be donations.
Bumpstock ban, a-ok.
Ny safe act, “yawn”
Northam, “we’re looking into it” a.k.a. focus grouping metrics and sticking head in the sand. Again.
It’s almost as if nra stands for “negotiating rights away” these days, and idiots go “you haaaaave to unnnerstaaaaand”.
No, if rights are negotiable then they aren’t rights at all.

Things would turn around for the NRA in a New York minute if they would just fire Wayne LaPierre.

"After spending over $30m to help elect Donald Trump in 2016, the National Rifle Association..."

That's why some people oppose the NRA. That's their real motive. This is the time for all loyal conservatives to support the NRA's efforts. Second Amendment rights are important to many who need to be further educated about their rights by the NRA. Trump 2020!

Wayne Lapierre is the reason why the NRA will never get another dime from this life member - donated roughly $5000 over the years which evidently went toward his 2019 $2,255,793 salary package including bonus and benefits, $275,000 for suits, and $243,000 for luxury travel etc etc...

They can go fkcu themselves forever, I'll give what I can afford directly to Trump.

Old news.

Trust the British Marxist “Guardian” to just “discover” it. They are worse than Pravda ever was.

GOA is a good alternative.

Get rid of Wayne Dupree and most of the BOD, they just might turn that trend around.

Until a complete and full audit of the finances of the organization is done and the waste identified there will be few who will hold their nose and keep donating to someone's pocket.

Every organization I have been involved with winds up with the few controlling the many and using the donations as personal piggy banks to get rich. The NRA is no different. Remove LaPierre and donations will start up again. Wayne had good intentions when he started, but has forgotten his primary mission, support and defend the 2nd Amendment.

Now, it's a sweepstakes of the month,that should be audited for winners/losers, super 'special' membership status that has no meaning except to garner more donations.

The EGO, and his minions - Wayne L. wrecked the NRA, thinks he is Charlton Heston.

Maybe it would help if, as a general policy, they stopped endorsing allegedly “pro-gun” democRats like Harry Reid.

I can certainly understand not endorsing anti-gun faux Republicans, but it is NEVER appropriate to endorse ANY democRat.

Probably could use some cutbacks and streamlining.
