And none of this is to say that LaPierre hasn’t done bad stuff...unethical, maybe even technically illegal. But he really isn’t doing anything that every CEO of these nonprofits and foundations are doing. And frankly, money wise, the NRA is small potatoes compared to many of them. But the reasons it and LaPierre are being targeted have nothing to do with alleged misdeeds, they are purely political.
Money has never been the reason the NRA was powerful. It really doesn’t have that much. A guy like Bloomberg could write a check for several years of NRA operating expenses and never miss it at all.
Does the NRA still have the video up supporting Red Flag Laws?
What if all that money that does no good were suddenly transferred to an organization that actually stands up for gun owner's rights, such as GOA?
If the NRA would stop supporting gun control and having anti-gun folks at the helm, they would get more support.
