I have been an NRA member since 1981 and am thinking of not renewing my membership with them in a few months. I am also a member of GOA (Gun owners of America).
First the NRA did not support the select-fire owners in the 1987 gun ban of more machine gun receiver registrations, and now when people of Texas want to be able to carry a rifle or a holstered handgun in public they call us "Weird" and "Scary". It is legal in 26 other states, why not Texas?
Currently I have a concealed handgun permit and carry a loaded revolver into many of these business locations who got upset, of course I no longer will do business with them.
How has it been working in the other 26 states that allow their citizens the right to carry openly? There has been no problem in Switzerland or Israel where lots of people bring in SIGs or AR-15's into coffee shops. Anyone else thinking of not renewing with the NRA?
