I just got my Rifleman and was less than impressed with the "narrative." All these new people we've never heard of before, except LaPierre? I have never heard of, nor seen, this Ouillet guy, which is a bad thing. If he's so talented, why weren't he AND Chris Cox routinely on the national talking-head shows? Or is the hierarchy all about star power and keeping that power?
NRA is grassroots, diverse, but to the world, it's long been two people in suits. The organization's greatest strengh is its membership, but you'd never know that from the public image. I wonder how much of what is supposed to belong to NRA, like "I;m the NRA" is actually copyrighted by AckMac.

The NRA doesn't need any mansions and Wayne can buy that exact name suit at Saks off fifth for $800 and get the second one free. They're living like kings off that $400+ mil we send them every year.

Nothing to wonder about. He's on his side. Period. And screw everything else.

It's weird agreeing with people on here. I just sent GoA more money. And I call and email every time they send out an alert. Seems like I never hear from NRA except when they have their hand out.

It’s not just Wayne. What about all those Board members and officers who continue to excuse and support him. How are you going to get changes in that situation?

Anyone know the protocol for replacing the members who resigned. We need to get replacements in that will hold the executives accountable. Hell, I’m nobody, but would be willing to step up and defend our rights.

The people defending his buying those expensive suits must really be into fashion. I don't see the value. It's like putting lipstick on a pig.

The board is picked to back up the bureaucracy. They have no power.

The latest Rifleman was a joke, mega company propaganda.

When Pres. Pete Brownell couldn’t get back to Montezuma, IA fast enough, when Ollie bowed out and the rats started exiting right and left, we knew it was bad. It’s probably worse than bad.

And when we need the NRA the most, they’re playing games, living high, spending on themselves.

Not a good day for the 2A...

Dems smell blood. They going in for the kill.

Yeah, I got call last week from their contract solicitors wanting money. I let him run his spiel and politely explained to him that the NRA wasn't getting any more money from me until LePew resigns and leaves the organization. He said that that was what most of the people they were calling were doing also. He also said that that information does and will find its way up the chain in the organization. I even mentioned the the timing couldn't be worse and he agreed.

Got a call from the NRA, wanting money. I told the guy I was an Endowment member, but wasn't sending them any money until they cleaned house.

He didn't seem surprised, bet it wasn't the first time he'd heard that. I told him to relay my message to HQ, said he would.

Money talks, B.S. walks. The last Rifleman was knee deep in propaganda B.S. If enough of us take a firm stand when they call, maybe we'll get our message delivered. And, they WILL keep on calling, I'd say more and more as things heat up. Maybe eventually there will be a "come to Jesus" realization of what they've done and things will get set straight.

Drying up their largess is the ONLY thing that will get their attention.

If he had any morals and really cared about the NRA he would resign over all this. He will not resign as the gravy train he is on and the lap dogs he has surrounded himself with give him the feeling he is untouchable. Which at this point its sad to say he is.
