Yeah, no big deal. When the democrats are firmly in control; the NRA will be forced to compromise and we can all get on with business grin grin grin

I am guessing you are also upset because the NRA has crashed and burned. We as members are to be blamed for our inattention to our organization.
Things only became widely known when Ollie and Wayne got in a fight over the loot. It's basically time to call in hospice for NRA.

You and gahuntertom must have your nose buried way up between Waynes cheeks to sniff out your information?

Post pictures of your nose buried deeply please grin

So we can't wait for Remington to go bankrupt and the NRA to shut down, explain to me like I'm a little child, how this will make anything in gunworld better.


Imagine a corporate oligarchy so effective, so advanced and fine tuned that its citizens still call it a democracy.

No explanation needed; it can't wait.

Wayne will probably go down with the ship, Capt Ahab style...

Ole Ahab got so target fixated and tangled up with that whale, Mobe-Dick, he lost it all. Ahab got sucked under by the whale he managed to harpoon and kill.

The whale in this scenario, is the dwindling NRA coffers, evidently in a death spiral, bled for so many years by WLP and his cronies. All this while we were continually coerced into giving just a little bit more.

Well, as an Endowment member, I'm done until they clean house. I don't even round up at MidwayUSA any longer, just check the "no thank you" box and move on.

Pepe LePew and the gang of thieves who keep him in power need to get their walking papers, or maybe a long term lease on a small piece of real estate.

His boy likes to pull the trigger; doubt he's ever gutted his own animal though.

Not happy with the NRA mess, but I do wonder...

1. NRA, while not perfect, has been awfully effective with LaPierre. Other gun rights organizations may be more pure in some way or another, but none can claim NRA-under-Pierre's track record of efficacy.

2. With leads me to wonder: What if part of the price of an effective NRA and RKBA is an executive in charge who is a prima donna who spends money like a drunken sailor? Is it worth it? In the big scheme of things, $250k on trips by a washington lobbyist is nothing.

IMO, probably worth it. The left has had similar issues pop and they don;t make too big a deal of it. The offender might be shown the door, but he gets a gift basket on the way out if he was effective. I am thinking of the SPLC, among others. Politics is not bean bag.

The NRA has supported every single piece of federal gun legislation that has ever been passed. I can't believe I have to keep mentioning this.
