Just received my monthly magazine from the NRA, with ballot for board of directors.
Is it worth my time to vote, or should I just trash it?

I don't care about an organization that doesn't care about me. Fire the current board, and CEO, and then we can talk. Until then, I have zero interest in the NRA

Threw mine in the trash. I don't believe its possible to fix the NRA without just stopping the flow of money.
The situation sucks as we really could use a strong NRA now.
Sending my money to GOA and SAF.

Thanks
Was thinking that I would run mine through our shredder.

I am going to vote for every candidate that is not already a member of the BOD, then write in "LAPIERRE OUT"

Only vote for the "outsider" candidates or petition candidates. The groupthink needs to end, and Wayne needs to wane. WE members want OUR power focused where it belongs, on protecting OUR rights, not Wayne's wardrobe.

The last time I received my monthly magazine from the NRA (which was 2-3 years ago, despite being a Life Member for around 30 years) I wrote in "Tom Gresham" as my only vote for the board. Anybody who knows who Tom is, and his attitude toward WLP, knows what I meant.
That's about when my monthly "lifetime" magazine stopped showing up.

Funny, but I haven't seen my American Rifleman in a while either. I guess I can expect to NOT see the one with a ballot in it either.
Whatever.
FUCK the BoD and their stranglehold on the organization.
Don't be the darkness.
America will perish while those who should be standing guard are satisfying their lusts.

John, I don't think you've missed much.

Old Toot,
Yep, I was privileged to know Grits very well too!

For the first time in a couple of decades, I TOSSED mine in the trash... Until and unless WLP is gone, my support will be gone as well..

Last time, I wrote "None of the Above" and mailed it.

Everything I get from the NRA, I write "Get rid of Wayne or no more $." on it and mail it back to them.
