Gunner I don't think protests are the ILA's function. Lawyers and court is who they are http://www.nraila.org/legal/article...e-commonly-used-for-lawful-purposes.aspx

probably so w4bear
but I'm thinkin if the NRA is serious about increasing their membership they should do some more visible things that would attract gun owners to their ranks
I don't know what they do with their money, but it certainly doesn't seem to include bussing folks in to protest like the SEIU did in Wisconsin.
Or running primetime commercials making the arguments that we all sit here and make with each other.
I'm thankful for the NRA and their efforts, but I think they could be more visible in a better light.
All you ever see of them is derogatory from the antigunners, I don't know why they don't fight back with public service announcements about who they are, what they do and whom they represent.
I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

You must have missed the link I posted. The NRA is being overwhelmed on all fronts. They crash, we can kiss it goodbye.

the sonofabitches need to get busy. You [bleep] ay. All it takes is cash. The democrats have all they can spend; in case you haven't noticed. BTW; I'm the NRA, and I spend all I can afford, and volunteer as well. What do you do?

Go march round Connecticut; but their judge has already ruled. They lost because of too many democrats, and a democrat judge. Doesn't make it right; it's just the way the cards fell. Read all about it http://www.nraila.org/legal/article...e-commonly-used-for-lawful-purposes.aspxBut hey, lets blame the NRA

People may need to take a page from the playbook of the Ukrainians, except with guns in hand not rocks. A few hundred or a thousand armed citizens storming the capital building and arresting the politicians inside while refusing to leave. It, like in the Ukraine, would make news worldwide and send a clear signal to all politicians that we're done being pushed around. while that is happening in the capital, others need to take a page from Lexington and wait for the responce from the government and line the streets and allys to seal off the capital city streets.
I hope it never comes to that, but something dreadful could be ignited with a heavy handed illegal activity from the politicos. If the cops try to do it piecemeal, they may walk up to a car window and say hello to S&W or Mr. Ruger. If people get pushed far enough, they can be capable of anything, no matter how insane it sounds.
You live in New York and you're giving advice on how to gain back freedom in ones state? Travis what makes you think I'm not working here in New Yorkistan for the coming storm? Imperial Andy also has not come out and said he was sending COPS door to door to get our guns. All but 3 or 4 of our Sheriffs have told Andy to go F ck himself. 52 county legislatures have said go Fu k yourself to Andy. local police unions have said they don't and won't support the SAFE ACT and we have a Federal Lawsuit making it's way thru the court system we have doubled our statewide NRA memberships to the largest in the country

The power of the people can't be denied and rulings can be overturned.

I support the NRA of course and am a member.
But, I doubt they will organize a picket demonstration...
I have not seen them move fast on things either. Usually they move as a preventive to legislation passing, or support the lawsuits that strike down the offending law. But, they don't offer much in the way of knee-jerk reactions. More successes are had and more battles are won when calmer heads prevail.
I do know that without the NRA the liberals would have had ALL our guns long ago.

rulings can be overturned. Any idea how many court cases nation wide the NRA is looking at? Every state that has a democrat in it, has pissed right down the NRA's back. It's a concerted effort to overwhelm and eliminate. Rulings can be overturned, unless the supremes get 1 more liberal dik face; or the senate picks up a half dozen more liberal dik faces to ratify the un small arms agreement. We've never been closer to loser our guns than at this point in history.

Agreed, but any warrior knows you go to where the immediate heat is, and right now that's CT.

I see them as akin to our Federal gov't, give me some bang for my buck and I'll gladly send you the bucks.
I'm grateful for their working with legislators, courts etc.
but as gunner says, they are our voice.
if they sent out contribution forms stating "send us $100 and $90 will be used to organize a peaceful demonstration in CT"
I believe they'd get a lot more donations than the way they currently do things.
