Read today on Breitbart the NRA has cancelled the convention in Houston (Sept 3-5).  Had planned on going but doesnt look like its going to happen.  Just wanted to give a heads-up in case anyone booked hotels or flights.

After the failed bankruptcy debacle (how many more thousands wasted in legal expenses?), Wayne doesn’t dare show his face.  Though I’ve been to three in the past, I’d never attend another with him in charge.

Hadn’t planned on attending but was very disappointed to read it was cancelled. Lots of exhibitors took a big hit but at least they may be able to cancel travel and lodging reservations. Big loss for the Houston gig businesses too.

No, the BIG loss is to NRA’s reputation, lost, if not forever, for a long time to come.
