It’s happened–from giving millions in donations to political candidates to bankruptcy in little more than a yr.  I knew it was coming when my Rifleman didn’t arrive last month.  Meanwhile, more money is changing hands in gun sales & auctions than ever before.  Rome has burned while the vast majority of gun owners fiddled.

Thanks for the link.  Interesting article.  I hate to see them use “there” in the last sentence instead of “their”.  A good editor would never let that slip by.

I am just a long time life member of the NRA who reads the magazine.  I don’t have any insights into the workings of the organization, though I have never thought much of Wayne LaPierre.  I hope they get things straightened out, and soon.  Gun owners need all the support we can get these days.

That is so true.  We haven’t been getting any from the NRA lately.  California pretty much relies upon the  California Rifle and Pistol Assc.

He is chiefly responsible for this disaster.  These lawsuits were against HIM personally, & could probably have been made moot if he’d resigned.
