NRA membership

[Bean Counter]

I belong to GOA.  No banquets, or movie stars.  Just a constant pressure on the anti gun people.  I like the fact that on all major issues the send send pre- addressed, pre -written messages to our senators, and congressmen.  Just sign and put a stamp on them and send them in.  I belonged to the NRA for many years, and they never did anything like that.  $20.00 a year and no phone calls.  I know this year they took one or two different issues to the courts and won.  They could not get the NRA to join in.  But no matter what, at least join a pro gun organization.  We are in for one big fight.

I agree with you that we are in a big fight. I also believe that Organizations like GOA and the 2nd Amendment Foundation are more effective than the NRA.  The NRA makes a lot of noise and brings in a lot of money, but they don't get much done. Thanks for pointing that out.

sure, these other orgs. are effective , However there membership is certainly not the same or even close. And lastly GOA and 2ND AF are not under full scale attack by the Media, at this time.  If our opponents can beat the NRA , then all others will fall.
 IMHO
Merry Christmas to all.

Maybe that's a good thing. The media falsely attribute a lot of SAF's successful lawsuits to NRA. If I were SAF, GOA, JPFO, etc. that just wouldn't sit well with me.

Really ??


Happy New Year , it will be interesting!!

NRA takes the heat while others do the work. Maybe it keeps *censored* media thugs off the backs of the organizations actually getting things done.

I'd ask what exactly the NRA takes undo credit for but instead I'd strongly recommend people read the NRA legal and legislate web sites. I am all for belonging to as many groups as possible I'll post a bunch later.

Together we stand,divided we fall.

I don't care who gets the credit. As long as the job gets done.

People on here have asked for less division and infighting on this topic. If you want to contribute to NRA, feel free. I don't think it will hurt the Second Amendment. I don't feel like giving them any money due to their ethics.

I have joined GOA and SAF--so its not like I wont open up my wallet.

As you said, the "media" credits the NRA, the NRA has no control of "media" credits.
