The NRA appears to be imploding.https://www.yahoo.com/news/oliver-north-stepping-down-national-rifle-association-president-150915513.html
Funny how some people react to the media. The media hates the NRA, they will use anything to try and discourage members from staying members, make no mistake, we have guns because of the NRA. Like was mentioned and as with most organizations, occasionally there are power struggles in leadership.

Any pro 2A group could do what they did, if only we could find one that wasn't so out of touch, money hungry and so hard to work with. I think they are driving us over a cliff and would welcome a replacement without all the baggage.

Think about this, if they are so ineffective why do the left and the media hate them? If they made no impact they wouldn't matter!
the more support the better
Probably for the better for both of those guys to leave the NRA leadership. North was a felon which painted a poor picture of the org for those who think that a felon can't legally own guns.Reminds me of the western where both gunfighters kill each other... one bang, both drop slowly to the dust... and the clock strikes 12.

North’s convictions were vacated and overturned in 1991.He is not a felon.
Maybe they can get Gary Busey to replace North as president. He seems about right for the clown show the NRA has become. They need to clean up their house before they lose their nonprofit status.
Yes there are certain people who think they should take guns from everyone but practically that could never happen. What police force would feel comfortable telling a gun lover to give them up. There are police chiefs in our state who say they wont even enforce the most recent legislation, which was really dumb but that's another topic. You think they would get on board with ceasing of guns ? No way, total chaos and civil war would break out. People already get mad about having to wait a day or a week for a gun background check to clear. I couldn't imagine taking guns from those people.
All you have to do is listen to the platform of numerous gun hating Democratic candidates and listen to gun hating democrats in the house to know how important it is to have the NRA supporting pro-gun candidates.
