You wouldn't mind the NRA out of NC and I'd like to see them out of SC. Forty-eight to go and all that money would be available for principled and no compromise organizations.

The NRA is like a jaded politician - Fritz Hollings for instance - interested only in re-election and maintenance of power.

I personally prefer Lousisana's "open carry" law..and i frequently use it...have been stopped several times in shopping centers for having sidearm strapped on...early 20 something deputies surround me and yell drop the weapon..i calmly tell them i am not holding a weapon....i am wearing one...they ask why do you have a pistol on..and i respond because it is legal in this state or don't you know the law? usually they don't and call a supervisor who immediately tells them i am not breaking any law but then strongly suggests that i put the weapon in my vehicle, to which i reply, is the sheriff's dept going to be responsible if i get robbed or my vehicle stolen??

acouple of stuttering minutes later, i smile and thank him and go on my way...my wife tells me one day some young pissy pants scardy cat is going to shoot me and that is probable....so i tell her to sue the pants off them and live happily ever after.

Your "No Compromise" group can't even match the four million NRA members.

Motivate some of those 95% of the gun owners who are doing nothing and I might get impressed. As it stands now, the only thing your "no compromise" group thinks it can do is take members from other organizations.

Tying your shoe laces in the morning without mentioning the NRA might be a start.
