I have a concern that the NRA is gradually becoming infiltrated at the top by those who purposes are not gun liberty, but a different, perhaps corporate attitude that seeks to subvert gun liberty.
They achieve this infiltration with the promise of corporate wealth, and perhaps they do deliver it, for a while. But their purpose, their real agenda, is to establish dependency. “It is easier to get a lot of money from a dozen corporations than it is to get a little money from tens of thousands of rank and file members.”
I have this dubious frame of mind, because this most recently happened to the Boy Scouts, to their detriment.
The left is truly masterful at such infiltration and subversion. Hundreds of charities, foundations, and clubs have been taken over, and their original purpose discarded in favor of the leftist agenda.
So the question needs to be asked: what about the NRA?
Which is why most gun clubs have bylaws limiting the number of new members that will be accepted in any year.
