"Wayne LaPierre used $275,000 of the group's money to buy luxury clothes at Zegna in Beverly Hills, Calif."

That was over a period of about 13 years involving Ackerman McQueen productions and billed to Ack-Mac.

People deserve a good salary for good work, but if even half of this is true it smells bad for a “non-profit”. This is especially true when the person receiving the giant salary has all their travel, much of their clothing, vehicle (?), and meals paid for on the company dime.

Issue advocacy has many of the same problems as mega-churches and there is a very bad smell coming from the NRA at the moment. No reason to sugarcoat it.

However, it does not change the 2nd Amendment issue at all - especially in the race for the Presidency.

If Wayne took private aircraft at the NRA’s expense to Europe to buy clothes - I have an issue with that. Ack-Mac needed to go and it did. Time will tell.

“That was over a period of about 13 years”

Good point! Only a little over $20,000/year. I guess good suits wear out fast. Or go out of style every year. That is only the annual dues of around 450 people combined.

I won’t be helping to pay it, though. I can vote on the issues and urge others to do the same, and give money to those I think are worth it, all without the NRA.

Oh, so then he only bills the NRA for 21,153 worth of clothes annually.
I guess it makes sense since he only makes around 975,000 a year. That clown needs to go.
