Never mind the fact that the NRA goes into a hiding hole in the ground somewhere everytime there is a dust up, leaving 2nd Amendment Supporters and Law Abiding Gun Owners to fend for themselves, which brings the usual question around these times. Where is the NRA?
A more important question needs to be asked. As we see so-called "pro gun" Democrats warming up to tighter gun controls, according to reports, we may just see where are membership dues went to those who will not help. How many of these Democrats that will come out for gun control laws did the NRA give money to and help get re-elected? Most of us have had concerns with the way the NRA seems to eager to "negotiate" at times. Usually because it comes too close to giving up ground that should never be given up.
Many have the renewal forms coming in the mail. I'm sure many will be watching to see if they want to give any more to those who might actually work against the rights of gun owners/law abiding citizens.
“We exist to protect the second amendment...”
Really? Then why have they not gone after total repeals of acts??? The NRA won’t get another dime of my money till they stop with the “compromise” talk have had on some key issues.
The NRA didn’t even give a state of sorrow for those poor little kids. But they did leave the membership open to be blamed for the sick crime of a nutjob who is not even a gun owner.
You can bet they will “compromise” on future legislation.

“The NRA backs the candidate with the highest pro gun rating. Some win and some don’t.”
Ok, let’s do away with this bogus claim once and for all...the Harry was really a hight rating for pro-gun legislation.
They were able to claim that because his opponent did not have a Senate voting record because she had not been in the Senate. They backed him because he was Sen. Majority leader and likely to win, in their view. Lobbyist are always defaulting to “back the incumbant”. And they knew very well that when it comes to gun control, Harry WILL cave and we’ll be stuck with muskets before it is all over.

Media Savvy??? really??? Yet, not a word of sorrow for the little victims of a nut job who gun control laws did not stop???
No, what they will do is compromise. They are already retreating. Took down their own Facebook page, when they could have just closed it to comments. They backed democrats who signed a party platform calling for a ban on “assault weapons”...and everybody knows Dems have already tried to claim that Beretta with 10 or more rounds can be an “assault weapon”.
Until they prove their worth...I’m not sending another dime.
He said what he said. A press release to cover his butt aint gonna change what he said...and what he is really about.
Got news for you, pal...The NRA lost the battle on the assault weapons ban. Remember...Clinton banned them!
It expired which is why it went away. There was not a repeal bill. NRA has been claiming a lot of bogus victories.
They are like the Rooster who take credit for the sun coming up.

There, you are completely wrong.
I do understand your (and NRA's) reasoning.
I do NOT agree with it.
What kind of gun voting record did she have anywhere? The NRA only rates the candidates, they do not force people to vote for them. Get a grip.
we’ll be stuck with muskets
There is a reason why you fringe drama queens have no credibility.
Why do you clowns expect the NRA to do everything? WTF have you accomplished, other than whining incessantly?
You might want to be talking to the Army guy ...
Reagan was a democrat also.
Post #131 was addressed to him, wasn't it?
I would have SWORN that:
1) #131 appeared in my "pings" page
2) When I went to #131, it was addressed to me.
Now, it is not ...
Maybe I'm just losing it ...
The libs and dims really enjoy seeing the fragmentation of the conservatives. As long as it continues we will not win another national election.
You anti-NRA whiners have.
Didn't you get your fill of politicization from Obama?
I'm not the one that endorsed and supported a gun-control 'Rat ... I'm not the one that fed folks the lie that voting for a gun-control 'Rat was a vote for freedom.
Chris Cox and the NRA did both of those things, to their everlasting shame.
End of discussion. Enjoy the Kool-Aid.
