Wayne Lapierre vs LTC Allen West to Lead the NRA
AmmoLand News ^ | 5/17/22 | Dan Wos

Posted on 05/18/2022 7:43:39 AM PDT by gunwriter

Former congressman, Lieutenant Colonel Allen West, is challenging Wayne Lapierre for his job as Executive Vice President of the National Rifle Association.

A group of former & current NRA board members has called on West to “rescue” the NRA from what they see as poor management. And Allen West answered their call.

The NRA has been under fire from people like New York State Attorney General Letitia James. Some claim that New York is just targeting the NRA because they are the most prominent gun-rights group in the country, while others think that internal corruption led the NRA to the pickle they are in today. AmmoLand News has both sides of the story.

West is not very good at politics so he might as well. His followers can now have a bone thrown their way.

Nobody should be the CEO forever, change is good. The longer politicians or CEO’s stay, the longer they have to institute fraud and bad policy.

If West assumes this mantle, I will consider rejoining the NRA. As for now, no way on earth.

West might be able to shake things back into place that have been shifting. I say yes to West.

Wishful thinking. Only the NRA Board can replace LaPierre with West or anyone else, and LaPierre owns the board (or the vast majority of it.)

Yep....I like West as an individual and he could certainly do the job.

LaPierre is why I no longer give money to the NRA.

I don't have many regrets, but...

Boy do I regret ever giving my home phone # to Wayne LaPierre.

While I think Wayne Lapierre needs to go, replacing him with Allen West would be a very, very bad move. As a life member, I think they need strong, committed 2nd amendment businessman, not a personality with controversial past, likely to be a distraction from NRA’s mission and challenges, many that Wayne Lapierre and his cronies created.

Wayne Lapierre and the entire board of cronies need to go. The organization needs to clean house and also see restitution from these folks and their friends.

Our caller ID computer audio announces the calls as:

The article mentions that Wayne Lapierre’s salary for one month is more than the average American’s yearly salary.

That seems like a lot of money. Anybody know LaPierre’s salary?

Someone that is there for only one reason, the good of the organization and not personal promotion or enrichment.

In the future, there is a phone app called textnow where you can get a free number (though you gotta use it at least once a month to,keep,it,active) to,use for,any sites that require a phone number. And If you start getting too much spam on that number, you can a,ways get another.

Also, use mailinator.com for email if sites require onemto,sign up,to. Just choose any user name, but make It kinda unique, like letsgobrandonyourfruadulency@mailinator . Com, because if you use generic, there will ots of emails to,that address to sort through. It’s a temp email where they delete messages after a day or so.
