Shooter 2.5, Thanks for defending the NRA. I don't have the time or the resources right now to do so. I wish all the freedom loving people, who have a problem with some of the NRA's positions, join the NRA along with GOA, and JPF, and maybe a local group. The NRA is the biggest dog in town and gets noticed by the media and politicions.

As I said on numerous occasions, we do have to work together. No group can do it alone.

The reason we have gun control is because the 95% of the gun owners aren't interested in their Rights. We have to find some way of motivating them.

The NRA haters could do more by explaining what they have done to stop gun control instead of worrying about what the NRA does or doesn't do.

That would motivate that 95%.

As you have indicated their are numerous gun groups fighting the fight for the second amendment. GOA, JPF, SAF, CCW, KABA, and hundreds of other organizations.

My beef with Mr. Haas article is just one. Hate speech, rather than teamwork. Growing up on a farm give me one very important value. We treated our neighbors like brothers and sisters with respect. We are all neighbors in this process.

Mr Haas attack is not one of teamwork. Nor will he engage in debate of the issues. He has brought great damage to the values in NRA by using his given or self appointed titles in his piece.

Stevio perhaps you can debate this issue of hate speech.

And the result of their big-dog status is vast amounts of revenue, not a stronger second amendment. If they are the big dog then they have shamefully squandered that position and the revenue associated with it. Why is the NRA afraid to try a real 2nd amendment case? 60 years and they haven't done it once, and now that somebody else decides that we've all waited long enough, the NRA tries to destroy them? America has traditionally been a supporter of the underdog, and as a result the NRA is losing people over this. They lost me.
