There's infighting over the NRA on this very site...........There's a number of their detractors here that consider the NRA a "take your money and run" sell-out organization.
Regarding the anti-gun initiative here in Washington, one of the busiest anti-gun groups out here is Washington Ceasefire. This organization is run by one Ralph Fascitelli, who is an immigrant from New York. He acts as if he represents the views of all Washingtonians, always saying “We this and we that” like he had a turd in his pocket. He’s welcome to go back to NY where he belongs; we don’t need his kind.
I wonder if the root word of Fascitelli is fascist?

30calgal’s story shows how important it is for gun owners to join and support the NRA and similar pro gun lobbies. A bill was up in the State of Washington legislature that would make legal ownership and use of firearms more difficult. The NRA & 2nd Amend. Foundation got the word out and recruited a local person who would well present our pro gun views to the legislative committee. Without pro gun lobbies that deliver, not just beg for donations, we do not have a voice.
