It was only after the death of my brother, a life member of the NRA, that I learned the truth about Gore. Our father passed away a day or two before Election 2000, and though I think my brother voted for Mr. Bush, I voted Gore. Our family was Democrat, our parents held local township office positions.

I was lurking here in 2000, though I didn't learn the truth about Gore until I read back-issues of American Rifleman magazine. Was the truth about Gore posted here? I don't know--if I had learned here what I learned from the NRA publication, I certainly would not have voted for Gore.

I did not mean to insinuate that the NRA is somehow an evil organization that is opposed to firearms, pro democrat, or liberal. The original comment that I responded to was something along the lines of "we need to all work together". On many issues I would agree. My disagreement is not with the intent or mission of the NRA. It seems to me that they have conceded the war and are doing their best to slow down the eventual confiscation of firearms. It is simply my opinion, based on my own personal experiences. I do not consider them an enemy at all, I just seriously differ with what appears to me to be the appeasement approach. A lot of good information can be aquired from them.
