As I said, I don't support the NRA. I support the 2nd Amendment. I'm sorry but I believe lobbying organizations (including the NRA) are in the primary business of making money for them, the issue they "support" comes second to that.
What do you do besides dropping cash on the NRA and call that supporting the 2nd?
I vote 2nd amendment (among other issues), but I'm not a single issue voter. I carry daily open and concealed. I buy from my local gun stores and not big chain merchants. If someone asks I'll give them my honest opinion of guns, laws, and such. I've written my AG, another cities mayors, my congress critters, presidents of colleges I don't attend, even my local police chief on my opinion on issues effecting the 2nd amendment. I've conversed by phone and email to store and mall owner/managers and made my case why their store shouldn't have "no weapons" signs posted (including my local Cabela's and Joe's Sporting Goods). I HIGHLY encourage my Boy Scouts to get their Rifle and/or Shotgun merit badges as two of their electives even though they are not required. I could go on but that's just off the top of my head.
Yes I support and exercise the second amendment and I find it offensive that anyone would say I don't because I'm not a member of the NRA.
Wrong. ‘I AM THE NRA’ as is millions of other of us across the country. It is a very important lobbying organization and its members vote for the directors each year. Right now it is spending a fortune to help pay for the lawyers arguing in front of the Supremes that will try to make sure that the people of DC are able to own firearms. you have been badly misled by the left if you think it is some sort of money making scheme.

How smug...So you are anti capitalist. I love Walmart. I buy my ammo there at deep discount. I generally dont buy firearms there but I have and if they have what I want, I will buy more there.
