Hey Jerry, remember that guy you arrested who talked your ear off all the way to the jail, making excuses for his failure to do what he was supposed to?
Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

I don't belong to the NRA. It is only because of all the junk mail they waste money on.
I do belong to the Second Amendment Foundation. The SAF is the group doing ALL the heavy lifting. They are the group that brought suit in Heller v. DC and McDonald v Chicago . AND they won both cases before SCOTUS.
I prefer to support SAF rather than NRA I will check into that white, thank you.
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

I prefer to support SAF rather than NRA But you belong to something that's the point. I don't belong to the GOA but I know little about them just the ones running down the NRA while not educating people about other options is a opportunity lost. IMO Who says a guy can't belong to both or something else even or all of them.

I know what I'm promoting just can't figure out what you are? Oh, I thought we started to ask each other random off topic questions lol. The thing is, I'm not trying to promote anything or play games. I am trying to converse about why the NRA only has 6 million members when it should have at least 5 or more times that. I believe that the current members should be upset with them, yes. I also know that some don't join because they're to cheap, some because they're paranoid, and some because they are on hard times. But I also believe that some don't join because they don't want a pro-gun Org promoting gun control. You and others have said you're not happy with some of the things the NRA does, what have you done about it?

Your just asking a lot of questions but not giving many answers but by the end of the day I hope a few guys decide to kick in and support the NRA or the GOA or what ever but if you have nothing better to offer then is comes across like sour grapes. In the end just a road to no place it seems like. IMO 1.5 million GOA VS 6 million NRA I see 7.5 million what do you see.
If you spent that energy trying to tear the NRA down on getting people up to speed on the GOA (many don't know squat about them) we all might be further ahead then. Just saying I cannot figure what your promoting the way your going about it is all!

The ones complaining most have nothing real to offer and do nothing about anything but think they will make a change by some miracle or they just like to play reindeer games. The NRA has made the difference for years this gun control BS has been going on for many years and the NRA has been there.
Always "that Guy" that lives for the 1%, unicorn, bigfoot chance of getting a fact right. Make a positive post and they will come to pee on the parade. This is your very first post on this thread. You pointing fingers is funny, hello pot, I'm kettle. Your a shining example of the NRA lol. I apologize to the OP, this got derailed a bit but I listed my reasons why I think that most gun owners don't support the NRA. I did join the GOA and will look into the SAF. I love the 2nd, just can't get behind the NRA. Hopefully the Lt. Col. will bring them around.

Questions have been asked and answered time and time again and you proved my point and like I said it's not all about you but you think it is.

"...nobody asked for the NRA put down did we?"
Take another look at the thread title. It sure looks to me like the OP was inviting anti-NRA folks to come in and comment.
Now, I'm not picking on you, just debating a point you made.

I quit when NRA president sent out a letter in support of Tim McVey I bet the NRA would endorse a convicted child molester, if he claimed to be for the Second Amendment. And the NRA will only endorse Republicans these days, no matter how pro-gun the opponent is. I am not supporting a wing of the Republican Party. Jim
