Business Insider: The NRA Has Been Outstandingly Successful Where It Really Counts

the organization has had at least 230 full legislative victories on the state level in the past ten years alone

They have earned it. Is your membership current?

They have. Facing that CNN angry mob TV special and answering questions meant a lot to me. Wasn't perfect, but Ms. Loesch did a much better job than Heston and she had a much tougher crowd.

It is. And I sent them a little extra on the side. Feels like a good time to do that.

Last time I checked, he was STILL dead (April 5, 2008), so you can probably let go and move on to other things now.....

Ooops. Sorry. I thought everyone knew he retired as NRA president (death a couple years later). After he was replaced, I was back on with the NRA. Just citing it as an example of a reason someone might disagree with the NRA and not want to be tied to them for life.

The NRA needs to earn my membership. Every year. I won't elect a life time representative of my views. I cut them off for 10 years after Michael Moore used low ball questions and editing to embarrass Charlton Heston in Bowling for Columbine. Did you fire Heston yet?

They need to fear the loss of my money and membership. Just me.
