Should the NRA be dissolved, two things would likely happen:<br /><br />1) More radical groups would immediately have a massive infusion of contributions.<br /><br />2) The NRA would be reformed in another more gun friendly state, with new leadership.Vince Wardehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08422536411591526055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146148016062694502.post-24012189977289428272019-04-21T14:41:33.425-04:002019-04-21T14:41:33.425-04:00^^^this. all. damn. day.^^^this. all. damn. day.Cemetery's Gun Blobhttp://www.twitter.com/cemeterygunblobnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146148016062694502.post-27258793771800438902019-04-20T21:41:37.820-04:002019-04-20T21:41:37.820-04:00NY's goal IS to shut the NRA down by any means...NY's goal IS to shut the NRA down by any means available...Old NFOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16404197287935017147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146148016062694502.post-17858356135425129262019-04-20T18:31:43.599-04:002019-04-20T18:31:43.599-04:00Internal strife, corruption, self-dealing, mis- ma...Internal strife, corruption, self-dealing, mis- mal- and non-feasance of its membership's best interest, and under attack by government that is even more corrupt than the organization itself is. What does that sound like to you?<br /><br />Yeah, NRA is a union and all that that implies. It is hurling headlong with both barrels blazing (heh) toward the same irrelevance and oblivion as Teamsters et al. Can it be saved? Only by burning it down and building anew. the pawnbrokerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16643081755036536592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146148016062694502.post-57180102367692925292019-04-20T08:10:43.567-04:002019-04-20T08:10:43.567-04:00Once they started compromising on my RIGHTS I deci...Once they started compromising on my RIGHTS I decided they were no longer representing me and only wanted the $$$.

Ackerman McQueen has been with the NRA forever, but they fucked up NRA tv, and their fiefdom wont go quietly. <br /><br />I have no doubt that change will be associated with a lot of drama and and agita, but NRA will emerge stronger. They need to be stronger to fight Bloomberg and his minions.dwbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02799793864068767226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146148016062694502.post-33169748872671079212019-04-19T21:55:39.528-04:002019-04-19T21:55:39.528-04:00Some 10 years ago I joined the NRA.
