I'm not a big fan of the NRA, but

I will never join AARP!

Me either.

I used to be a member of the NRA until they sent me a flyer telling me who I should vote for.

Plain and simple, I don't need anyone telling me who to vote for.

The NRA didn't tell you who to vote for. They told you who the endorse. You're free to vote for any gun grabber that you wish. The NRA doesn't hold a gun to you head.

Exactly. They are a pro 2A organization. That means they endorse the best candidate for their stance. Sometimes it's the lesser of two that are not NRA rated "A". This time, it is Romney. We know where BO stands.

I do not see how a proud gun owner can vote for BO knowing his stance on guns, and especially how he voted in IL. He does not want any citizen owning weapons.

Love them or not the NRA is and was the only really effective deterrent and protector of our 2nd Ammendemnt rights. We would not have any guns today for a lack of there strong support and defense of our rights. The ILA even takes on cases to protect individuals from the flagrant letigious a- holes suing people for defending ones rights or self and family.
Not to mention all the excellent training form their Training Couselors and Instructors. What organization helped train our troops during both world wars...thats right the NRA....so folks don't be so hasty and self rightious with your opinions and statements...get the facts first and then thank them for the very rights we hsve today due to there good works. They have done far more good for our cause than most realize and for the skae of a mere $30.00 a year, insurance and a monthly publication is a very small price to pay for what we all receive due to their vigilence and works nationally and state wide.
I for the life of me cannot understand how any freedom loving, responsable gun owner wouldn't be a supporter of the NRA. We all better wake up and smell the damn coffee and quick.....we need to all band together as there is strength in numbers. Last I heard their are 5-6 million NRA members but well over 30 million gun owners...do the math folks, if we band together no way like we did back in late nineies, no way Bullwinkle the dweeb gets back in office.
