Quote:New York state's attorney general sued to dissolve the National Rifle Association on Thursday, alleging senior leaders of the non-profit group diverted millions of dollars for personal use and to buy the silence and loyalty of former employees.
The lawsuit filed in a Manhattan court by Attorney General Letitia James alleges NRA leaders paid for family trips to the Bahamas, private jets and expensive meals that contributed to a $64 million reduction in the NRA's balance sheet in three years, turning a surplus into a deficit.
And Trump responded with his usual ‘they’re coming for your guns’ nonsense.

At best the heads might get financially hurt or removed. But unfortunately the NRA is like Jason in Friday The 13th. And even if they did go bust, which I'd love to see. There would still be 5 million morons who who'd simply move over to other gun orgs like the NSSF.
I agree Boru, "They're coming for your guns" is nonsense. The left doesn't want 100% of firearms banned, but it still remains they are made like candy and handed out like candy.
The original NRA when it started out was a safety org. It wasn't a profit lobby. Back in the 70s Wayne turned it into a corporate lobby.
