Is The NRA Going Bye-Bye?

New York Seeks To Dissolve The NRA
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.

Ever were the NRA cease to exist, there are others like them (Gun Owners of America) for instance, who would continue, assuming that they aren't crooked, too. I don't know the ins and outs of the problems with what the management there are doing or have done. The NRA in the dim and misty used to be all about shooting skills and hunting safety. Now they're massively political, and I believe needlessly so. If their officers violated the law, they should be held accountable. Does that mean imploding the whole thing? Idunno.

Guys, don't fight it... This is the NWO. You can fight it but will ultimately lose.

This should be interesting. The NRA may not go away, but some of the top officials caught with their hand in the cookie jar might. We'll have to wait and see how far down the ladder the graft goes.

That’s pretty much how I see it. Lobbying groups are notoriously hard to dislodge, but I think some people are likely to get spanked. Dissolution of the NRA is probably a bargaining chip more than an actual goal.

Easy, cowboy, I'm not fighting anything. I'm just acknowledging that the NRA "leadership" may have been caught with their hands in the cookie jar. Truth be told, I have guns but only use them for target shooting, and that's all I ever have done with them. I "hunt" for my food at the grocery store. Some people actually do need to hunt, and they shouldn't be deprived of that capability.

NFW is the NRA going anywhere. Unless we finally have a civil war and split up.
