As in the past, at only 4 million members, the National Rifle Association (NRA) is virtually powerless to do anything about new gun control except to make compromises -- even though there is no room in the Second Amendment for compromise.
[T]he right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.The Leftist, anti-liberty organizations, companies, and individuals on the NRA anti-gun list literally overwhelm the efforts of the relatively puny efforts of the NRA to protect the civil rights of an estimated 100 million (and growing by an estimated 4.5 million new gun owners per year) gun owners.
Understand this: The NRA isn't so widely hated because it's powerful -- it's not. It is hated because it is doing the best it can to fight against evil.
If every person who has participated in the current gun/ammo/components/accessory buying frenzy were a member of the NRA, we wouldn't be having this gun-control debate! Feinstein, et. al. wouldn't dare cross their gun-owning constituents by introducing any new gun control!
If universal background checks, gun registration, bans of certain classes of firearms and magazines, or any other new gun-control legislation is imposed on responsible Americans (Does anyone really believe that gun control reduces criminal behavior?), the blame must be placed squarely on the shoulders of gun owners who selfishly don't support the NRA.
If you are a gun owner, are not currently an NRA member, and don't call 888-678-7894 and ask for the $300 life membership and get your friends and relatives to do likewise, you are a part of the problem! Offer expires 28 Feb 2013. If you don't have $300 to get a good deal on a $1,000 life membership, join the NRA as an annual or 5-year member today and still get a nice discount!
