If I says 'NRA' on the envelope I tend to file it in the garbage can
immediately. LaPierre is too greasy for my tastes and the endless 'the
sky is falling' messaging gets old.

otoh, leaving the playing field means Bloomberg and his minions win.

I've been an NRA lifer for decades. One of the best deals I ever made.
It is not cheap today but sometimes they offer it at lower cost.

I have no problem with LaPierre. There have been squabbles over the

the shooting sports. They are a non-political group that has been
forced into the stance they are taking because one political party wants
to take away our guns.
