N.R.A. Suspends Second-in-Command, Implicating Him in Coup Attempt

It's a long read. But as you can see the NRA is a sinking ship, the corrupt old guard is trying to do what ever it can to shift blame and clean out any who oppose them and their money making scam..

N.R.A. Suspends Second-in-Command, Implicating Him in Coup Attempt

The bad part is that ILA has traditionally been thought of to be free of all the extravagant spending and conflicts of interest that NRA has been accused of.

I hope this doesn't mean Wayne and the Board are willing to burn the place down rather than give up the gravy train.

WHAT? No ILA is legit when the absolute corruption started.. before it was just a fudd gun group that didnt care about gun rights as long as they could shoot apple seed, trap, and hunt.

Then they formed ILA in the 70s because some wanted the group to do what today's people think the NRA has always done and fight for gun rights, then the ILA was formed and instantly started negotiation rights away to make cash money

I would stand with the NRA portion any day before I stood with NRA-ILA. Atleast the NRA portion did some small good by creating training programs and shit, which now they are behind the times and outdated methods which I'd be ok if they just fell off but fuck ILA

Show me corruption at ILA. I haven't seen it.
They might not do things the way you want them done, but from what I have heard, they are pretty upfront with where their money gets spent.

I am not a big supporter of ILA - mostly because I don't like the tone of a lot of their messaging and there is very little ROI here in NY (the same criticism NRA gets, funny), but I have never heard or read of any financial improprieties there.

Are you kidding they are the ones supporting gun laws and suggesting them

ILA is the lobbying group for the NRA, anything political the NRA gets involved with is ILA

Instead of starting a new thread to add to the who even knows how many threads of new shit happening to the NRA....

And this was shared from Rob Pinkus on his FB page before the apologists come on and try and say it's fake.news because of the source.....


Not sure why the link says that but headline is..

I remember back in HS, when I was 18 I decided wait I'm going to go buy a gun (mom was very anti gun, I had to take a hunter safety class whe I was 13 or 14 just to be able to have a paintball gun)

Left school a bit early, bought some cheap 6.5 carcano brought it home went on with my day. Went to the mall with my friends after bringing it home.

Mom found out was so mad, didnt talk to me for a day, after that my step dad, went out and got a shotgun for hunting (he hunted his whole life growing up) here we are years later, my mom makes sure I dont miss opening days and even a few years ago she came to the range with me and my dad, and shot some of our .22s and even one shot from my Glock 17

And the main source of the NRA corruption.

Not sure how anyone could think that their lobbying group was the not corrupt portion of the group.

It is and it isn't in my opinion. If all of the current NRA members went to GOA then yes it would be good. But I don't think that will happen. GOA will need the membership (and lobbying clout) and dues to really be effective. I can see the fudds just dropping out entirely.

They wouldn't even have to do that. The very few number of pro 2A board members could get together purchase the NRA name when its destroyed and rebuild the brand as what people for some reason think the NRA used to be

kev74 said:

I like GOA for their ability and willingness to rabble-rouse, but can you tell me what they've accomplished?

If you think having ILA crippled going into an election year is a good thing, you are at best severely misguided.

If you think ILA has ever done anything but damage the 2A giu are severely willfully ignorant

Can I "half" like this post?

The first half?

I mean GOA is in a lot of court cases right now... trying to remember what ones the NRA are currently fighting
