3 NRA board members resign

Only about four dozen to go...

LaPierre and the BOD fiddle while the NRA burns.

Unfortunate. Those 3 are some of the last that should be out.

WLP will undoubtedly ride that ship into the ground. He's never been about 2A rights, why would he start now.
When the losers donations dry up he'll move on to destroy some other organization.

He has something on them. No doubt. Stolen money is my guess. You guys keep donating.

The fudds are unreachable on this me thinks.
Wayne knows this.
Sleepwalking dues sheep.

the fudds don't care .. bet they been life members for yrs .. NRA will save my $3000 to $10000 skeet/trap gun ..

It was my understanding that NRA board members were completely irrelevant, having no power or influence of any kind on the course or operation of the organization. It was my further understanding that existing board members were there for one of two reasons: Naivete or to belly up to the pork barrel.
Board resignations therefore are completely irrelevant.

From my understanding Ted Nuget hasn't gone to a board meeting in YEARS yet is still on. Most organizations have rules where if you have over a certain number of unexcused absences you get kicked off. I'm a member of a Board of Directors for an organization that has such a rule and I know a lot of others that do too. NRA certainly isn't following it's own rules.

Point of order - and confusion -
Life Members (like me) don't pay any dues once the membership is bought.

And that's what confuses me - they've been *giving* life memberships away for the past few years. I bought mine for like $150 a half decade ago, and they sent me about $25 with of junk for it (hat, jacket, knife) . After what they spend in admin and mailings, that means they got about $100 total out of me, total, for the next 40 years if I live that long.

What are yearly membership dues? Why the fire sale on life memberships? And endowment memberships, for that matter?

Lot of lost money. Makes me go, "Hmmmm."

Because many of those life members donate far more than whatever the annual dues would be every time Debbie from Oklahoma calls asking for money.

So again, why the sale?

Life and Endowment are expensive - if I'm going to donate, why keep offering it at trailer-trash pricing?
