So a win for the NRA.

 

[Zerex]

I am not sure of the legal basis for the conviction. If it is a NYS rule, than it is likely corrupt.

CEO's get all sorts of lavish compensation perks....
For example.. Chairman Emeritus of the Corporate Board, of a big Drug Corp gets $100 million salary and free use of Corporate jet. Same with retired CEO.........those drugs are sold NYS, but they do not sell guns, or advocate guns.

It is the same for most big corporations....insane salaries, that would make you puke. 5 mill a year is paupers salary.

They set you against the NRA,........................because they brain washed you, that the NRA is bad, like they made you know the AR-15 is the worlds most dangerous weapon against "their Republic."

I will bet that a survey here would show 90% against the NRA, but no reason would be given..."don;t really know", but they be bad..........wearz der suits.

It is because dues are required to join ....only poorer people own guns..so there it is.....CULTURAL.

2'd Amd Foundation, and GOA take donations, like NYSR&P......... but most here say "FUCKEM."

I know who you are...been around you for 50 years plus........wake up.

 

[2WheelGnnr]

i understand what Zerex is saying but I think the issue here is The NRA is a NON PROFIT........one this for exxon or these other huge corporation but a NON-PROFIT...CEO jetsetting around is a little much.....just my 5 cents!!!!

Their complete abandonment of their top contribution states because "lost cause", the fair weather blame shifting between them and NYSRPA, bad mouthing of their own members when they have the audacity to show their displeasure, numerous supports for anti gun legislation to keep the coffers full, the absurd squandering of funds to absolute nonsense like this and their "incentives", bungling of major court cases they were responsible for, Tom King, failure to even spread the most basic of legal literacy to their bases (not a single fudd should be surprised we have an ammo BGC now, but boy are they. )

But yeah, no, you got it, it's just muh brainwashing.

I'd be very happy to have an NRA that isn't fleecing its members, and is effective at lobbying, election campaigning, safety training and competition sanctioning.

The best way I've heard it put was that Leticia James went on a witch hunt and found witches. NRA leadership did lots of illegal stuff and admitted to a lot of their misdeeds during the trial.

I recieved my last edition of American Rifleman with Wayne's face on page three. Good riddance.
I've been in for over 35 years. The magazine has influenced many gun purchases and has taught me much. Even in its worst days its been a great value. Where else can you buy such hatred from people like the Clinton's, Obama's, and Schumer and a million others and as a bonus get your choice of three gun magazines.

Glad someone else gets it...
The very people that vowed to destroy the NRA and it's Executives are the ones controlling the narrative and legal proceedings...
Many have difficulty with the concept of paying someone a lot of money for making/raising a lot of money...
Quite possibly and likely there were "abuses" but those are subjective and under the auspices and control of the Board of Directors, not the commy-cunt finding the crimes once shown the man.
MOST if the NRA is voluntary and MOST of the Money supporting the Association comes from Corporate donors, NOT the general membership that sends in $25. dues every year to cover the Postage for their magazine.
I take a lot of shit from people here and any other places I try to engage an intellectually honest conversation, but it always comes back to the man in the expensive suits is bad.

Gun and accessory advertisements fund the Magazines and the Association: When they run an article, sales go wild, same with "vintage" guns: Before the NRA did this big story on the Remington Nylon 66 (and it's variants) they were <$100. all day, then suddenly they were the Beenie babies of the gun world and went apeshit in prices....THAT'S the power of Media and a subscription base of ~5 million.

Where is the NRA now from the NYSRPA Vs Bruen case

while the Witch is mashing her high heels on it

and signing more shit that against the decision .. CCIA .. Semi Auto Rifle permits

???

So the NRA got Lucky ... Once ..

hay NRA .. when are you going to fund the cases to remove the 1934 act and the 1968 act

that you all compromised on back then ..

you know the Bruen case Now ..

there was nothing back in 1791 on gun laws ..

[Zerex]

Who observes pot store parking lots?
Competitors? The store itself has to have surveillance gear, same as gunshops, and it is accessible to LE.

A simple license plate search might turn up gun owners.

SD quit. Snoop might have wanted to buy a gun. Not even CBD oil for me. Pot leveled too many of my late friends. but I do want you to exercise your freedoms, it is your right to toke up...every day and night...it is harmless.

Oh, so the NRA is still around?

Where are you with the Laws being passed by a democrat controlled Assembly, Senate, and Governor? Stopped by any Offices in the Senate or Assembly Office Buildings? Get a letter back from your Representative telling you how they support the Second Amendment but...
Do you really think the NY Legislature asks NYSRPA or the NRA about Legislation they plan on introducing?
Does that $25. bucks a year buy insurance and legal action for your Rights? Jammed up? Who are you going to call? First thing they ask is IF you are a member.
Do you realize that most of the NRA and certainly NYRPA are volunteers? That it's not made up of a Law Firm of Lawyers waiting for any threat of Legislation to be passed or afterwards? It's people committed to actually interacting, advising, and playing politics with those in Office with an agenda.
ALL the People involved with the Passage of the NFA of 1934 and GCA of 1968 are dead and no longer making decisions for the NRA or the United States: let it go, or work to get it repealed...good luck because no one, even a Republican Controlled Congress and White House have done it, nor has the NRA, GOA, Second Amendment Foundation, or dozens of other Pro-2A Associations that beg money with aggrandizing promises.

Tell us you're involved, if not with NYSRPA or NRA at least some legitimate organization that doesn't make hollow promises while cashing your check.

All you ever seem to do is bitch and post MS-13 don't need no permit bullshit.
Really I don't care what organization you belong to, but if it's none or they don't actually do anything (NY Firearms Association) then you've got nothing to stand on....Those that cry the most, do the least..

 

[Acer-m14]

don't we all bitch about things .

So i guess you don't like the MS13 memes i come up with showing how much gun laws are BS

but the NRA helped to make them ..

PS .. MS13 do not get permits .. that's a FACT Meme

iggy me if you want to .. i do not care one bit ..

you do you and I do me ..

 

[Darth]

Who said anything about people in expensive suits being bad?

Did I not just post a long list of legitimate complaints that said nothing of suits?

Oh crap, is this gonna be another flat earth thread? Y'all got me you scallywags!

I read the American Rifleman from 1967 when the GCA was being proposed and the NRA opposed it, however (IIRC and remember, the NRA was about Marksmanship training and gun safety, NOT Politics) they did intervein to lessen the proposed Legislation that was destine to be passed by Democrats. 56 years later all it's done is get stronger and Gun owners have not gotten it repealed, but it does get closer with every pro-2A ruling from SCOTUS.
MS-13 pictures bother me? fuck no, but after a while your childish postings become tedious. That "ignore" button works both ways, and it's best used on the intellectually dishonest who cannot accept outside their narrow views...or are just plane assholes I've no use for.

 

[Bustedknees]

Just received my January edition of American Rifleman. The front cover says they are going digital. Im pissed, it's really a great gun magazine. I've been getting this subscription for something like 30 years. I have zero interest in reading a magazine online. I will rethink about being a member when my dues come up.

It cost an enormous amount of Money to Publish, Print, and Mail Magazines...NYSPRA went digital to save money, however there are a few members that needed a printed copy, so the Association prints and collates a copy each month for those that requested a Printed copy every month...no idea if the NRA can/will do such. Despite being a member, I do not get the Magazines as it's just more shit to agitate me and throw out later...My Gunsmith calls Gun Magazines "Comic Books" and he's right.

I think its closer to gun porn than a comic book. Lots of great info for the non gunsmiths. And it only takes seeing a picture to make me want to buy my next gun.

Modern living can be pretty cool with computers and such, but there is nothing like sitting down in a comfortable chair at your own leisure, pick up good magazine from the end table and relax. I no longer belong to the NRA but if I did, loss of the hard copy magazine would be the straw.
