He probably doesn't have enough room to hide any more cash.

No doubt

About freaking time. Now who will the board hire? Let's see what they come up with.

Now they will get donations again. Life member here. Whether he did, or did not. The last 4 or 5 years have made a terrible impression and required a new face!

 

[Forum Boss]

Let us hope for a capable new NRA CEO/Executive who supports the shooting sports.

The NRA lost a lot of good leadership when all this broke out

About time. Maybe we can get someone to lead that organization out of the gutter.

The NRA lost a lot of good leadership when all this broke out

And a lot of money too. From today's Wall St Journal:

"Amid the corruption allegations, the NRA’s revenues have plunged, its membership is down and its influence has waned. Revenue in 2022 of $211 million was down 40% from 2018, while membership dues fell by more than half in that period and legal fees skyrocketed."

Now gun owners that said they'd join the NRA if LaPierre resigned can step up and put their money where their mouths are.

Colin Noir?

People like him NEVER resign. There’s too much money in it for him to resign. He was forced out.

 

[Bill Norris]

This is more believable.

Fat chance.

 

[Herzo]

I wonder if there's a building lot next to the Obamas?

And once we find out who they pick, I'll probably start to donate again.

I need to see who they hire and if they trim some of the pork before I do.

I wonder if there's a building lot next to the Obamas?

Or maybe one out in the Pacific.

 

[Kracken McGraw]

I assume Wayne will have time to come on here now and visit while reloading in his basement.

 

[mike mccormick]

Thank God he is gone! WLP was an albatross upon the whole organization.

No doubt LaPierre needed to go. However, the NRA is one of if not the largest lobbying group. Let's hope this brings the NRA back stronger than ever.
