May American Rifleman Notice

I’ve been getting the same emails; send money or we’ll fold. Then I get an announcement for the NRA Wine Club.

Now I reply that as soon as Wayne LaPierre donates his salary, I’ll kick in some money as well.
 
LaPierre is the Executive VP and is a hired person and can only be fired by the BOD. He was never subject to election by the voting membership. Until a majority of the Board decides to fire him or he resigns we are stuck with him. If a huge number of members would start marking any solicitation from NRA Return to Sender and not opening it the NRA might start to get the message.
 
After so many really good people were forced to leave, I have devoted my resources to the state level organizations. Texas State Rifle Association being the first.
 
Somebody suggested responding in the response envelope with "Get my share from LaPierre". I liked it & have been responding to all solicitations as such.
 
I have personally known Tim Macy of Gun Owners of America for 15+ years. They are a lean running organization. Virtually all of their money goes to lobbying or raising more money for more lobbying. No one is getting rich on your dollars over there like at the NRA. If they had half the money the NRA does they could get 10x more done for us.
 
The American Rifleman used a two page color ad of him, to say, he'd be sending a letter?
Why not just publish the letter right there, instead of two pages taken up with his mug.
He did send a recent email, asking for money. Maybe that was the letter.
Have met WL; spoken briefly with him a few times at the NRA Annuals.
Never once felt he was a real person. Thought I was talking to one of the old Disney Anamatronics.
I recently sent a donation directly to NRA/ILA with the note that it would be my last, until I see WL gone.
Not worried about him. He and the law firm he's funneled many tens of millions to will be fine.
This is my opinion, as someone with over 50 years of being 100% NRA.
