Goy, these gun fanatics are preventing the NRA from compromising away your inalienable rights! Stop them!
Winning
1934, when they supported the NFA.
:^)
>(((moderate supporters)))
Wayne LaPierre and the board of directors (or whatever they call themselves) are the faces. The true leaders are fudd tier donors
Does NAGR actually do anything? Already a member of GOA and a few state level gun rights organizations but I can always join another NRA still sends me ads but those go right to the shredder
The entire "Fudd" myth is created to help divide and conquer the gun owners. The real power behind the NRA is the top tier industry leaders, CEO's, company owners, the businesses themselves. Look at the board. Hunters aren't trying to ban guns or further gun control, they are against as much as anyone. They aren't in a run to compromise. The real issue is that the industry leaders are a small elite group that can be wined, dined, isolated, talked to, brought into the capital and politics, made "leaders" and "spokesmen" of the industry and the so called made up "shooting community" and therefore all of "our" power is held in these top ranking people with vested interests in keeping the industry alive, even if that means compromising to stave off those evil final bans.
Its an old Roman tactic. They tried to give barbarian tribes kings so that way instead of trying to fight and quell 20 different connected tribes they could just reason, negotiate, buy, control, corrupt, own, create puppet of, play politics with ONE man, one king instead of many tribal leaders and tribes themselves. Centralize the power into a handful of elites, than control the elites.
The NRA is controlled by the handful of industry heads. The idea that gun controllers have is to put the power of the entire range of shooting sports into one organization (the NRA) and all of the influence and power into the handful of elites that run the industry. Then, after they accomplish this, they can do the same thing: threaten, bully, coerce, bribe, corrupt, make puppets, extort, or at least negotiate this handful of elites in this one organization and not with the 80-90 million gun owners themselves. Everything they are telling the industry heads is "don't listen to customers, tell the customer what they want to buy and what is trendy" and telling the industry heads "you control the shooting sports, not the tens of millions of shooters out there" and trying to create their own small cadre that "leads' the shooting sports, try to convince shooters they should follow the industry (rather than the industry follow the customer) and try to convince shooters to listen to their "kings" and shooting sports "spokesmen" and "leaders" instead of shooters telling the NRA and other groups what to do.
What did they do in Afghanistan? Set up a another generic central state because they can control central states? Certainly it failed, but its the only tactic they know how to use.
I don't think it will work, the NRA is in all reality still pro gun, its membership is rabidly pro gun and won't tolerate compromise, the industry heads know at some point gun control is progressive and compromise will doom them, not save them, most of all, like Afghanistan, NOBODY gives a fuck what the "spokesmen" or "leaders' in the shooting sports say, what the NRA's "official" stance or directive is, nobody is influenced by the NRA so even if they do corrupt it it wont' change anything because the tribes and people have all the say, not their precious "kings" and organizations. 80 million gun owners reject gun control, that's why it fails, not because of any lobbying group. That's why gun control can't work; their "corrupt the tiny top" tactic can't possibly work But let them try.
There is no time for insulting other gun owners who stand with you. Keep your eyes on the prize.
The NRA has until 2033 to change its tune. That is when the Boomers start hitting median life expectancy and begin dropping like flies. At this rate however I think they will be replaced. Cody Wilson has won more good will with his political stunts than the NRA has in a long time.
Spoken truly like someone who has never even been to a range. Fudds are very much real.
Guess those 6 million members don't exist.
Yes, many are. Dads who have two rifles or a shotgun of some sort are the propellant behind a lot of this. They are of the vague opinion of 'guns are good' but see things like complete background checks and automatic bans as reasonable and unarguable.
They are controlled opposition at best and actively working against gun rights at worst.
Except they wouldn't be members of the NRA if they were.
This is one ridiculously retarded post
About three years ago, a Strelok found a jewtube video of this faggot in the pic, harassing a man that was open carrying outside a zoo. It was later reviled through his own comments on his video that this faggot was a hunter and had guns of his own, and he felt that nobody should be allowed to carry for self defense. Fudds are not a myth Strelok. They 100% exist, and they use leftist politics to bargain away the rights of others just so they can still have their sport.
