What a mess. I wondered who was going to "blink" first... Ollie thought he could just muscle Wayne out and that went nowhere.

I have a feeling that after the dust settles, the Colonel will be back in the NRA after a few others are forced out.
This all depends on what North has dug up.

Regardless of what people have said about him, Colonel North is one hard core Patriot that I would trust with my life in a hot second.

....and now for the haters that will try to prove (and fail) that North is a murdering traitor that hates his country

an IT company I worked for in 05 shared office space in a building down the hall from Freedom Alliance,
I saw Col. North many a morning, while I was standing out front sipping my morning coffee enjoying a Smoke ...

He actually stopped to talk to me when he was returning from his Vietnam trip

I have a very high opinion of North generally...but he's been known to play the political power struggle angle pretty hard too. I just wish they'd fix what's broken and get back to the business at hand.

I agree, I have been wishing for massive board changes for 25 years. The NRA needs to be The Lion that the liberals say they are.

You don't understand the NRA's political arm do you?

They don't need to be a "lion"...they just need to own enough Representatives and/or Senators to make sure that no legislation ever passes.

It really is that simple.

You would think the Constitution should be sufficient to stop bad legislation on infringement of arms ownership, but clearly it is not.

You don't understand how elections work do you? If more than half of the people that vote in the elections for these representatives and/or senators wanted that legislation bad enough they would vote them out.

My Life Membership was well under 100 dollars when my Gfather gave it to me. Money well spent.
My Lifetime Indiana carry permit was 125.00 dollars. Again money well spent.

Or maybe YOU don’t understand why you shouldn’t. That’s fine too.

Sadly, it is far more full than my current.

Why do you support fascists & terrorists?
Why do you hate America?
When are you gonna finally admit to being an avowed Marxist?

Okay, that was funny. Well done.

And somehow, they manage to do it on a shoestring budget. I'd like to know their secret to managing money as pertains to paying off Congress-critters.
