NRA is going down

Lost most of my guns in a boating accident. It was terrible.

I thought the first rule of stockpiling weapons is not talking about stockpiling weapons.

Like Fight Club.

There's a John Wayne born every minute.

The rest of the world just watches and laughs....

You don't see how crazy America is until you live overseas and watch US news during an election year.

Don't you guy's worry about the the gun owners. We will hold on to our guns . We will keep your families safe, even after the crazy politicians abolished or heors the amazing police officers, just remember ho we call fo help win a emergency comes up. Proud gun owner (only have 80 in my gun safe thinking of getting a few more)

EA, what's your impression of the ACLU?

For years the GOP has been channeling NRA funds to Repub city, state and federal campaigns. Lots of unreturned donations that paid for houses, cars, boats, trips, dinners, girlfriends, boyfriends, cocaine.....

It's been in wide open public view. All those international wires and banks here and abroad just got thrown into the jackpot.

But..... HRC Foundation and other rhetoric is what the right screams.

Protect your Guns and God, in that order!
They love guns, god and pro-life rhetoric in election climates.

That's a political statement from the White House Lawn.

Where Trump said he will accept the Repub Nomination....
The Right doesn't blink.....

You can call it political all you want. Perhaps that was the bias to look into it. Perhaps it was their hubris that was the impetus to look into them. To steal a common conservative phrase, "If they didn't do anything wrong, they have nothing to worry about."

But if they are purposefully violating the law and swaying elections, then yes, they need to be shut down.

I would have absolutely ZERO issue if they did what they did and were not a 501. We have laws in place for 501s to not be political and somehow a vast majority do not have that issue at all.

Now to answer 8inch's question. The ACLU. That is a non-profit that doesn't have an issue. It's amazing that once you are guided by a principle, how easy it is to not run into these issues.

Even in hypocrisy, you're never wrong.

N R A, five million members plus their spouse is ten million votes for Trump. Add in another ten million voters they influence to vote for Trump. That is a good start to reelection. Payback is going to be a bitch to the crazy Democrat States and Cities. Let them tax the shit out of their voters.

INCH---->That takes the fucking hypocrisy cake!

Actually it doesn't as I am not the presumptive candidate for the President of the United States. Unlike Joe Biden who professes but does not follow the Catholic Faith.

Phxunfun - "Hmmmmmm last I read the Catholic Faith (Biden's professed religion) does not support the killing of an unborn child"

But what about all those blowjobs and premarital sex by Catholics and other Christians?

Women have rights to control their body, until it affects YOUR beliefs.

By the way, you're coming into an Adultery Sex Site every fucking day! To preach how smarter and better you are.

That takes the fucking hypocrisy cake!

2MUCH---->I thought you were the guy who dealt only in facts and data...

True. Perhaps the NY Attorney's office would make available all the data on similar organizations, with similar alleged crimes so the public could make an informed decision about the overall case load. Yes, that would include ALL the political organizations under the purview of the NY District Attorney. Absent......what's that favorite political word again.........ahhh yes transparency the general public cannot make an informed decision determining if this is a political prosecution or not.

INCH----->Biden has proclaimed his faith in public fir years.

Hmmmmmm last I read the Catholic Faith (Biden's professed religion) does not support the killing of an unborn child. Like most politician there is proclaiming and there is practicing. In Biden's case they are two different things.

Arbitrary number? I thought you were the guy who dealt only in facts and data...

The investigation may be politically motivated. The NRA is a political organization...

Does the motivation behind the investigation make the crimes any less real?

"But they are not. However in an election year (no surprise) at least one organization is now falling under the microscope. Funny how that happens"

Trump said, paraphrasing.... that Biden is against the Bible and God. Whoa....
Rally the Goobers, pour the gasoline about 12 weeks before the election.

Biden has proclaimed his faith in public fir years. These clowns really wanna believe that Trump attends church, reads their Bible and is a Christian man?

2MUCH---->Not sure what your position is here... are you trying to defend the NRA in this matter?

My position is uniformity and prosecution minus political bias in an election year. I doubt the NRA is the worst abuser. They are however a juicy target for political purposes. I'll pick an arbitrary number. Let's say they are number 3 on the list of potential legal enforcement by the NY District Attorney. Are they taking the save vigor to numbers 1 and 2?

"Defending a Constitutional Right is not cheap."

Aw... Sweet lil Baby Jesus, bless his heart.

Name some other organizations that others pay to "Defend" the other Constitutional Rights?

Lobbyists that launder national and international money.

It's okay to admit it. I admit I had an NRA memb. for a yr when I purchased my first guns 10 yrs ago in Arizona. Too many hat, t-shirt, holster, bags, etc and donation junk mail.

Not sure what your position is here... are you trying to defend the NRA in this matter?

But they are not. However in an election year (no surprise) at least one organization is now falling under the microscope. Funny how that happens.

Lol... I meant "all" as in all of us here in the forum discussing the subject.

Non-profits should all be subject to serious scrutiny... including churches.

Yeah okay.. biggest joke around just one more way to go after the left and your guns..

Nice try snowflakes!

As gun and ammo sales SOAR from all the riots, and defund cops talk.. yeah hows that going for you! One more joke

Yes no problem redoing board, top officials who over see money correctly and yes I to no longer belong ref always asking for money!

Every corporation, city and state I have worked for the abuse with travel , meals hotels was always a concern.. someone needs to overlook and take actions always.

No we ALL don't have a problem with that. Otherwise Democrats and Republicans would stop it. We only care about it just about every four years when the party out of power says they will stop it.

On topic, I'd wager that you can find excess spending in every private charity and public corporation. If we want to line them up A-Z interrogate their financial statements and CLOSE each and every one that is even in the neighborhood of the alleged NRA deficiencies, I'm on board. Yeah....but we aren't. So the problem is limited at best.

I think we all have a problem with that, too.

But we were discussing the NRA.

But most have no problem with Waste Fraud and Abuse with taxpayer dollars. All depends on your pithy perspective huh?
