People around me are VERY unhappy with what is going on at the NRA and have pretty much said they are withholding from donating even to the FNRA until this all gets straightened out. I went as far as telling him I'm taking a year off and will reevaluate at the end of the year.

    Good for you. They constantly hound us for money and don't do shit right. If they don't get rid of Marion Hammer and the likes of her and put good guys like Adam Kraut on the BOD, then it's time to abandon ship and go all in GOA

    Never mind the consequences, they have a career to look out for.
    This is another reason to bring in a security team, they shouldn't answer directly to the Principal. Assaults get reported, weapons get found at the door and a lot of stuff that goes on in schools stops
    So how does an obstruction of justice charge and criminal malfeasance affect their careers? Because if I was a DA or CLEO looking at this particular basket of vipers, I'd be hanging paper on school officials until they thought they were in a ticker tape parade!

    I tell my RP's that we can work almost anything out at the local level, so long as they keep me informed and we do the work. But once we're on CNN as the lead story? It's over. Then we have to play by the script and that script sucks for everyone.

    So I hope the district plans to empanel a Grand Jury and IA is working over everyone with a fingerprint on this debacle, and I hope warrants are being drawn up for all the school records because someone needs to pay for this, and it's damn sure not law abiding gun owners!

    What if this whole crusade's a charade?

    Good post. I e-mail my reps several times a month on different issues. Gotta let them know how we feel.

    Another GOA for the "to do" list.

    https://www.gunowners.org/important-...n-controls.htm
    It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

    Chuck, we miss ya man.
