Anybody catch this show tonight?
I'm not a big fan of the modern NRA, before they became a Repug lobbyist group instead of primarily hunting and gun safety oriented
Found it interesting nonetheless.

2My membership to NRA expires this month. They will see no more of my money - ever.

3i was a member once. exactly once, 1998 or 99, i forget. cluttered up my mailbox with begs for money, never did anything for me.

Re: NRA Under Fire - PBS Frontline
4Lots of NRA history in there. We don't see the recent shake ups.
One problem, early on, is Oswald's rifle was said to be .38 caliber. 6.5mm is closer to a quarter inch. Small critique, I know.
I can see why LaPierre gets along so well with this president. They're both grifters.

6Found it funny that LaPierre isn't even that knowledgeable on firearms or shooting sports

9Thanks for sharing. Was pretty informative, in a historical sense anyway. Definitely shed some light on the intricacies of the politics and characters involved in such.
