I joined a few years back to see what the NRA was up to. It was my way of infiltrating the organization as a Democrat and supporter of gun controls.
With my $25 membership, I got a camo shoulder bag made in China, a flashlight bright enough that it seems like it could burn a hole in a wall, and endless mailings of solicitations for money and offers to win a whole armory for which I would have absolutely no use.
But in a presidential election year, don't just take the word of someone who says, "These people really hate Hillary Clinton." You can join and find out for yourself or browse through the publications at nra.org. |

What I discovered by reading your article is that you did not learn a single thing.
A closed mind can only be opened from within. |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
