NRA’s Institute for Legislative Action (ILA) was created in 1975, then saved and strengthened by NRA members in the 1977 Annual Meeting, in the “Revolt at Cincinnati.” According to the gun-prohibition lobby, the NRA had been an apolitical organization that suddenly grew “radical” in the 1970s. Actually, the developments in the 1970s fortified NRA’s longstanding tradition of active defense of the right to keep and bear arms.

I'll donate to nra when:
1. nra officially apologizes for supporting the clinton gun ban and claiming they could strip it out in committee (they made a deal to get the sunset clause, it was a gun sales tactic)
2. nra officially apologizes for supporting, and continuing to support the lautenberg gun ban
3. nra officially apologizes for not giving daddy bush a demerit when he voted for the 1968 gun ban fascism
4. nra officially apologizes for not supporting "vermont carry" for DECADES until GOA got it expanded to Alaska then Arizona (then nra suddenly went from supporting carry licenses ONLY to supporting constitutional carry)
5. nra officially apologizes for wasting a fortune on wayne lapierre and other execs |

TO REMEMBER |
| We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
