I agree. Plus they should be removed from office for violating their oath to the Constitution
Wayne raises MILLIONS for the NRA, and has been overwhelmingly re-hired and approved with confidence votes at the Annual Meeting.
The NRA funded the NYSRPA Lawsuit to the tune of $2.2 million Dollars, so this amounts to less than 25% of the cost, that doesn't cover or factor in the Associations costs.

"Merely a third of the expenses" One would think for $1.5m they could get someone to proofread everything they filed fixing the typos and grammatical errors.

Fuck the NRA. Of course approved with confidence votes at annual meetings, it's a God damn FUDD fest. Hope you're enjoying the gun control legislation that the NRA helped pass.
Wayne raises MILLIONS for HIMSELF!
Fuck him. He's almost as bad for gun rights as Feinstein was.

That amounts to about 3 days of what Bill Brewer is billing them per month.

I’ll bet this makes Hochul and AG James happy. Can they give this to Trump as well.
How many changes of leadership and membership have happened since 1871?
Sure the NRA has been influential and I'll accept that there has been Leadership (or lack there of) that did approve of measures we'd consider "anti-gun" We blame Democrats for anti-gun Laws passed, but let's not forget about the Republicans (not just RINO's) that signed off on horrendous gun control laws.
The NRA isn't some massive Law firm waiting with baited breath to pounce on every piece of Legislation that pop up, there are a lot of volunteers, there is paid staff, there are Directors from across the Country, it's a damn big Club and you can be in it to what ever level you can achieve.
I don't know what YOU think the NRA is or isn't, but if you're going to base current conditions purely on past history, then you're being ignorant.

Sounds like some people would have preferred an NRA loss to save taxpayers $$$ ? I'm no longer an NRA fan, but stop your bitchin. One got stuffed up the libtard NY ass sideways. A bitter win, enjoy it any way you can.
One more change of leadership would start fixing the problems.
Yep they get their share of the blame. But they don't come out hat in hand claiming they're using donations to fight and then use it on the Lying, the Bitch and his Wardrobe.
The current conditions are Wayne is still there doing the same grift.
Only way Leadership changes is from MEMBERSHIP putting pressure on the BoD and/or Voting not to re-hire, of course there's attrition.
Ever been to a big money fund raising event? yea, there's a lot of money spent to raise a lot more money, and that's what the whole pro 2A v. anti-Gun Control agenda is about: keeping people ginned up either for or against, and money will solve all the problems IF they can just get enough of it.
Wayne is still there, still raising money, still earning a pretty good living...reminds me of the Car salesman that everyone loves to hate, but sells the shit out of cars...I wonder how many people that bitch and complain about the NRA are actually members and actively involved in it operations?
won't join the largest, and second most powerful lobbying group in the country and shun them because somewhere in the past they did (or you think they did) something that doesn't agree with you, or because you think one man at the top doesn't fit the narrative of how you think they should act... Funny how it's the same thing with NYSRPA, SCOPE, GOA, JFPO, et.al.

And which pieces of Legislation were thwarted because of pressure from the NRA?
How many of those Laws were championed by Republicans? Signed off by Republican Presidents?
When Democrats have control over the Levers of Government, they tend to pass what ever they damn well please, and Gun Control makes them giddy...Republicans talk big shit, but never come through.
Were those Laws compromises and not as bad as they could have been?
Remember that all those Laws were voted on by Both Houses of Congress and signed into Law by the President irrespective of who or what organization blessed or cursed it.
Where do you think we'd if the NRA was dissolved? Even the largest, strongest second place association hasn't anywhere near the clout or membership. Remember that quip about "elections have consequences"? If you've no involvement, then you shouldn't be surprised by the outcome.

Just like dems, the republicans and the NRA need talking points. Solving our 2a problems does not help them keep our attention. Talking about it and blaming dems for not being able to get anything done keeps us voting and donating. Change my mind!! No different than dems not fixing abortion. If they were to fix it they lose that talking point. Both sides need us angry. They may be two different wings of politics but they are attached to the same bird and that bird loves shitting on us.
We think we are part of the game but we are certainly not. They are playing on a different board and we are not privy to the actual game. We just keep toiling away and putting new suites on them and they keep their talking points and our attention. We are all sheep to their games.

I AM THE NRA
This thread is not about Waynes "threads", but 80% letitia james, NY's Aunt Jemima,whose education likely came out of a box of Bisquik, and her scurilous unconstitutional attempt to destroy the NRA just like she is trying against Trump.......... and all MAGA in the state.

The very same one that swore to destroy the NRA, who constantly puts out disinformation and accusations with the goal of defaming those with whom she disagrees?
Yea, I get it that both sides play the middle (Us) and that the players aren't in charge, it's their managers in the shadows that call all the shots.

CCIA .. semi rifle permits and ammo background check now ..
So where is the NRA / NYSRPA now ??
So where is the NRA / NYSRPA now ??
Headed back to Court that's where they are. Historically neither have Press releases or much more than a local interview that amounts to a 30 second clip on the evening news, but that does not mean they're doing nothing.
Are you asking the same question of GOA? How about SCOPE? NY Firearms Association (whom I believe to be fraudsters)?
Tell us, who else is or isn't involved at some level against the State's anti-gun Laws.
Really, what exactly do you think these two associations are? Do you have any direct knowledge of how they operate? How they're funded? How many volunteers there are in positions of authority within the organization? They are not government agencies, they have lobbying power, but no Office in the Legislature.
Let me ask you this: Do you belong to a group or Club outside of the gun world ie Elk's Club, American Legion, etc.? how do they act on matters of concern?
