To me it’s irrelevant if there is an “NRA” “fighting for my gun rights”,neither do I care what some group of federal judges declares regarding my guns.
I don’t care what words some trendy politician utters about guns.
I don’t care what the media says about them.
I don’t care if we become just another nation within the global UN framework having to abide by its global rules and laws.
I don’t care if the death penalty is eventually invoked for gun ownership-I’m never giving mine up,get used to it.

This debate about which is better is a waste of time, and only helps our enemy’s.

The truth is we have enough potential members to go around and enough funds to support both. We need both types of organizations working to protect our 2nd amendment rights and you can see that the NRA and the GOA pick and choose which battles they fight or let the other one fight.

And if you disagree with the NRA’s position on something the GOA can be there to steer the path.

You should support and belong to both groups as they each do great things to protect our right to keep and bare arms.

Statements like the “NRA = Gun Control” do more damage to each organization by confusing those who have yet to throw in their support by making them second guess which group is better when the reality is we need them to belong to both.

The Bottom Line is stop the internal bickering. If you personally like one group more than the other then put all your effort into that organization, but do not tear down the other as each is a powerful force for good.

We have much worse enemy’s like the HSU, PETA, United Nations and the current Administration.

If you want to complain, write about what they are doing wrong.

The last word of caution is anyone can comment on here so who is to say that our enemy’s are not the ones trying to divide us.

Folks…the NRA was established as a gun control lobby so that the “black folks” would be limited as to their ability to own firearms. They were for the ‘68 Fed bill. They are controlled oppositoin. Understand what I’m saying…the NRA is a gun control group! In their own words they believe in “reasonable gun control” . Well, I believe that an armed society is a polite society, I am a life time NRA member and wish I could revoke my membership. Just try it. They won’t let you because they want to keep their “numbers” ; what a crock! Seriously, they will stop sending you literature but you remain a life member in “body count” Learn just a few of their lies at the following link. http://www.keepandbeararms.com/nra

Please. gunowners.org Larry Pratt’s organization is the only no compromise gun lobby. Unless you believe that the 2nd Amendment is about shooting sports and hunting then you have no choice but to expose the true NRA and support GOA.

There are thousands of good NRA people with good intentions they are simply uninformed. That is what is meant by controlled opposition. They are so invested emotionally like a favorite sports team that they simply won’t open their eyes to the truth. We’ve been duped! Admit it. NRA = gun control …three steps foward and one step back for the “Brady bunch” is not forward progression when we’re the one step back!

That does not equal any sort of victory for our God given right. that’ s right…God given, not Gumbint given. There is no right for legislation to take away because legislation did not give us the right to defend ourselves. NOT HUNT…DEFEND OURSELVES. Get it?

Don’t wait for the NRA to grow a pair, they already have….a pair of breasts.

BTW, I’m a woman so I can say that. I can also say that the NRA are a bunch of pantywaist sellouts that couldn’t hold a fist size grouping to the GOAs no compromise 2nd amendment protection. Now that’ s real feminine protection. Keep yer powder dry.

The NRA compromised on registration, out-right bans and the outlawing of full auto.

The NRA was founded to co-opt and disarm our militia.

Try Gun Owners of America. They are the real patriots.

GUN OWNERS OF AMERICA DOES NOT COMPROMISE

Gun Owners of America! Wake up you fools!

NRA children, grow up and fight for your rights. Support Gun Owners of America.

You can’t legally buy a gun anymore without tons of paperwork and background checks. Every time you buy weapons or ammunition with a credit card, go to the range, go to a gun show, visit a website, or answer/read/contribute to a blog/newsgroup you are being traced by one agency or another. Big brother is on the ball and if you think it’s different, you’re only fooling yourself.

You can’t hide anymore so you might as well join the “paranoid” majority and enjoy the freedom while it lasts.

REMEMBER YOUR OATH OF ENLISTMENT!

Remember what you swore to protect, and from whom. You swore to protect the Constitution, not the politburo. So long as those elected work within the boundaries of our founding document, it’s all good. POTUS or Congress violate it, they must be removed. SCOTUS tries to apply foreign law in consideration of a case before them? Wrong answer.

Our government has sold us out and they don’t ask for our money they just take it and have it spent years worth they haven’t even collected yet… don’t kid yourself about your name on a list… they already have it and it had nothing to to with the NRA… and the list is so long that if they came to your house it would be pure coincidence or luck of the draw… numbers is all the two egotistical, arrogant elitist fraternities (Dems/Repubicans) who govern (and I use that term very loosely) understand. So if we don’t belong to every organization we can afford to that stands for our rights and hang together surely at some point we will hang alone. Never in my wildest dreams did I think we would be so divided in this country as we are today. The list of distinguished and serious problems is long but the loss of the middle class… the back bone of America is on the brink of being gone and that my friends will spell the end. Everyone in the layer of governance wants to blame someone… is looking for who to blame… none of them knows enough about hard work and sitting down and finding the root cause of a situation and working on a solution… it is all about getting re-elected… because it means money in the pocket for them and care for life…

The bottom line is that the Democrats, Republicans, high end corporate America, the media and the entertainment world (including the sports world) is taking America down the river Stix…..and the unwashed masses think they are on cruise….if they would look at the side of the boat it says “Titanic”…greed is king…the truth is gone…and we have seen the best this country has to offer….and the good that we have enjoyed was provided by the effort, blood and lives of those who served to keep her upright and free…..but even our troopers haven’t been able to keep us safe from our own “politicians”….I would hope that our Heavenly Father will have mercy on us let us get back on track but we have thrown Him out of every part of lives so it would not be strange that he could leave us alone to our own demise.

Don’t say GOA or JPFO. While they are great on their positions, they aren’t as effective and don’t have the numbers.”

Gotta say, that’s just stupid. So, if a group has blatantly SOLD OUT it’s members and there are other FAR MORE DEDICATED AND TRUSTWORTHY options, yet smaller, your solution is to simply forget about it and continue supporting the backstabbers? How about ALL the People who are Fed Up, Sick and Tired, Pissed Off and DONE with the NRA who are members, CANCEL YOUR MEMBERSHIP and join GOA or JPFO? Not only are you now supporting groups who UNDERSTAND that “Sporting Purpose” has NOTHING to do with the 2nd but you’re sending a signal that WE AS A CULTURE understand that. By supporting the NRA because they’re “Well, they’re the biggest”, you’re supporting what they believe and are willing to fight for.

If you can straighten out the NRA – fine. Do it. The easiest way to do that, however, is through the pocketbook. QUIT THEM like they quit us. Maybe then they’ll get the idea and start using they’re enormous infrastructure for the right reason.

Oh, and if anyone with the NRA happens to read this, STOP SENDING ME MAIL. Christ, I haven’t been a member for years and I’m still getting my Bi-Monthly letters asking for money. Have they considered for just a second that if they QUIT sending out all the damn mail they wouldn’t HAVE to constantly ask for money? Especially when the mail they are sending is the mail asking for money. It’s like wiping before you poop, just don’t make no sense.

Give yourself a big OOOHRAH Recent gun sales shatter all-time records. Firearms companies have hundreds of thousands of backorders. Ammunition sales skyrocket. Many dealers have nothing left to sell. Amazing. Forget "Buy A Gun Day". Never…

Thanks for everyone’s comments.
