Grass Roots North Carolina for Firearms Education
North Carolina --(AmmoLand.com)- ACT NOW… or you may have to forever hold your peace.
In a deal brokered by Congressman Heath Shuler (D-NC), the National Rifle Association will cease its opposition to the “DISCLOSE Act” in exchange for getting itself – and only itself – exempted from campaign speech restrictions contained in the proposed legislation.
This bill is designed to muzzle GOA, CCRKBA and all other gun rights groups. This deal will potentially bring it to the House floor this week.

IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED
* CONTACT THE NRA: Gun rights supporters everywhere should immediately contact the NRA and deliver loud and clear the message that you regard this “deal” as a sellout which will serve to extend the stranglehold of Democrats and the media over future elections. Contact both the NRA Institute for Legislative Action at: 800-392-8683 or by CLICKING HERE: https://secure.nraila.org/Contact.aspx
and the NRA membership department at: . 800-672-3888.
* CONTACT REP. HEATH SHULER: North Carolinians should immediately contact Congressman Heath Shuler and let him know that despite his posing as a “Blue Dog” conservative Democrat, his “divide-and-conquer” maneuver will be seen in November as the anti-gun action that it is. Shuler can be reached at: Phone: (202) 225-6401, Fax: (202) 226-6422, or by e-mail HERE: https://shulerforms.house.gov/contact/

* CONTACT REP. WALTER JONES: North Carolinians should immediately contact Congressman Walter Jones and remind him that no freedom-loving conservative should be associated with legislation so nakedly aimed at muzzling conservatives and maintaining the liberal stranglehold of the media on future elections.

Question: Why would I demand the NRA to subsidize the GOA in this or any issue? Why should NRA members shoulder the other Gun Rights organizations over and over and over, specially those organizations that only work on attacking the NRA? Why should my monies go to spend one dime on them?
[...] the whining continues. Now the Moochers are demanding that people should contact the NRA and let them know the “deal” of the DISCLOSE bill [...]
Let me get this straight, the Democrats offered a “carve-out” to the NRA which allows the NRA to keep protecting our 2nd Amendment rights, a bill that if made law, will effectively silence the Brady Campaign, the Violence Policy Center, and Bloomberg’s Mayor’s Against Illegal Guns and this is a sell-out?
