Apparently you are as clueless as AJ! The NRA does not control Congress or the POTUS they have influence by the numbers of members that is what the gives them a voice. They don't have a magic wand to make our gun world perfect (they do try). As far as voting why would you not vote? And which people do you think run the NRA names would be good? Who specifically are you referring to is a too fucking dumb? I would like to know (I happen to be up close and personal with one) I also know a lot of them none I would use that classification. The NRA helped me when I was a kid about 50years ago and they have done more than any other organization ever for education, legislation , training, lawsuits etc. Not perfect but find one that is as capable and support it. If you are member you do know you can turn in your membership? Or at minimum go to the annual meeting get to know some of them. Besides they have a lot of gun stuff going on vendors ect. And like minded people you can still be pissed and have fun.
