"For any American who is worried about this country, who feels our core values are slipping away, who believes something has to be done to change the direction of our nation before all is lost -- the NRA is your refuge It is your place to stand and fight with Americans just like you, for all that is good and right." Wayne La Pierre, NRA CEO.
For some of us, Wayne, the NRA is really not the symbol of all that is good and right in America.

"To stop a bad guy with a gun, it takes a good guy with a gun," says NRA's Wayne LaPierre, one week after the Newtown, CT school murders.
I dunno, Wayne, didn't really work like that in Uvalde, TX, where pretty much the entire police force just stood outside holding their guns for a LONG TIME, and saved no one.
"The problem isn't guns, it's EVIL" roared Senator Ted Cruz as he comforted the NRA (and his gun-owning donors) at their annual meeting not long after the 2022 Uvalde school shooting in which 19 children and 2 teachers were shot dead. Well, yeah, sure, I guess so.
