opinion No worries the ARA IS READY TO GO

opinion Editorial board is made up of idiots

opinion Why not investigate the rampant fraud and misuse of funds that truest have an impact on millions of lives by the notorious corrupt labor unions? ...oh right, b/c they vote democrat CORRUPTION

opinion New York really likes attacking non profits and stealing their money.... So, business is fleeing New York, people are fleeing, and soon people will move their non-profits out of new york.

opinion Let’s hope we replace it with a worthy non-profit. Maybe one that betters our world, not one that fills it with guns and greed and hate.

opinion As the saying goes, If a frog had a rubber ass, it would bounce when it jumped. 😲

opinion Be a responsible gun owner however; leave the NRA alone. It's bad enough to lose the Boy Scouts to loud mouth girls that want their way. Must have been the feminists and/or the SJW's. ♀️

opinion I'm waiting for Flavor Flav to pop out with a clock.

opinion And maybe with less apathy for humanity but I'm not holding my breath.

opinion This lawsuit is what happens when you take legal advice from Oregon's AG. It will be a total fail and will be quietly dismissed after the election.

opinion I prefer my gun clubs to not be laundering the rubles of foreign oligarchs, so good riddance to the NRA. We need a 2nd amendment org that cares exclusively about gun rights, and not becoming wannabee crypto-fascist Republican stooges who fall silent at the Presidents will.

opinion Good luck with that....this cancel culture is about to get kicked in the head

opinion This is an abuse of process. The NY AG is using legal processes to attempt actions beyond the authority of the law.

opinion The NRA could be considered an organized militia. Trying to dissolve the NRA by the NY DA could then be infringing. Treasonous territory for the DA. Trying to dissolve the NRA because of lavish lifestyle is equivalent to dissolving unions because of union heads embezzling dues.

opinion They plan to dissolve the NRA but then if the system allows them to return under a new name

opinion She is an enemy collaborator

opinion they will just be moving...

opinion Rule of Law

opinion You know who will try to start one of those? Donald Trump Jr. it will be a career opportunity for him to grift from for the rest of his life.
