https://www.washingtonpost.com/inve...7d47ac-6d63-11ea-96a0-df4c5d9284af_story.htmlThe National Rifle Association is cutting salaries 20 percent and bracing for layoffs, as the coronavirus pandemic forces the nonprofit to cancel its annual meeting set for April and a wide range of upcoming fundraisers and programs, according to a memo to staffers from the nonprofit’s leadership Monday.
More than 800 people worked at the NRA in 2018, according to its latest tax filing ...
The memo said that due to public health guidance and state or local restrictions, all Friends of NRA banquets across the country were canceled as were gun shows, recruitment stations and other income-generating activities.
... The NRA’s political arm spent a record-setting $30 million in 2016 to help elect President Trump.The organization ended 2018 with a $2.7 million shortfall in 2018, compared with a $17.8 million shortfall the previous year and a hole of $45.8 million in 2016, according to NRA tax filings.

that $30 million to help tRump. that was russian money
so, there is a bright side to the coronavirus
i'll admit, news of the NRA's bankruptcy would have produced even more enjoyment, but at least there is something in knowing that crappy organization is facing hard times

Celebrating almost a thousand people losing money or jobs because an organization is being economically devastated by the virus.
You are a real peach, dude.
How much does Wayne get from this organization?
$2.2 million in 2018
but his cut for this year was unspecified. the intimation was he would be cut in excess of 20%

Didn't they buy him a mansion and supply him with an enormous travel budget? Giving to the NRA is like giving to one of these mega churches.

It proves what I have been saying since I started on this board. The anti gun movement is not about public safety or crime control-it is about punishing and harassing people who don't support their left wing agenda.
How does it 'prove' that ? ...specifics,please...
Because, the NRA could cease to exist today and our right to keep and bear arms would still exist. The NRA going away won't change that and there are other orgs that will step up and take it's place.
those who hate the NRA don't do so out of some mistaken belief that the NRA somehow helps criminals but rather because the NRA helps politicians who oppose the agendas of NRA haters.
the NRA represents the gun manufacturers
their motivation is to make the gun market as large as possible to enrich the gun manufacturers
unfortunately, that allows guns to be placed in the hands of those who kill the innocent
consequently, there is another view needed to counter that of the gun manufacturers, to try to prevent guns from being available to those who are inclined to kill and maim
that avoiding killing and maiming is the agenda of those who oppose the direction of the NRA
that is a claim that invariably comes from the anti gun left. gun makers can only sell their wares to people who have federal licenses or those who have passed a background check
On the one hand, its kind of nice to see the 'gun owner' Nevilles of the world fully expose themselves. On the other hand it makes it easy to see why the anti-gun leftists have been able to make gains.that is a claim that invariably comes from the anti gun left. gun makers can only sell their wares to people who have federal licenses or those who have passed a background check
:lamoah, somebody sleeps better at night pretending that the only individuals who have access to firearms are wholesome people who would not abuse their access to those weapons
that's why our nation has a gun problem unlike any place this side of somalia
:lamo
Tragically...anti-gun leftists are supported by 'gun owners' like you in their initiatives to target the law abiding citizen gun owner while avoiding the violent criminals that you pretend to give a **** about.
You dont give a **** about the violent crime rate or the victims of violent crimes. You have already full one exposed yourself as being solely interested in targeting legal gun owners and promoting bans for all those 'evil' guns you hate so much.
:lamoclearly, your side could give a **** about gun carnage, which leaves my side to try to do something about it
:lamo
To the contrary. Your side is only invested in attacking law abiding citizen gun owners and evil scary guns. Your side doesnt give the first **** about the 9000+ dead bodies killed by violent criminals. Hell...your side rushes to excuse them...to justify them...or worse...just straight up ignores them. Your side doesnt give the first **** about ANYONE or anything...but using the occasional instance to further your political agenda. Your side LOVES dragging the dead bodies of children around to use them as props for your anti-gun measures. You **** on gun owners and you **** on the Constitution.
The BEST part about it is that you have at least finally shown yourself for what you are. You will support the Feinstein gun bans and shout to the rooftops that there ARE no attempts to 'ban guns'...because they will still 'let' you have single shot and double barrel shotguns and revolvers.
of our two sides, mine is the only one attempting to prevent the crazies from having access to firearms, in the hope that will reduce the nation's gun carnage
