Moves to dissolve the NRA (National Rifle Association)

Although absolutely everything that comes up in the run up to elections must be viewed with a jaundiced eye, the probe into misuse of members’ dues as the personal kitty for higher-ups has been in the news for months. They must finally think there is enough evidence to bring a successful suit. I’m not holding my breath, but we can always hope.

I am glad you are not holding your breath. The NRA is arguably bigger than the political system in the USA. If they really put their mind to it they could start a civil war. It’s one of the dirtiest organizations in the world with tentacles everywhere.

It's kind of like the religious leaders in the dark ages that had global influence in politics

But how to combat their omnipotent venality?

But how to combat their omnipotent venality?

Tell the NRA they've miscontrued the meaning of the right to bear arms

I didn’t think anything about the NRA or the corruption of LaPierre &Board could surprise me.

What surprised me was my own ignorance of the fact that they have the status, in effect, of a CHARITY. With their enormous coffers and steady membership, they somehow maintain the designation and tax benefits of a nonprofit organization.

There’s a lot of crossover between the two.
