Wdym compromised
As in, their real purpose was to make a database of gun owners. The donation and politics side was just extra gravy to sell it to gullible boomers.
Weren't they primarily funded by gun co.?
I mean I'm sure they took contributions too
I don't know the specifics for funding, but their activism always seemed half-assed to me
I mean I know they are a lobbying group
I can't think of anything that they have done to stop or reverse the erosion of gun rights
Are you kidding
Anything significant that is
They have been a major platform for pro gun rights
Oh yeah? What does that accomplish?
Lobbying support Nationwide against any sort of gun control
Have they won any court cases that stopped or reversed the gungrabber efforts?
Because talk and support means nothing. It's decided in the courts
Yes. When the mass shootings happened under obama, they were campaigning heavily against any sort of gun control
And is there more or less gun control since then?
When the FBI wanted access to information related to studies and statistics, the NRA fought hard to forbid it, and won.
the bankruptcy move is a reorganisation move as they are moving from New York to Texas as the State of New York has been attempting to get them shut down, so in that instance it's not really weird
Less
Just equal. Any propose changes in related to guns is heavily influenced or attacked by the NRA
which is why so many dems hate it
Yeah, but they are also cray in a sense. Even laws that don't take away the right to bear arms, but to add licensing is hyperboled to the extent of "they're taking away our freedom!"
I have to disagree with that. Look at what happened to the yuppies in Missouri when they tried to scare off BLM from their mansion back in the summer

They were arrested and had their guns confiscated

If the NRA didn't exist gun rights would have been eroded a lot more by this point, that's a simple fact, ignoring any such confirmation bias to the contrary
@Aphelion what do you mean
if the NRA didnt exist, we would be able to register new production machineguns.
daily reminder that when FOPA was written and the Hughes Amendment (which barred registration of new machineguns) was added, the NRA told Reagan to sign it anyways and that they'd "lobby back for it later" but never did
They did something illegal
the NRA is why MP5s are $40k.
So.. that's not the same.
wish i had friends to play geoguessr with
Were they supposed to disassemble the guns first and brandish them piece by piece and then reassemble them with the mob's permission?
