When the NRA keeps their mouth shut about banning things, and stops helping write anti-gun laws, and then keeps begging and pandering for more money, to save those laws they keep helping chip away at, then I'll respect them again. A good start would be getting rid of Wayne LaPierre, Chris Cox, and Ollie North.
I'll support the GOA and FPC, who actually GET things done on a national scale (like suing the government and the BATFE), instead of worrying about fighting piddly little stupid local laws, and then wanting pats on the back, while national laws are being rewritten and redefined unconstitutionally and unilaterally without Congressional approval.
Yes, fixing and beating local anti-gun laws is very important as well, but when you're as big and strong and monetarily-backed as the NRA, you should be worrying about the national issues when they present themselves, instead of keeping your mouth shut and hiding in the dark with your tail tucked, because it was you who mentioned banning such items in the first place, that has now sent us down this slippery slope.
