He and the other criminal defendants will have their day in court. One of the board members who is an attorney was on Gun Talk radio and mentioned without specifics that the amount of evidence leveled against them during the grand jury was overwhelming.

Yeah, so you keep saying. Since you’ve been watching it for years let me see exactly what it is you’ve been watching. Links presumably. Unless you’re privy to stuff the rest of us aren’t.

Ok. Have any of us/you seen this overwhelming evidence ?
I’m more than willing to admit WLP is a crook. As soon as I see some evidence. I sure as hell ain’t jumping on the bandwagon along with Hillary, Hogg and the NY AG based solely on what someone on the internet says.

NRA Corruption Allegations and Gun Policy
With an annual spending budget of roughly $250 million, the National Rifle Association (NRA) is a highly influential force in American politics. Established in 1871, the NRA has developed into one of the most influential advocacy organizations in the U.S. and boasts over five million members...
campbelllawobserver.com
and...
A gun owner and NRA instructor wrote an open letter saying the NRA is 'losing us' and that the CEO needs to 'clean up your act'
The NRA has been plagued in recent months by infighting and controversy over the organization's business dealings and excessive spending.

I'll stick with Allen West as a credible board member...
I've made my point as a life NRA member. Change is good for the NRA, and hope, like the 1977 Revolt, the NRA can get rebuilt considering the challenges that exist.

Absolutely! Fruit of the poison tree.
They've been squandering money for decades. Even Uncle Ted seen it and removed himself, at least that is the way he (Ted) stated it.

Come on now. I normally respect your posts but this forum went through all of this right after the disaster in Indianapolis. I was one of the people there while Ollie North was being threatened to keep quiet about what he had found and when he refused, he was fired one day before the annual meeting and threatened until he left town.
I and others shared, via private email, pages and pages of documentation with people we knew and trusted as pro gun folks with receipts for custom made suits, travel and housing for an "intern", as well as outrageous travel expenses including trips to Italy using private jets and limos.
I have been a long time Life Member of the NRA and was part of the faction that turned the NRA around in Cincinnati years ago. I made up my mind of the the actual information Ollie surfaced and WLP's reactions to all of it. I have been withholding funds I might have otherwise given along with other former major contributors ever since. If we are satisfied when this all shakes out we have over $20,000,000 we will be donating this year from money we have escrowed.

Well, I would like to read the article, but it says enter your email to continue, Fox has really went downhill, there app totally sucks, can’t read a thing on it due to the pop up adds, the web site now wants your email to read certain articles. I deleted the app, gave up on there web site, and don’t watch there news on tv, gets old playing the same commercial twice in a row…..Maybe NRA can restore its reputation now. I’m going to have to look into joining it again. Can’t imagine this is anything but good news!
Wayne LaPierre announces resignation as NRA chief

There are times when the NRA offers life membership at a much reduced rate and you can even pay for it at $25.00 a month if you wish.

As you wish. I've bought absolutely nothing. My two cents are paid, alongside yours, and there's an end to it.

I have the NRA Life of Duty membership for LEO's. The gift was a camouflage range bag. Picture looks good but upon receiving it, total cheap garbage. That's not the reason I subscribe obviously but I would think and hope they should offer something different like a shirt or hat or at least something that's quality. Just my two cents...

What’s REALLY Going On Inside NRA Operations
LaPierre’s response to the ultimatum was swift and decisive: he refused to step down, disclosed the threats that were made, and accelerated legal efforts.

Or better still just quit sending junk and use that $ where it is supposed to be used. If I want and NRA hat or pocketknife, etc. I'll buy one, but not overpriced or China made junk.

The cheap, Chinese junk they send along with the collection of advertising they call a magazine are among the reasons I declined to renew. I've not been a member since the 90s.
I am a donating member of several other gun rights organizations.
