Yeah, but they don’t share it, dumbass
The NRA compiles a list of gun owners. Or, you know, members. Idiot.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.

Wow, I know of a few people who are NRA members but not firearms owners. I always found it kind of odd, but whatever…

And the NRA has neither mandate nor authority to use that information to restrict the constitutional liberties of Americans.
As opposed to the Department of Justice, which uses every piece of information it can find about you, to punish you.

Why it’s like people think it’s different when the State gets a bunch of data.
Otherwise the NSA thing would be moot. So what if the NSA has all your email data? Google et al. already have it!

As a former annual member of the NRA (like a lot of people, I suspect) I consider myself sort of an auxiliary member, or perhaps a part-time member.
Will I be on the list? If not, I guess I’ll have to sign up next time they offer a neat tote bag (which got me last election year) or some other cool swag.

“Yeah, but they don’t share it, dumbass”
Well, they certainly *do* share it with the organization that *I* most fear: the U.S. government. The government “knows” about *every* piece of mail posted and about most phone calls and emails. And to the degree the NRA *uses* those lists for any of those purposes, the government “knows” the content of the lists.

I took an opportunity to convey, to the author of this drivel, the concept of “marketing”. I don’t think he grasped it. Of course, he probably was less inclined to listen after I called him an asshat.

I had the same initial reaction, and much of the point still holds, but the article specifically states that the list includes non-members.
