Speaking of the NRA
I just joined. Not sure but I think it’s fitting that I did so on my blog’s fifth birthday.

About time. I’ve been a member almost long enough to get voting rights. One more year, I think.

Congrats. I have a life membership I am still paying on and an endowment membership to the TSRA. They are both required to shoot NRA matches and state matches, but I am glad I have them. If you don’t put money where your beliefs are, where ARE you going to put it?

Don’t forget your State Association.

Good on ya, Unc.
I joined about 5 years ago. Shoulda joined 15 years ago, but better late than never…
And I’ll second what Jacob said – join a local group if you haven’t already.

Extended Plan Life member here. Its the best way to do it, doesn’t impact on your monthly budget much.
Also a member of VCDL and the local Izaak Walton League.
I joined Gun Owners of America once – as part of a promotion they were running with VCDL – but do believe its the worst $15 I ever spent in my life. Never recieved anything from them (let alone anything of value) except for junk mail, requests for more money, and dishonest claims about the NRA trying to screw American gun owners over.
Never again. I should have sued for the $15 back on principle.

Grats on joining the team!
I renewed my membership for another 5 years last month.

NRA Director Says Five Rounds is Enough
That JPFO and the NRA have different views on “gun control” is no secret; you can read our position — and view supporting evidence — at http://www.jpfo.org/alert20061211.htm . You can also read an article on the NRA’s recent alignment with gun-prohibitionist Carolyn McCarthy at http://www.jpfo.org/smith-nra.htm .
And now, NRA Director Joaquin Jackson has publically stated that magazine capacities should be limited to five rounds and that “assault weapons [sic] should be limited to military or police.” That’s right — a director of the supposedly pro-gun NRA wants to take YOUR semi-automatic rifles away.
Don’t believe us? Think it’s just a rumor? View the evidence for yourself at http://www.klru.org/texasmonthlytalks/archives/movies/jackson5_44k.mov (we also have it mirrored on the JPFO site at http://www.jpfo.org/joaquin.mov ).
Already the NRA apologists are coming out of the woodwork. Anyone who points out the hypocrisy of Jackson’s position are denounced as “wackos”, “black helicopter paranoids,” and “just trying to make a buck.”
It’s time to “Humiliate and Repudiate” Joaquin Jackson and the NRA. Go to http://www.jpfo.org/handbill-joaquin.jpg to see our latest handbill. Print it out and distribute it to those who still believe the NRA is working in the interest of gun owners. They are not.
If you value the truth more than betrayal and want an aggressive defense of your natural and Second Amendment rights, visit http://www.jpfo.org/member.htm to learn how you can join JPFO. We encourage you to use our “gun control” destroying books and videos ( http://shop.jpfo.org ) and get on board with us today.
