re:They defend their members when they are caught carrying a gun illegally.

The NRA does not condone breaking the law, can you point to some policy documents regarding this position?


Their members are mostly Republicans. Need I say more. ;-)

re:They pretend that the right to bear arms means that every citizen should have a closet full of weaponry.

No, they don't believe everyone should have/need guns - they do believe you have the right to a closet full of them.


No, I had it right the first time. They rely on their interpretation of the "right to bear arms" to justify a closet full of weaponry.

re:They pretend they are working for the Common Good when in fact, they are working only for their membership which on average happens to be a small but affluent and influential group in this country.

They simply defend the 2nd amendment regardless of whether you choose to exercise your rights or not.


They defend their interpretation of the 2nd amendment so that no one can stop them from filling their closets full of weaponry.

The members believe defending this right is worthwhile - you can thank us later. :-)

I am sure they will appreciate how worthwhile the NRA's endeavor is.
