The NRA can't fight EVERY battle, they have enough trouble just fighting to keep guns in our hands.
Rybo, you are right, the NRA cannot fight every battle! They are THE best choice that we have to keep guns legal!
As for the other battles with our Constitution, and even the battles with Anti's over hunting in general, I see it this way:
Our Second Amendment right, is the foundation of the whole Constitution! It gives us, the freedom of speech, freedom ofreligion, and all the otherfreedoms that we have as Americans!
And again, as to the Anti hunters, the NRA IS working for hunters too!
Even IF the NRA were totally neutral on "hunting," the work that they are doing still protects HUNTING!
How long would ANY type of hunting be legal, if guns were outlawed? NOT LONG!
In closing, "who to support?" There are many good organizations that are fighting for our hunting freedoms, and gun rights! They deserve our support. But if I could only afford one, it would be the NRA! They have the track record, the numbers, and clout, that it takes to fight the Antis!!
Politicians listen to the NRA! Anti's every where fear them!
And, that is at 4 million members! Imagine what they could do if EVERY gun owner, and hunter was an NRA member!
