RE: NRA does do for hunters....
Quik,
You're right about assertions, that is all you did, was make them. Does the NRA use scare tactics to get money - sure they do. Do they blow things our of proportion - sure they do. Do they help us keep our 2nd right - sure they do.
There are a lot of folks who live in this country that would love to see our rights go away. And by the way, the 2nd amendment wasn't talking about hunting, that was a given. Our forefathers would have fell over laughing if they heard that was going to be taken away. It is about the right to bare arms, so that the American people can fight its own Government if it becomes too powerful and stops representing the people of this fine country.
I don't support the NRL, at least not financially, but I guess I should. Their stuff gets thrown away with the rest of the sob story mail.
Just my opinion, but I'd say that hunting and recreational shooting go pretty much hand in hand, I mean that is why I shoot, you know recreationally, to practice for hunting.
