In reply to the discussion: NRA's video message to 'elites': 'We're coming for you' [View all]Oak2004
(2,152 posts)44. Actually I have an excellent reason to be an NRA member
I'm a life member who joined years ago, before the NRA became a wholly owned subsidiary of the lunatic right wing... you know, when it actually was about training and safety and the like.
I have thought long and hard about resigning (of course). But then I would no longer receive all the crap I get from them in the mail which would save them a lot of money. By remaining a member for the rest of my days, without paying them another cent, I cost them money that would otherwise be available to make terroristic threat videos and the like.
So, "I'm the NRA". Keep sending me magazines and other mailbox spam, you suckers.
I submit that this is an excellent excuse for continued NRA membership.
