"Personally, I wont support the NRA anymore because its turned into nothing more than a special interest group who uses our money to try to influence elections."
Unless you have donated money to NRA's Institute for Legislative Action, NONE of "your" money has been used to influence elections.
Per Federal law, ALL money expended on election issues MUST be raised separately and independently of other funds.
Your membership dues do NOT support political activities by NRA.
As for it being a "special interest" group... Holy hell, man, what do you think NRA's purpose is? To support lawful firearms ownership and activities through educational and political processes!
OF COURSE it's a special interest group!
It supports and defends OUR interests!
