The National Rifle Association would like me to renew my lapsed membership.  It's been lapsed for several years now.

What's the NRA promising to do to get me to renew?  Are they promising to fight any new "assault weapon" ban?  Are they vowing to lobby in favor of a national concealed-carry law mandating that all states recognize all other states' carry permits?  Promise no more of the endless compromises that salami-slice away my rights?

No.

Nothing like that.

They're offering me a "heavy-duty" NRA-branded duffel bag.

YOU INFERNAL IDIOTS!!!  IT'S NOT ABOUT THE DAMNED BLING!!!

The NRA is pretty worthless in many ways. They are the largest but they've either screwed up like they did in DC the first time a good challenge came up or interfered with a good CCW law in Georgia cramming in a license and qualification. This has happened a lot more than it should.

I can hope they will become better but I'll send my money to the JPFP, GOA etc.
