I don't have a problem with the NRA. They may not be doing things in accordance with my own personal agenda and goals, but they are pretty much representative of how I feel about RKBA issues.
Simply put, the vast majority of talking-points brought up in the article are valid on their face. It is when you go into the little paragraphs explaining the authors take on them that it seems to go off into LaLa land.
My thoughts are that the NRA is slowly and carefully peeling away the nasty-smelling layers of the Gun Control Onion that we have seen grow over the years and generations. What the author fails to realize is that if you take a knife and cut straight into that Onion (remove all currently existing restrictions on RKBA and related issues), you create such a big stink that none of it is palatable to the general public.
I believe that a fair number of us all want to achieve the ultimate goal of minimal restrictions and almost total rollback of any laws and regulations that contravene the intent of the Second Amendment. Where we differ is how we go about doing it. Hard and Fast, or Nice and Easy.

Re: The Day I’ll Join The NRA – An Open Letter To Ted Nugent
I would have to say that I agree with almost all of the points made, but almost none of the methodology suggested.
