I'm a member of the NRA and I've read several threads that had things against them...but they are the largest RKBA group in the country and I feel even if you don't support everything they do, if you are a gunowner, you should be a member....
...but with that said, I just re-upted my membership for a two-year stretch about 4 or 5 months ago (i.e. I have another 1.5 years left in my membership) and yesterday I receive a "will you extend your membership to help fight the 2008 democratic candidates" mailer. Now that's annoying. I don't really mind all the other junk they send to me trying to sell stuff, I usually don't buy but as long as they get some people to buy then it's turning a profit. But when I am not even half way into my paid membership and they want me to extend? Isn't that a bit ridiculous?
As another side note...I would love to be able to fork over the $500 to become a life member, but that's not possible right now. Heck, if I did it, they'd probably still send me mailers to extend my membership!
Like the title says...a "small" vent.
