I'm not a big joiner, and I won't belong to either of these. The ACLU crosses lines I don't like. Ditto the NRA. But I'm simpatico with the average member of both.
Well, I had to join one, to be able to use a shooting range I want to use; the other was for balance. Truth is, though neither likes to admit it, they are on the same side on some of the big issues.
Liberty is sometimes complicated.
And, I confess, I didn't mind that it screws with people's head now and again ...
If I had to join a gun rights organization it would be JPFO, not NRA, but that only works if they gave you a choice. The range we go to doesn't make you join anything besides itself!
Definitely a PNW thing. "The long hair don't cover up the red neck."
