Please allow me to frame my questions with some opening thoughts:
How should I consider the National Rifle Association (NRA)? At their core, they support one of my beliefs. However, I have witnessed some very worrisome actions and heard irrational words from people holding the NRA flag above their heads.
I find myself wanting to approach gun rights as I do my other beliefs; by working at the local level and associating with people that I can come to know personally. Yet, so many local organizations seem to strongly support or demand support for the NRA; support I'm not certain I can provide.
How do other members consider and respond to the NRA?
How are each of you active in supporting your beliefs?
- I enjoy the natural landscape and strongly urge for the care, maintenance, and responsible use of our environment and natural resources.
- I believe in treating all living things with respect and that animals and pets deserve to live dignified and meaningful lives. I also believe in hunting and in domestication of livestock.
- I support the belief that citizens and peace officers be allowed to own and use firearms, for sport and defense of life and liberty.
