They don't have enough money to fight anti-gun legislation, but they can still make a custom cell phone case!

    Hah, you got the same email I did just now, didn'tcha?

    Well, the case cost'em probably $3-5 manufactured and shipped, so I'd say there's nothing wrong, they are making a few bucks.

    Actually they probably just licensed their name and logo to whatever company is really running this phone thing. But it just gets me when an organization always cries poor and then turns around and wants to sell you a menagerie of logo merchandise.

    Yes, that's why it costs them $3-5 vs. $1-2

    Again, that's just a way for them to make a buck. HOW they use it -- is the real question.

    The NRA does spend money against the anti-gun legislation/actions. For example their lawsuit (along with the SAF) against the gun confiscation in New Orleans after the Hurricane.

    But you already know that. It is just apparent that some think the NRA has a trust fund or something and doesn't need to beg for any funds with which to operate. Or that the executives of the NRA should either work cheap or for free. Just as all of us want to do.

    The president of the United States makes $400,000 a year to run this COUNTRY.
    Wayne Lapierre needs $1,000,000 (yes that is ONE MILLION) a year
    to be VICE President of the NRA???
    Lets see, how many memberships does it take to pay this ONE man?
