Apparently the NRA has been getting around 8,000 new members a day since the tragedy. Theyve also been getting increased contributions from people. All in all a good sign. Question here is what is the appropriate tact for them to take? Play nice and listen to proposals or draw line in sand. Looking foward to their big presser on Friday

Draw a line. Give em an inch and they'll run miles.

They better hold their ground. The NRA is the organization that teaches and promotes firearm safety and responsibility. I know they will have to talk the talk, but they better walk the walk. If not handled properly this could turn out to be our Dunblane.

Everyone needs to join if your not a member. And get friends who go shooting with you sometimes to join even if they dont own any guns. I got 3 new members today that dont even own any guns just like the sport and want to support it.

I also just made an additional donation. I have been really wavering on what I'm hoping them to do. Where I'm coming out: flexibility on improving background checks; zero flexibility on gun bans; maybe -- maybe, discussion of magazine capacity restrictions. I'm hoping for them to bring up concealed carry although of course not expecting an acknowledgement or compromise from the other side on that.

Just signed up four today...... and had all four make an extra contribution to the fight

Great job Nick..if all dealers in the U S followed suit our collective voice will be much louder

I am definitely signing up with GOA, especially after Mr. Pratt's performance in shutting down Piers Morgan on his show. I am just a bit shaky on the NRA though right now -- for some reason I have the sinking suspicion that they are going to cave or try to compromise with people who refuse to be compromised with (as exhibited in the fiscal cliff talks). I am going to wait until I hear what they have to say and their tone on Friday. It would be a shame if they go soft - all I want to see is them standing firm. I thought their Facebook posting yesterday was a good first step.

I've never been a member. Always heard they abandoned NJ. Just became a member yesterday. We need all the help we can get right now.

Same story here, I signed up yesterday. It's not a lot, but I do feel a certain pride in taking a real stance.

Glad to see this mark, I dropped some change in the pot as well.

I don't think they really abandoned NJ. They just used their resources elsewhere. By them helping elsewhere it helps strengthen our arguments here (recent victory in illinois). As far as guns vs. no guns, NJ is heavily no guns. time and money would have been wasted without gain. I've been a member since I was 12 or 13 and I would never think of not re-upping my membership.

I donated to SAF and NJ2AS and renewed my membership with GOA plus I gave them a small donation, I'm an NRA member but I'm holding off on donating, I want to see what they have to say on friday, if its good I'll donate and convince my gf and sister to join also hopefully my dad

I also joined yesterday.

My humble interpretation NRA HQ over the last few days

 

 

Mind you theyve probably spent very little in PR over the past week.

Just remember guys and girls , United We Stand ... Divided We Fall !!!!!!!!!!! We got to stick together and pressure our state reps not to give in to this Knee Jerk reaction !!

The day after the tragedy, I went to NRA-ILA and made a $50 donation. After dumping loads of money into the election, they're going to need all the money they can get.

Hopefully they do have that much in the war chest. We are going to need it. Money talks in Washington.

A reference to "Duck Tales" in a thread about the NRA. Now I've seen everything.

Just wrote out my renewal check tonight. In the mail tomorrow. Maybe more after the Holidays.

Just joined.

Just joined too.

Just became a life member of Gun Owners of America, and the Second Amendment Foundation.

Wife and I both signed up today.

Been a lifey for years and usually give 50-100 xtra per year. Any Gun-Owner Not a member is making a mistake, They are our only hope! I remember the posts from some forum members about obummer. And voting FOR him! This is the result.

Not scared of anything. It just seems like an appropriate time to put your money where your mouth is. Hardly pathetic if you ask me..

Nothing wrong with supporting the NRA now, although the support should've been there the day ANYONE buys their first gun.
