the NRA is like any other lobbyist group; they want more money, and more power, and wrap themselves in the 2A to get it.

There may be a modicum of truth to that. However, regardless of motives, the NRA
does have a positive effect on 2A legislation on the Local, State and Federal levels. Those of us who are members use the NRA as much as the NRA uses us. If you want pure motives, join a monastery. ("You" used collectively). The only thing congress members understand is money. If there's no NRA or other lobby groups, it would be much easier for our basic rights to be compromised. As ugly as the money issue is, it's something we have to endure until congress becomes the aforementioned monastery.
