Data Point – Growth of the NRA

by Skip

“Keene then exulted in the fact that despite incredible money from leftists and a mainstream media that opposes gun rights, that nonetheless over 58,000 Americans joined the NRA in one day after Obama gave his initial gun-control speech. Amazingly, the NRA’s membership has grown by roughly one million—an astounding 25% increase—since the middle of last year.”

Even as those on the Left deride the NRA as “being out of touch”.  Disclaimer – while several of the Groksters are NRA members (and instructors), I am not.  If the Left keeps up their demands that we give up our arms (or “legislatively confiscate them”), I probably will join.  I am also betting that many people like me, who aren’t rah-rah NRA folks now, may well become so as well.

And the anti-Constitutionalists will only have themselves to blame.

    Co-founder of GraniteGrok, my concern is around Individual Liberty and Freedom and how the Government is taking that away. As an evangelical Christian and Conservative with small "L" libertarian leanings, my fight is with Progressives forcing a collectivized, secular humanistic future upon us. As a TEA Party activist, citizen journalist, and pundit!, my goal is to use the New Media to advance the radical notions of America's Founders back into our culture.
