There’s a move afoot, to keep the lunatics in charge of the asylum by replacing LaPierre with the one person on the Board who has done the most to enable LaPierre’s corruption and to protect him for the past several years – NRA President Charles Cotton.
Charles Cotton must never be allowed to head the NRA!

The same Charles Cotton who bullied users on his forum who voiced objections to the corruption? The same Charles Cotton who was on the board and the audit committee, yet denied all of the allegations that LaPierre has now testified that are true?Bitter Clinger wrote: ↑Wed Jan 31, 2024 8:30 am https://www.ammoland.com/2024/01/charle ... d-the-nra/

With that began the Marion Hammer era of near absolute control NRA the Board of Directors. Board members who had not toed the line – meaning unquestioned support for Wayne and “leadership” – were immediately stripped of committee assignments as punishment. Further they were not renominated by the Marion controlled Nominating committee and in three short years all dissenting voices were purged.
The sooner Hammer, Cotton and the rest of the old guard are dismissed from power the better.The next few years bring legal defeat after legal defeat costing yet to be determined tens (hundreds?) of millions of dollars in legal fees. The Board continued to do exactly nothing of consequence, to the contrary they have empowered Marion Hammers apparent successor Charles Cotton to the role of some sort of Supreme Commander to whom they now appear to march in lockstep to his every dictate.

The NRA Board needs to be reformed, however the current method of electing board members "approved" by those who need the reforming means the reformers can't get elected.Bitter Clinger wrote: ↑Fri Feb 09, 2024 7:21 am NRA Board Elections: Support the Four for Reform Candidates

Still a Life Member, don't know if I'll get a ballot since I no longer receive any NRA magazines.
Meh, nothing to see here. The NRA board investigated itself thoroughly and discovered no wrongdoing.bblhd672 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 09, 2024 9:05 amThe NRA Board needs to be reformed, however the current method of electing board members "approved" by those who need the reforming means the reformers can't get elected.Bitter Clinger wrote: ↑Fri Feb 09, 2024 7:21 am NRA Board Elections: Support the Four for Reform Candidates

I read an interview of Charles Cotton recently in which the interviewer asked several pointed questions about the kerfuffle at the NRA. From the interview I learned that none of the things that allegedly happened fell under the "jurisdiction" of the audit committee. Clearly this story would have a very different trajectory if the miscreants had raided accounts subject to audit committee scrutiny, I tell you what.

Former NRA CEO Wayne LaPierre Has Cost the Gun Rights Movement North Of A Billion Dollars

"Cotton was at the forefront, repeating the lies – and adding in a few of his own – while defending LaPierre at every turn with the docile Board meekly “believing” and parroting each and every iteration as gospel."

Amazing to me is how many otherwise seemingly quite intelligent active content contributors to txchl forum remained loyal long after it was clear what was happening to the NRA. Very few ever protested the banning that would occur on that site simply for the "crime" of dissenting with the party line politics of Cotton and his cronies. Well, looks like they have finally come home to roost. Very sad.bblhd672 wrote: ↑Wed Mar 06, 2024 2:30 pmAnd banning all dissenters from his forum....while stating that none of the allegations were true.Bitter Clinger wrote: ↑Wed Mar 06, 2024 7:26 am Former NRA CEO Wayne LaPierre Has Cost the Gun Rights Movement North Of A Billion Dollars
