The NRA understands success, which is a foreign concept to most gun control advocates. The NRA, SAF, CCRKBA, and GOA do what they need to do to get the job done. Now I'm not going to pretend to agree with the styling or approach of the NRA or GOA message, but its hard to say that its not effective.

I do have to give the NRA credit for trying to reach out to a more diverse audience including millennials. Unfortunately, the big pro 2A groups tend to have a more conservative styled message that alienates a lot of liberal or even moderate gun owners. Let's focus on gun rights, not abortion, gay marriage, or any of the other bull. I don't want to hear about that stuff. Although, the NRA is willing to support any politician with a pro 2A record.
