Didn’t I see somewhere that this was expected to happen? Think it’ll make any difference in gun legislation down the road? NRA on CNN

I’m not surprised. With all of the reports last year of their misuse of $, it’s not unexpected. I know sales of guns & ammo go up with a Democratic President, I wonder if NRA membership increases, too? I would love for bankruptcy to be the nail in their coffin, but I don’t think we’ll get that lucky.

NRA has a cycle.
1. Ramp up the conspiracy theories.
2. Scream that “they” are going to take your guns (whoever the fuck “they” are)
3. In turn, this elevates gun and ammo sales which in turn kicks back to NRA memberships and bought sponsorships
4. Which then funds all the bat shit crazy republican clown politicians with huge donations
5. Repeat every presidential election.

From The Guardian above:
"Dave Dell’Aquila, a former tech company boss who has donated more than $100,000 to the NRA, told the Guardian on Saturday he was preparing to lodge a complaint in US bankruptcy court in Dallas, Texas. If successful, it could stop top NRA executives discharging a substantial portion of the organisation’s debts.
It could also stop Wayne LaPierre, the NRA’s controversial longtime chief executive, avoiding ongoing lawsuits that allege he defrauded the pro-gun group’s members to pay for luxury travel to the Bahamas and Europe and high-end Zegna suits.
LaPierre has denied the allegations of financial impropriety, insisting in a letter to NRA members that the group is “well-governed, financially solvent and committed to good governance”.
Dell’Aquila’s complaint, likely to be brought within the next few weeks, would use a provision of the bankruptcy code to prevent the NRA from sidestepping more than $60m of debt on grounds it was improperly incurred. The law stipulates that debts acquired through malfeasance can be deemed by the court to be an exception to bankruptcy arrangements."

NRA's LaPierre sought refuge on yacht after shootings: 'Thank God I'm safe'BY MYCHAEL SCHNELL - 04/06/21 10:29 AM EDT “And this was the one place that I hope could feel safe, where I remember getting there going, ‘Thank God I’m safe, nobody can get me here.’ And that’s how it happened. That’s why I used it,” he added. LaPierre said his first stay on the boat, which was equipped with “two or three or four staff people,” a cook and two jet-skis, was the summer after the 2012 shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. He added that his last stay was “sometime in 2018 after the Parkland shooting in the summer.” The longtime NRA executive said he was “under all kinds of threats” and “did not feel safe anywhere with myself or my family.” He added that the vessel “was offered as a security retreat where we could be safe and feel safe.” Shannon Watts, the founder of Moms Demand Action, mocked LaPierre's comments on Twitter. "The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good friend with a yacht?" she asked. ** During her opening remarks this week, Assistant Attorney General Monica Connell said LaPierre’s use of the boat was a clear conflict of interest and infraction of regulations regarding the NRA’s nonprofit status, The Seattle Times reported. ** thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/546639-nras-lapierre-sought-refuge-on-yacht-after-shootings-thank-god-im-safe?rl=1Let's give them all guns.... Too bad our kids don't have a yacht to hide on!!
