[QUOTE="DirtyDawg, post: 1147448, member: 9113"] I had the same question....so I called the NRA-ILA on May 10th...read below for their response. DirtyDawg. From: DirtyDawg Sent: Monday, May 10, 2010 7:13 PM To: All of my friends Subject: the NRA is taking a "neutral stance" on HB 3354 Open Carry Importance: High I recently met Michael Phillips and Kristiana Cupp with the NRA-ILA (institute for legislative affairs). They were working the booth at the entrance to the Wanemacher Gun Show a few weeks ago asking folks to join the NRA. My conversation began with "I did not renew my membership with the NRA because they compromise & fail to get involved with 2nd Amendment issues". Overall, we had a very good conversation but I refused to join the NRA because I cannot support an organization that campaigns on being an advocate for 2nd amendment rights, but fails or compromises my rights away. Well...with HB3354 sitting on the governor's desk and no endorsement to my knowledge by the NRA, I called my Michael & Kristiana to find out why the NRA has not rallied their members for support. Knowing some history on the NRA, I shouldn't have been surprised, but, I was shocked when I was told by the assistant to Ashley Garner (NRA-ILA rep assigned to Oklahoma) that "the NRA is taking a neutral stance on this legislation until Governor Henry announces his decision!!" She went on to say that the NRA will not be contacting any of its members in Oklahoma until Governor Henry makes his decision. My response was "Why isn't the NRA rallying its members to contact their legislators & Governor Henry to sign this bill into law?" All she could say was "we are taking a neutral stance" I'll let the NRA members decide their actions, but I can only hope that you call the NRA and ask for support to get this legislation signed into law. Krisitiana Cupp (grassroots coordinator) can be contacted at 703-267-1194 or [email]kcupp@nrahq.org[/email] If we citizens don't participate in this experiment of self-governance, it will surely fail and fall into a dictatorship. Please share this with all of your friends that rely upon the NRA to represent them on issues concerning restoration of the 2nd Amendment and gun laws. We need to immediately apply pressure to get the NRA to endorse this bill that is sitting on the Governors desk. DirtyDawg [/QUOTE]
