Keene is extreme? Read article -- here he's endorsing Brady.

WASHINGTON -- The head of the National Rifle Association says the organization has no problem with tighter background checks of gun purchasers.

But association president David Keene also says too much emphasis has been placed on banning certain firearms.
In an interview on "CBS This Morning" Thursday, Keene argues, quote, "The real question that needs to be addressed is not what we do about guns, but what we do to make our schools safer."
The NRA has come under close scrutiny in the wake of Newtown, Conn., shootings that killed 20 children and six adults.
Keene said officials should focus more attention on a "devastatingly broken mental health system in this country," if they genuinely want to end gun violence.
He said the NRA has been "generally supportive" of stronger background checks.

Maybe I'm missing something here, Dudley, but can you point out where Keene is endorsing Brady in the above article, please? As is typical of almost everything you say about the NRA you're being a bit intellectually dishonest.

I've supported RMGO for the past several years despite your constant attacks on the NRA. The NRA is not the perfect organization. Granted. But none is. Not even RMGO. I'm sick and tired of your constant bashing of the NRA. It's offensive to me as a Benefactor Life Member.

I was about to contribute $35 to the RMGO for 2013. I'll pass now. When you get 4 million members get back to me. When you stop being part of the problem by constantly attacking pro-gun people and organizations and start trying to work with other organizations instead of constantly working to fracture the work they're doing, get back to me. Maybe then I'll consider contributing to RMGO. Until then, I'm done supporting RMGO, I'm done recommending others support RMGO and I'm done referring other gun owners to RMGO's website. I'm not going to actively work against your organization but I'm sure as hell not going to work for it.

Got to agree.

The head of the National Rifle Association says the organization has no problem with tighter background checks of gun purchasers.

Everyone knows that the Brady Handgun Control Act was to relax the existing laws regarding background checks

Thanks for stating what many of us feel. RMGO's constant attacks are becoming boring and are not helping.

Dudley says we should not become members.....that's one thing we can all agree on.
