A and H,
My thoughts......
I don't even know where to start...
I believe that the President is the voice of the NFOA however the people who are the members are the policy makers....According to the bylaws.
You believe that "extreme, give no ground attitudes" should be avoided. I believe that attitudes of those who would give up thier rights such as you continue to do by saying we should give in to gain ( which you have insinuated many times on differant areas of this forum over and over) should be avoided.... That attitude still confuses the hell out of me. Please don't explain it .
Anyway, moving on..... I know of NO ONE here on this site that is or has promoted any "extreme cult" behavior. But, if standing up for what our founders (people smarter than you and me) wanted is extreme then I'll wear that badge with honor. Not the cult part.
Here are my final thoughts. Your last two posts spoke volumes to me. The things you talk about are some of the same things that those on the anti side have used to try to scare people over and over again. It's tiring.
When I contact the lawmakers that represent me and the voters of Nebraska I will tell them that I am a proud member of the NFOA along with the NRA.
Oh, The whole devils advocate thing is getting a little old.
I'm done. More important things to do than get sucked up in this again with you.
Later

Huskergun and anyone else who thinks I am with the antis:
I won't bother trying to explain anything to you any more. Consider yourself the winner(s) if you like. I have better things to do to.

Contrary to what some believe, I am more than the average member. I have personaly spoken to more NFOA members than anyone. I know how they feel, what they want to see out of our organization, and how they are scared of losing their guns. I can speak for over 400 members, because they have talked to me and expressed their concerns. And the overwhelming majority have the opinion that we should not compromise any more.
The average member signs up, and does not do any more than that. By signing up and letting me know what their concerns are, they have let me have their voice, because when I ask them to sign up, I say "Let the NFOA have your voice, let us speak for you when we talk to politicians."
Most are fed up with the NRA and their "Compromise your rights away" stance, and I tell them, "We don't compromise, we shouldn't have to." Some of our senators compromise, but those who listen to us know where we stand. We are damn lucky we have a few who believe as we do.
Armed and Humorous, I do not take offense to anything you have said, and don't think you are an anti. It is good you are here, you have livened up the boards, and it is good to see another opinion once in a while. We represent all guns owners in Nebraska, whether they own an AK47 or a cap and ball Colt, if they will let us.

I agree!!! I'm sick of compromise, compromising is what keeps getting our rights taken away bit by bit and more restrictions placed on those rights. I don't care if our goal of an unlimited 2A is likely to happen or not. I want NFOA unlike the NRA (which I am still a member of because they do do alot for the 2A) to fight ANY and ALL rules, policies, ordinances, and laws regulating firearms. The 2A says "A well regulated militia" not "well regulated arms"!
