@sidereal I think the gun lobby strategy to thin the US population (while financing their lavish lifestyle) has been to entice collectors (wealthy) to have multiple guns, make cocaine products or other amphetamines available and glamorous, add a tincture of cocktail culture and first person shooter games. Make this lifestyle and/fantasy aspirational to wannabes and misogynists. #Toxicmixture #gunlobby #richwhitemenwithguns #malefantasies

#NYAG James began investigating the org 4 yrs ago amid reports of runaway spending practices. Since then, it has been in a tailspin.

Membership has plummeted from nearly 6M 5yrs ago to 4.2M today. Revenue is down 44% since 2016, acc/to internal audits, & #legal costs have soared to tens of millions a year.

Nonetheless, the gun rights movement has become a bulwark of #conservative #politics during #LaPierre’s yrs leading the #NRA.

The development will change the shape of the NYC trial, since #NYAG #LeticiaJames was seeking to oust #WayneLaPierre from his position. She is also seeking financial penalties from #LaPierre & 3 other defendants.

LaPierre played a leading role in transforming #GunCulture in #America, but the last ½ decade of his tenure at the #NRA was marred by scandals & internal upheaval.

“With pride in all that we have accomplished, I am announcing my resignation from the NRA. I’ve been a card-carrying member of this organization for most of my adult life, & I will never stop supporting the NRA & its fight to defend Second Amendment freedom. My passion for our cause burns as deeply as ever,” #LaPierre said in a stmnt.

#LaPierre to step down as #NRA leader

#WayneLaPierre, longtime ldr of the NRA, resigned Fri as chief exec, days before a #corruption #trial involving the #gun rights group begins in a NYC court.

LaPierre, 74, cited “health reasons” for his decision. He’s served as NRA's chief since 1991.

Over many years, #LaPierre & cronies allegedly used #NRA membership dues like a private piggy bank, financing everything from sweetheart employment deals to luxe travel & LaPierre’s shopping sprees….

A #judge wrote that the allegations convey “a grim story of #greed, self-dealing, & lax #financial #oversight at the highest levels of the National Rifle Association.”

@abbadon @Alan I know, because I’ve been sharing it for 5 years of #MassShootings nearly every day.

The #NRA is a #Russian asset, and the #GOP is in the pocket of the #GunLobby. So, can Americans add two and two? Or did they kill #CommonCore #MATH skills along with #BannedBooks ? 🤔
