NRA caught '‘mixing’ corporate funds with Pac funds and solicitations, among other possible violations

April 23, 2015 by Paul Spoerry 3 Comments



The NRA’s brazen shell game with donations: A Yahoo News investigation
The National Rifle Association raises millions of dollars in donations, but the way these are solicited and handled seems to violate key provisions of both tax law and the Federal Election Campaign Act, according to some of the nation’s top experts on these statutes. Contributions to the association’s lobbying arm wound up subsidizing its campaign efforts, violating rules meant to protect the public from misleading solicitations.

The National Rifle Association and its two arms for lobbying and campaign contributions may have systemically violated political spending law.

    ….and the point is? Is it, hey, look over here at this, and pay no attention the scandal ridden, completely insincere, playing us for a fool, train wreck, that the left is propping up as presidental material?

    uhhhhh… no. I think the point is that a giant organization who's sole purpose these days is guns, guns, and more guns has been illegally funneling money to their PAC. Also… I don't believe it specifically highlighted a left/right position (though if I had to guess the NRA is primarily funding Republican's).

    I have no idea which scandal ridden person the left is you're referring to.

    Mrs. Clinton.

    …..and I'm all for more guns. (of course you already know that) however if they are breaking the law, I would want them to be held accountable and punished.

    ……just like Mrs. Clinton.
