He and his self-serving cronies have turned the NRA into a super PAC with the primary aim of rewarding themselves with members' money. Am hopeful that the NY state AG's investigation will result in the whole crew of them going to jail so the NRA can get back to its roots of supporting competition, hunting and gun ownership & training. Am so tired of the NRA begging more money from members in order to line their own pockets.

So based on that statement, you feel that you have the right to own the type of firearms you want to own, but the rest of the law-abiding shooting community doesn't have the right to own a semi-automatic rifle, simply because you don't have a need for one.
That's exactly the problem, you get to have what you want, but we don't get to have what you don't like.
Hypocrisy at its finest...
