Newsweek logoNRA Files For Voluntary Bankruptcy, Vows to Reincorporate in Texas
The gun manufacturers' lobbying group, the National Rifle Association (NRA) has filed for voluntary bankruptcy and vowed to reincorporate in Texas, according to a statement released Friday by the NRA's Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre.

"Today, the NRA announced a restructuring plan that positions us for the long-term and ensures our continued success as the nation's leading advocate for constitutional freedom-free from the toxic political environment of New York," LaPierre wrote in his statement.
"The plan can be summed up quite simply: We are DUMPING New York, and we are pursuing plans to reincorporate the NRA in Texas," he continued.
"To facilitate the strategic plan and restructuring, the NRA and one of its subsidiaries have filed voluntary chapter 11 petitions in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division. As you may know, chapter 11 proceedings are often utilized by businesses, nonprofits and organizations of all kinds to streamline legal and financial affairs," LaPierre added.

Fox News website has a report.
It seems that New York where the NRA is headquartered has been lawsuiting them to death.
This seems to be a move to ditch the lawsuits.
We need the NRA more now than ever.
Have you ever heard the Democrats rant and rail against GOA? That tells me the NRA is doing it's job.

It doesn't. But the bankruptcy will halt the law suits. I am pretty sure anyway. Might not kill them, but will stop current litigation.

I dropped the NRA years ago when they sent me a NRA hat that said “Made in China”
Gimme a break.

We are going to need the NRA to get their shit straight. Their undivided attention should be on Joe and Ho who have already written EO's. Sheila Stupid Lee has five Bills I understand she wants to put to the floor. Their going to come after the guns hard, no moderation. It's their last obstacle to total and complete power.

You are correct - HQ is in Virginia. I misspoke.
It is incorporated in New York.

Never managed to bond too deep with those folks other than to take some shooting lessons at Boy Scout camp..which was very cool. They had a grizzled old Military Guy from Washington to let us shoot some big single shot .22s and skeet with smooth bore .22s with rat shot at close range. His said Washington was Green Country and Texas was parched country. Finally joined up later in life to enter a few pistol comps when some pals and I got into the metallic silhouette NRA hunters course. No equipment race there as happened with rifles. You shot the gun as it came from the box..dicker with inside all you want. I will show the trophies one day. lol. Hope they have the smartest lawyers in the contest. We live under a Judicial Dictatorship as most of us know.

Agree with that. The free press and the first ammendent are gone. The 2nd wlll be the next to fall. Then they can grab all the wealth and distribute is as they see fit.
Look at Mexico.

With Viking horns and an American flag paintjob on your face and all exposed body parts.
Look at Venezuela, used to be one of the richest countries as far as natural resources went, petroleum and minerals. Now look at it. Cuba is another example of what not to do, but Schumer, Pelosi, Colonel Sanders, AOC & the squad can't see what socialism does. They think THEY can make it work in America.

Therein lies most of the problem. Way too much concern about cheap chicom chit than 2nd Amendment freedom. Excellent point @KUSA

I’m undecided. I have been an NRA member for years and my renewal is due now. But I’m a little pissed at the way Wayne has used the NRA as his personal piggybank to fund his lavish lifestyle. And seems to me that the NRA has been a little absent recently in some major gun control fights. Guess that’s because their money and lawyers are busy fighting off their corruption lawsuits. I joined GOA. But right now I am leaning towards dumping the NRA. I don’t really want my dues money buying Wayne another pair of silk panties or an overnite stay at a 5 star hotel.

I will buy Wayne some new silk panties if he helps us hold onto the 2A a little longer.
