Wayne LaPierre effectively completed the transformation of the NRA from a gun enthusiast/conservationist club into an aggressive Republican/gun rights lobbying arm.
And then it came out that he was using the organization as his own personal piggy bank, after which he resigned.
I think the NRA will be dealing with the consequences of that for a long time. Turns out even people who are dumb enough to think teachers should have to carry guns as a defense against students with guns don't like the idea of the CEO of the NRA getting rich off their dues.
The foaming at the mouth about "government tyranny" was just a load of bullshit to help rake in the money so Wayne could afford to take more personal trips on the corporate jet.
