i´m not a member of any political organizations....i have my own ideas and don´t think i need an organization to frame them.

P.S.-just a quick question...i was under the impression that the .org domain of web adresses was reserved for organizations related to the american government...like the whitehouse, nasa and so forth.
pray do tell why the hell is the NRA website is a .org domain???

scooter_the_shooter 16:04 08-09-2005

You'd never get anywhere with your 'unique' ideas in a place like America. The whole idea of 'special interest groups' that get derided so much is that instead of giving your $25 donation to your senator and getting $25 worth of listening time (about 352 micro-seconds, depending upon the constituency), you pool your resources with like minded individuals.

To that end, I donate to the NRA, the Heritage Foundation and ONE (1% of national budget to end hunger & poverty, I think it's called MakePovertyHistory in Europe).

The National Motorists Association

http://motorists.org Yes, I am so virulently opposed to speed traps and money making vehicle regs that I joined this org above all others.

I've also considered donating to the Gun Owners of America, "The only no-compromise gun lobby in Washington." http://gunowners.org.
