.. which is why even though I am a supporter of gun rights, I find the NRA a completely useless organization populated with idiot extremists.

I hope this polls was not meant to suggest that all gun owners belong to the NRA and are therefore also RW.

it was not meant to suggest that. It was specifically addressing the NRA and it's politics.

Now they rate their members votes in congress on issues not related to guns; happened twice in last two weeks.
They are the blackmailers of our congress along with TeaParty. They threatens everyones rights while saying they are for them.
Soon we will be just as safe as Mexico, if they had their way.
