Letter to the Editor of
the Daily Record (Morris County, NJ newspaper)
In Rob Jennings' July 12, 2003 article, NRA
Board Member Chooses Guns Over Love, I am quoted as saying that
before becoming conservative, I grew up believing everything I'd heard
about NRA - that they are "a bunch of redneck extremists."
In my interview, I explained that before joining NRA, my impression was
based on biased media stereotypes, but that after meeting members and
scrutinizing the group's publications with an attorney's eye, I
discovered that NRA is entirely different.
NRA is a fellowship of millions devoted to the singular mission of
defending freedom from its adversaries. Nearly all members are
polite, responsible folks; some don't even own a firearm. The
Board of Directors includes visionary thinkers and courageous leaders.
NRA's mission includes protecting the Bill of Rights, promoting public
safety, and training law enforcement. That's the real face of
NRA, and your readers need to know it.
