NRA was founded in 1870 and was originally called ARA, the American Rifle Association.
After World War I, it was renamed the National Rifle Association
The NRA, which is now actively involved in politics, has great influence.
The NRA's governing body is a large board of directors with a long history of 75 directors.
Everything needs a vote. Two thirds of the votes represent the resolution.
The chairman of the board of directors is elected by the members from 75 races for a term of one year.
As a matter of fact, the chairman is just a target at the front desk. He has the same rights as other members, but his name is better.
It is the vice president who has real power, but its external name is "chief executive."
Chief executive officer, these words are combined together. I believe everyone has already understood who the real power figure is!
The most influential members of the NRA are Max and the Koch family.
Max group company mainly deals with transportation, automobile and limited media.
It owns the third largest television company in the United States and is a shareholder of GM and Ford.
The main industries of the Koch family are oil, trade, pipeline transportation and animal husbandry.
The family's operating philosophy is to never let outsiders interfere in the business.
So, to this day, all shares of Koch are in the hands of its family members.
But the performance of its members is impressive, and its family assets continue to grow at a rate of more than 20% a year.
As an arms giant, one of the famous arms manufacturers in North America.
Li should have maintained a close and friendly relationship with NRA.
The truth is, they have never met before.
The relationship between the NRA and the arms manufacturers is not so harmonious. They are blind and arrogant, which is hard to accept.
Unconditional support for the second amendment sounds good for them.
But if you put it into practice, you'll find it's just a piece of shit.
No weapon manufacturer wants to hear about shootings and murders related to their own weapons.
Automatic weapons, in particular, have the same goals for weapon manufacturers and gun controllers.
They all believe that the threshold of higher standards should be set for buyers, rather than the existing requirements.
In the past six months, 126 shootings have occurred in New York, Philadelphia, Los Angeles and Chicago.
In these cases, automatic weapons were used in 16 cases.
The number of innocent deaths was 21, which was concerned and denounced by the United States.
The shares of the manufacturers of automatic weapons used in the case were greatly affected, falling by more than 16.6%.
The loss is more than 80 million US dollars, and the estimated loss will reach 120 million yuan.
Among them, Vesta, Otto, Springfield and other well-known arms manufacturing companies in the United States.
They all want to reach a new gun control bill with the government to reduce losses, reduce public attention to cases and crazy accusations against weapon manufacturers.
But the NRA cries out: holding a gun is every citizen's freedom. It's not weapons that kill, it's people who kill.
Then he launched his own lobbying team to bomb the Congress.
And bluntly threatened: "Whoever dares to support gun control is the enemy of NRA."
"And the enemy will be wiped out by us at the muzzle of our gun."
Yes, the NRA is so arrogant.
They even dare to go to the door directly and threaten the current members and judges, telling them that if they do not change their attention, they will have great trouble finding them.
Because it not only has money and guns!
Behind it are more than four million loyal members, who are also the most important source of income for the NRA.
80% of their lobbying funds, management and expenses are paid by membership dues.
Donations from the outside world and support from arms companies are of no importance at all.
It also makes the NRA independent, they don't have to look at anyone's face.
Just unite the members, and the votes they have.
It is enough to maintain the independence and aloofness of its organization and its strong influence on politics.
In his previous life, Li Zitao remembers that Omaha had fought against NRA.
Bypass Congress and sign 21 gun control bills.
But after his resignation, the NRA's powerful lobbying team immediately convinced Congress to repeal Omaha's gun control act.
Some of the surviving articles are in vain without the support of the core bill.
Omaha shed tears in her speech Although there is a performance element.
But even if the NRA slapped him in the face, Omaha only complained a few words in the face of the media, and there was no one against NRA in the whole process.From this point, we can see how powerful the NRA was.
Today's NRA has not yet grown into a terrible scale that makes the president cry but has no choice.
But it is also a political capital force that cannot be ignored in the United States.
"Actually, Charlie, there's something I should tell you first."
"What?"
Li Zitao suddenly saw a badger, "Eden... There!"
He pointed to the badger under the tree trunk softly, and Li Zitao rubbed his hands and feet and walked forward.
"Shh!"
Pearl made a silent gesture to Jennie, and the two sisters lowered themselves and approached the prey carefully.
"Aidan, it's mine." Pearl quickened his pace when he saw his brother aim his shotgun.
It was the crossbow in her hand that slowed her down.
"Well! Let's see who shoots more accurately
Eden waited for her to stand with herself before she raised the gun again.
"Jennie!"
Jennie put her small pocket gun into the gun bag, quickly squatting on the ground, holding the front end of the crossbow with both hands.
"Ready to let go."
Whoosh!
Two voices sounded at the same time, and the frightened badger just looked up.
The body is carried out by the powerful inertia of the crossbow.
That some cute face, become flesh and blood
“wohno!”
Pearl looked at the carcass of the badger, which had been nailed to the trunk and swung back and forth. Pearl said with regret, "Eden, you've destroyed a hat!"
Badger fur is the top material for fur. Eden's gun destroyed its value.
"Hey, don't be so mean!" Aydin make complaints about the way.
After a long and boring journey, I finally have time to have some fun. Don't be so disappointed, OK?
Hearing the "friendly" communication between the two, Li Zitao said to Jennie, "Jennie, go and bring the prey back."
The little girl ran to the tree with the corpse hanging, and she didn't feel afraid at all!
At the age of six, she had learned to hunt!
But at that time, he was taken by his father to watch him and other adults chase their prey.
Little Jennie has also dissected the corpse of deer by herself
She still feels sick to this day, but she doesn't resist!
"By the way, what did you just tell me, dear?"
Li Zitao looked at her with a smile and said casually, "it reminds me of the days when I used to go hunting with Xiao Shi and Jin."
