Members of the Libertarian Party are well aware of the NRA's anti-freedom, anti-gun agenda. And the raving "campaign finance reform" leftist movement, the curious nexus of Stalinism and McCarthyism, is unaware of a fundamental political reality. When an interest group "buys" access to a politician, it buys access not only through cash, but through compromise.
The NRA may be as or more corrupt and comprimised as Congress itself. No libertarian gun owner I've met has been a member of the organization. Leftists who hate private guns (or who believe in arbitrary state murder, which is the same thing - think Waco) are simply misinformed if they identify the NRA with honest gun rights advocacy.

Well there are a few ... or at least one I know
of ... who was once an NRA member a long
time ago ... when he was much younger.
