IronworkerI personally would be very skeptical of this list.

SIG228Fugg the NRA. Wish I had every dime I ever gave them back and they can stick my lifetime membership where the sun doesn’t shine! Every single person who has been in any sort of leadership role with the NRA since WLP has been in power is 100% complicit in his behavior.

smschulzWould it be too much to ask, to have DOGE do a once-over on the NRA, so I can go back to supporting and liking the NRA again?

tatortoddOh, hell no on parroting Bob Barr's list
We have an ongoing
4-page thread on actual reform candidates for NRA board. A NRA board member (Frustrated Middle Child) on the rebellious side even posted several times.

savoy6Bob Barr and the people on his "list" are part of the group who propped up Wayne LaPierre and failed completely in their fiduciary duty to any responsible governance of the NRA. As tatortodd said, refer to the previous thread and consider voting for the real reform candidates on the ballot.

He’s barking up the wrong tree…
I think we’ve all already voted for the reform candidates.
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

The NRA has already made financial reforms since 2018, which were acknowledged by the Court in the recent case. The case ended because the reforms were found acceptable to the court as sufficient to prevent any recurrence of financial improprieties by faithless executives.
This article
The Reforms Already Made provides details of the reforms made that were acknowledged by the court. These are the true reformers.

The comments below your linked article are interesting.
I have nothing personal against former U.S. Congressman Bob Barr, except he's been there a long time and supported Wayne LaPierre:
Those that got you into the mess are not the ones to get you out of the mess.

Apparently you didn't read the cited article about the reforms already made. Go back and read the link. Also, the court acknowledged that the reforms already made were deemed effective in "getting out of the mess".
So, we don't need to "get out of the mess" because we have already gotten out of the mess. WLP is gone and there are many safeguards in place to prevent any return of financial misdeeds.

Repair, Restore, Rebuild, Revive, Reform ... blah, blah, blah... from the people who have been covering for Wayne LaPierre and his inner circle for 20 + years.

Do you realize that the so-called "reform" candidates that you are supporting are led by people who were the biggest Wayne LaPierre supporters for many years?
