Does anyone else get a ridiculous amount of email/mail spam from them? I have been a member for a few years now and the amount of crap that fills up my inbox is getting out of control. They are right up there with the porn sites my email get bombarded with daily.

I will continue to support them only because I fear that if I let my membership lapse they will hunt me down even more.


Anyone else think they communicate a bit too often?

 

No. They've stepped it up since Obama was elected, and for good reason. 2A is about to be attacked like never before. The need for awareness and resources is at an all time high. You would be surprised how many NRA members are oblivious to what is going on, much less the general population.

 

Yes. Even before the election, I found their e-mailing to be relentless. I am fairly convinced that they sell e-mail addresses to advertising firms. Fortunately, I signed up with an e-mail account that I rarely use, and after about a month of clicking, I was finally able to unsubscribe to their onslaught of spam.
I also think that they mail way too much stuff. I don't need four reminders in my mailbox a month (and sometimes in duplicate) asking me to buy a lifetime membership so I can get a sweet leather jacket that Jean-Claude Van Damme from Time Cop brought back from his trip to the 80's.
My membership cost is probably close to what they've spent on me in useless mailings.

NRA's cause is good, but I'd be lying if I said I haven't considered cancelling my membership over their harassing marketing crap.

 

I got my wife one of their sweatshirts as a joke when I initially signed up. The only time I saw her getting any use out of it was to clean up a mess one of my dogs made after drinking too much water. I'm not quite sure where it is now.

We were joking about the exact same thing in regards to their expenses when it comes to loading up our physical mailbox. I'm already a member! I don't need more reminders on how to become a member.

 

I gave up nra after realizing they do NOTHING...esp for california residents. And I got tired of their mail spam too.

 

WHAT????? I've been a life member for years and all I got was a stupid hat......I hate hats.
