The money powering the NRA

http://money.cnn.com/news/cnnmoney-investigates/nra-funding-donors/

From a small-town pharmacist to a commercial pilot, it's not just gunmakers that are funding the National Rifle Association’s political battles.

...snip...

Some political funding comes from big corporations, many within the gun industry, which donate millions to the NRA. But companies are barred from donating to the NRA’s political action committee, which the agency uses to fill campaign coffers, run ads and send out mailers for and against candidates.

The top ten donors to the NRA aren't CEOs or 1%ers.

Who donates the most money to pro-control and what do you have in common with them?

The gun control side are the ones being funded largely by ONE MAN, an EX-Repuke authoritarian Micheal Bloomberg... Well over 6 million individuals fund the NRA.

To acknowledge that fact, means they admit just how outside the mainstream they really are, and begs to ask, why are they so beholden to one rich man's money?
