They report that only half of the booth space has been rented out with little more than a month to go. That in and of itself isn&#8217;t good. They also note that organizations like the Second Amendment Foundation which have traditionally had booths at the Annual Meeting are turning down the &#8220;opportunity&#8221;. I had known that and was told by my friends at SAF that they considered it a &#8220;waste of money&#8221; to be there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second is even more disturbing. It concerns upkeep of the NRA headquarters building in Fairfax. Even when not occupied or lightly occupied, you still have to do the upkeep or the building falls apart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Second, the headquarters building is being allowed to deteriorate. Rain is penetrating the roof, sometimes pooling on the floor and running through passages through floors to soak lower stories. Most of the surviving employees are still working from home, so this is a building that has largely been unoccupied for over a year, and over two summers. Likely a major mold problem will follow, if it isn\u2019t there already. There is money enough for tens of millions in legal fees, but no money to fix the headquarters roof.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>NRA in Danger speculates that the board is unaware of these issues as they are being kept in the dark by Wayne and the rest of the Gang of Four. If so, it is malfeasance on the part of the leadership and a continued refusal by the board to do <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/2021\/03\/09\/fiduciary-duties-and-the-nra-board.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">their fiduciary duty of care<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The blog NRA In Danger is reporting on two more indicators of trouble for the NRA.
