NRA Board Member Blasts “Leadership” In Letter to Fellow Board Members

“When restitution was mandated, a bonus was awarded the miscreants including enough money to pay the restitution.”

Here is the text of the letter sent by Owen “Buz” Mills to fellow NRA Board Members:

TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE

NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA

So, now we are all looking towards New York and Justice Cohen’s courtroom. Our attention is diverted here while chicanery continues in Fairfax.

The National Rifle Association of America (NRA) is at a watershed moment in its 153rd year. Our leadership has admitted in courts and depositions to misappropriation of donor’s funds and unauthorized use of assets. They have admitted condoning the misuse of donor funds by others employed by the NRA. The leadership has for years abused their position and trust placed in them by our members and benefactors. The Board of Directors (BOD) is solely responsible for this victimization of the members. Read more
