"Legend of America ( to find the latest chapter!
NRA was founded in 1870 and was originally named ARA when it was founded, which is the American Rifle Association.
After the end of World War I, it was renamed the National Rifle Association. ’
Now actively participating in politics, the NRA has huge influence.
The management body of the NRA is a large-scale board of directors with 75 directors for a long time.
Anything requires a vote, and two-thirds of the votes are passed on behalf of the resolution.
The chairman of the board is elected by members from 75 ethnic groups and serves a one-year term.
In fact, the chairman of the board is just a target at the front desk, and he has the same rights as other members, but with a better name.
It is the vice chairman who really holds the real power, but his external name is ‘Chief Executive Officer. ’
Chief Executive, these words are combined, I believe everyone already understands who is the real power!
The most influential in the NRA are the Max and the Ko family.
Max Group Company, mainly involved in transportation, automobile and limited media.
It holds the third largest limited television company in the United States and is one of the shareholders of General Motors and Ford.
The Koch family's main industries are petroleum, trade, pipeline transportation and animal husbandry.
The family's operating philosophy is to never let outsiders get involved in the company.
Therefore, until today Koch's shares are all in the hands of its family members.
But the performance of its members is impressive, and its family assets continue to increase at a rate of more than 20% per year.
As an arms giant, one of the well-known weapons manufacturers in North America.
Li Zitao should have maintained a close and friendly relationship with NRA.
The fact is that they had never had any intersection before today.
The relationship between NRA and weapon manufacturers is not so harmonious. They are blind and arrogant, which is unacceptable.
Unconditionally supporting the'Second Amendment,' sounds like a good thing for them.
But if you put it in place, you will find that it is completely shit.
No weapon manufacturer wants to hear about shootings and murders related to its own weapons.
Especially for automatic weapons, the goals of weapon manufacturers and gun controllers are the same.
They all believe that a higher threshold should be set for buyers, rather than the current requirements that are false.
In the past six months, there have been 126 shootings in New York, Philadelphia, Los Angeles and Chicago.
In these cases, 16 have used automatic weapons.
21 innocent deaths were caused, and it has received attention and condemnation from the entire United States.
The stock price of the automatic weapon manufacturer used in the case was greatly affected, with a decline of over 16.6%.
The loss exceeded 80 million US dollars, and the estimated loss will reach 120 million.
These include well-known weapons manufacturing companies in the United States such as Vesta, Altedu, and Springfield.
They all want to reach a new gun control bill with the government to reduce losses and reduce public attention to the case and crazy accusations against weapon manufacturers.
But the NRA chanted: Guns are the freedom of everyone. It is not weapons that kill, but people.
Then he launched his own lobbying team to carry out a frantic bombardment of Congress.
And bluntly threatened: "Whoever dares to support gun control is the enemy of NRA."
"The enemy will eventually be destroyed by our guns!"
That's right, NRA is so arrogant.
They even dared to go to the door and threaten the current MPs and judges directly, telling the other party that if they did not change their attention, they would have big trouble finding them.
Because it not only has money and guns!
There are more than 4 million loyal members behind it, and these members are also the most important source of income for the NRA.
80% of their lobbying funds, management and various expenditures are paid by membership dues.
Donations from the outside world and support from weapons companies are of little importance.
This also creates the independence of the NRA, they do not need to look at anyone's face.
All you need is to unite the members and the votes in their hands.
It is enough to maintain the independence and detachment of its organization, and its strong influence on politics.
In his previous life, Li Zitao remembered that Omar Hei had confronted the NRA.
Bypassing Congress to sign 21 gun control bills.
However, after its resignation, the NRA's powerful lobby team immediately persuaded Congress to abolish the Omarhei gun control bill.
The few that survived, without the support of the core bill, seem to be useless.
Omarhei shed tears in his speech...Although there was a performance element.
But even if he was slapped in the face by the NRA, Omarhey just complained a few words when facing the media, and there was no one against the NRA.
From this we can see how powerful the NRA was at that time.
Although today's NRA has not yet grown to a terrible scale that makes the president cry but helpless.
But it is already a political capital force that cannot be ignored in the United States.
"Actually, Charlie, I should tell you something first."
"what?"
Li Zitao suddenly saw a badger, "Ayden... there!"
Pointing to the badger under the tree trunk softly, Li Zitao walked forward, rubbing his hands and feet.
"Hush!"
Pearl made a silent motion to Jenny, and the two sisters also lowered their bodies, carefully approaching the prey ~EbookFREE.me~ Aiden, it is mine. "Seeing my brother raising his shotgun to aim, Pearl quickened his pace.
It's just that the strong crossbow in her hand slowed her speed.
"Okay! See who shoots more accurately."
Aiden waited for her to stand with herself before raising the gun again.
"Jenny!"
Jenny put her pocket pistol into the gun bag, knelt down on the ground quickly, holding the front end of the crossbow with both hands.
"Ready... let go."
Whoosh (bang)!
Two voices sounded at the same time, and the panicked American badger just raised his head.
The body was taken out by the powerful inertia of the crossbow arrow.
That cute face became bloody...
"Wohno!"
Pearl looked at the American badger corpse that was nailed to the trunk and swayed back and forth, and said with regret: "Ayden, you ruined a hat!"
The fur of the American badger is the top material for making fur, and Aiden’s gun destroyed its value.
"Hey, don't be so mean!" Aiden spat out.
During the long and boring journey, you finally have time to have some fun, please don’t be so disappointed?
Hearing the "friendly" exchange between the two, Li Zitao said to Jenny: "Jenny, go and bring the prey back."
The little girl ran to the big tree with the corpse hanging, not feeling scared at all!
When she was six years old, she already learned to hunt!
It was just that he was taken by his father at that time, watching him and other adults chasing prey.
Little Jenny also personally dissected the deer body...
She still feels sick to this day, but she doesn't resist!
"By the way, what did you just tell me, dear?"
Li Zitao looked at her with a smile, and said casually: "This reminds me of the days when I took Xiaoshi and Jin out to hunt."
