Under False Pretenses

A pro-gun-control assemblyman has taken the unusual step of joining the National Rifle Association for what he says is a way to gather intel on how best to fight the powerful organization. [More]
Yeah, well, according to the Bylaws, which paid staff and directors ought to be held to, just like politicians and bureaucrats are ostensibly held to Constitutional adherence, that disqualifies him for membership.

Association Bylaws, Article III, Sec. 11, "Involuntary Termination of Membership and Disciplinary Proceedings" states in part: "Any individual or organization member may be suspended or expelled for good cause, including, but not limited to, any conduct which is contrary to, or in violation of the Bylaws of the Association."

Mosley's public anti-gun advocacy is in direct conflict with Article II, Purposes and Objectives, section 1: "To protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, especially with reference to the inalienable right of the individual American citizen guaranteed by such Constitution to acquire, possess, collect, exhibit, transport, carry, transfer ownership of, and enjoy the right to use arms, in order that the people may always be in a position to exercise their legitimate individual rights of self-preservation and defense of family, person, and property, as well as to serve effectively in the appropriate militia for the common defense of the Republic and the individual liberty of its citizens;"

Additionally, Article III, "Membership," section 1., "Eligibility," requires that the member "subscribes to the objectives and purposes of the Association."

Boot his subversive @$$. And keep the "$35." Assuming this isn't all just an attention-seeking a lie, and sloppy "journalism" not to have noted the discrepancy between claim and reality, assuming this Lovett character isn't in on a scam.

Oh, for heaven’s sake, let him join, and waste his time barking up the wrong tree for a year or two. Any pro-rights activist who knows what’s what knows that the power doesn’t emanate out of Fairfax, it emanates out of the grassroots of America. Disrupting the American gun rights movement by Infiltrating the NRA is like disrupting America’s military defense capabilities by infiltrating the VFW.
