Re: GOA asking for more calls/emails NOW to keep 2A pressure on Trump
The appeals for donations don’t bother me one bit, GOA is a good organization and like you said they need money to fight a political war in a town dominated by big money interests. It would be insane for gun owners who claim to care deeply about their rights to expect an organization can do the fighting for you all funded from someone else’s pocket.

Re: GOA asking for more calls/emails NOW to keep 2A pressure on Trump
This. If you don't have the money to spare, then don't donate. But every time you get annoyed with a donation request and delete the email could be a time when you are actually taking action. Redirect that frustration into something productive, like reminding our Senators and Representatives (and our President) that they serve the people and that they swore an oath to protect and defend the Constitution and the Bill of Rights and that you expect them to vote PRO-GUN. Their willingness to infringe on our fundamental rights is the reason why orgs like GOA need to exist and solicit money in the first place.
Be thankful that GOA (and other orgs) are around and doing the bulk of the day-to-day organizing work, research, and keeping us informed about what's going on.
Fundamentally, as Berncly said, GOA is a grass roots organization. That means as much as we rely on them to defend our rights, they need US to make the calls, send the emails, write the letters, and VISIT our Senators and Representatives.
Right now it's all hands on deck. If you value your rights, it's time to get active.I am not a lawyer.
