Our SRA membership has surged since the election. Definitely more socialist understanding why they would want to be armed.

I donated $2k to the SRA and volunteered to train locals at the nearby range, but zero people are involved, so all I can do now is join the finger waggling and sign waving until more democrats stop voting for laws restricting gun ownership, meanwhile republican states can have ammo delivered to their front doors. We have no hope of fighting fascism when democrats are so fucking weak and scared

What state are you in? Washington SRA is my only experience.

Sorry, I'm not willing to divulge any personal info anymore on the internet. Pretend I live in a Democrat dominant state and am surrounded by people who are ignorant about firearms

Ha no worries. But that basically sounds like Washington state. But I guess maybe we have a lot more "outdoor" people here and maybe that makes people more likely to not view firearms so negatively.
