The National Rifle Association has gained more than 100,000 new members in the past 18 days, the organization told POLITICO’s Playbook on Thursday.
The number of paid new members jumped from 4.1 million to 4.2 million during that time.
“Our goal is to get to 5 million before this debate is over,” the NRA told POLITICO’s Mike Allen.

Yet, Piers and his friends take the issue so seriously that they can talk and laugh on national television about shooting a critic with an assault rifle. What kind of message are they sending to America’s children?
Gun control advocates are apparently not really all that offended by violence. They celebrate it in Hollywood, and promote it in the gaming industry.
Let’s be honest. Isn’t it really more about control without dissent? Watch video below:
FRANKLIN COUNTY, Ga. – A Georgia man behind one of the top 10 YouTube channels has been found dead. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation is investigating the death of 32-year-old Keith Ratliff as a homicide.
Ratliff was mainly behind the scenes in the videos from FPSRussia, but he did occasionally appear in them talking about — and firing –a high powered gun. The video have been view more than 500 million times on YouTube.
Ratliff also worked for FPS Industries in Franklin County, a company that makes weapons and weapon technology. He was found dead inside the business from a gunshot wound to the head, according to GBI spokesperson John Bankhead.
Levi Fox, a neighbor of Ratliff’s, said he couldn’t believe that he had been shot to death.

As has been widely reported, the Obama Administration is contemplating massive new gun control measures.
And at least eight bills have been filed by liberal gun control advocates in Congress.
This has stimulated strong responses from pro-Second Amendment activists. For example, a Marine veteran wrote a letter that has gone viral in response to Senator Feinstein’s public statements against guns and then went head-to-head with a CNN anchor over the constitutional purpose for individual ownership of guns.
Even Alex Jones got into the act with his appearance on Piers Morgan several days ago. This followed Piers Morgan’s meltdown with Gun Owners of America President Larry Pratt the week before.
But if you really want ammunition in support of your right to bear arms, pass around the following video. It’s entertaining and is right on the mark:
The wife of a missing retired FBI agent is calling on the U.S. government to put more pressure on Iran to send her husband home, as she releases photos that she received two years ago of her husband as a hostage.
Robert Levinson, a private investigator, disappeared in 2007 on the Iranian island of Kish. The Iranian government has repeatedly denied knowing anything about his disappearance, and the disturbing video and photos that Levinson’s family received in late 2010 and early 2011 seemed to give credence to the idea.
U.S. officials now see the government of Iran behind the images and video, intelligence officials told The Associated Press, and Levinson’s wife, Christine Levinson, wants the world to know she hasn’t given up hope of seeing him again.
“I believe he is still alive,” she said in an interview Tuesday night with Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren. “I believe he is spending every waking hour making sure that he is well enough to come home to us.”
Their oldest daughter is getting married in a month, Levinson said. U.S. officials have told her they are doing everything they can, but investigators haven’t been able to find much information about him.

We reported last week on a letter written by Marine Combat Vet Joshua Boston to Senator Diane Feinstein in reaction to her threat to require nationwide registration of firearms. Here, he educates a CNN anchor on the Second Amendment:
