Sorry Doug R, but it just that simple.
The father of the miscreant shooter of a son that he had raised
with the usual "conservative values" was not "just a member" ,but a prominant board member and not just anyone can ascend to the board of the arch-conservative N.R.A.

I find it odd that you don't see the obvious failure of "leading by example" principal.
First that the father "is" responsible for the sons they let loose on the rest of society and the proof will be who pays the lawyer fees ,whom pulls the political connections to get a favorable judge ,and whom can keep it out of the media coverage.
I doubt this 21 year old rich white trash can pull this out of the fire all on his own. Keene Sr. will want "his reputation" protected.

No way around it. This incident is a genuine black eye to the so-called "gun safety advocacy" that the NRA promotes.
Maybe it would make the news if someone shot the NRA's Eddie Eagle ;-)
