"UPDATE: 5/20/2014 Markass informs me that what I discovered in the diary above is presently not true (and appears to be suggesting it never was). I assure you that at the time 18 months or so ago, I did spend the time calling whom I said I did, and reported what I was told truthfully and fully. Their policies may have changed in the meantime, or I may have been misled or their left hand doesn't know what their right hand is doing (if they even have a 'left' hand, or just two right hands). Anyway, thank you Markass for checking. My info may be out of date."
"I Called the number like you claimed to do in this story expecting to prove to someone it was true, unfortunately it very much isn't true, the NRA Does allow Visitors with CCW Permits to Carry, and you should fix your story and actually call them yourself"

No -- because the point about the NRA *not* allowing concealed carry is still valid

Actually, according to this: "the NRA staff is armed, while visitors are disarmed"

Your claim about the NRA has been shown to be incorrect at least twice

You are free to decide that for yourself. You are *not* free to decide that for others
