In 1995 George H.W. Bush resigned his lifetime membership in the National Rifle Association over the group's reference to federal agents as a collection of "jackbooted government thugs." In a May 3, 1995 letter to the NRA's president, the former president protested the comments made by Wayne LaPierre in a NRA mass-mailing to its membership.
