NRA News Commentator and Veteran U.S. Navy SEAL Dom Raso spent 12 years hunting down terrorists. Now he has a message for every American: “We need leaders who will get rid of useless gun-free zone laws that give killers a clear advantage over the law-abiding.”

In his newly released video commentary, “The Threat Of Lone Wolf Attacks,” Raso asserts that those who are more concerned with offending our enemies than stopping them are making themselves and other Americans “sheep” and easy targets for radical Islamic terrorists and the lone wolves they inspire. “Rather than addressing this obvious threat with simple, clear solutions … the liberal media, PC politicians and Hollywood know-it-alls attack people like me.”“That problem is on the president’s desk every single day; and our failure to respond to that problem proves how weak we’ve become.” — Dom Raso, NRA News commentator

To underscore his message that we cannot trust our politicians or the media to tell the truth, Raso points to Benghazi: “Only in Washington is it possible for anyone to believe that hundreds of people decided to grab AK-47s and mortars, and started attacking the American consulate in Benghazi because of a stupid video.” 

Raso is adamant that allowing Americans to become radicalized, to embrace violent ideologies such as that propounded by ISIS, is one of the greatest risks that we face. “That problem is on the president’s desk every single day; and our failure to respond to that problem proves how weak we’ve become.”

For Raso’s complete analysis of the threat posed by lone wolf terrorism—and what we can do about it—watch his video.

Cynical Strategies To Subvert The Protection Of Lawful Commerce In Arms Act

Since President George W. Bush signed the bipartisan Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA) into law on Oct. 26, 2005, those bent on civilian disarmament have sought to bypass the legislation’s clear commands. In fact, 20 years later, gunmakers were fending off a frivolous nuisance suit from the city of Gary, Ind., filed in 1999, despite the PLCAA and state-analogue legislation.

President’s Column | NRA Focus On The Vision

I can’t believe it’s been seven months since I was elected NRA president, and I’m already composing my eighth President’s Column. The officers never fully anticipated or appreciated the immense challenges we faced when elected.

Standing Guard | The NRA is Strong

The strength of the NRA is, and has always been, our membership. Without our millions of members, we would not be able to effectively rally behind elections for pro-freedom politicians; just as importantly, if not for our large membership, our representatives in office would not feel the same urgency to listen to us in this constitutional republic.
