Wayne LaPierre: “Disarmament”

The NRA has released a new spot in its “Freedom’s Safest Place” campaign. Featuring NRA Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre, the video states that the greatest damage the terrorists could ever inflict upon us is disarmament at the hands of the political elites.

“What kind of government cares more about appeasing Islamic terrorists than defending the constitutional rights of its citizens,” LaPierre asks. “A government that would disarm us during the age of terror.”

He argues that nothing would make us more vulnerable to generations of suffering and slaughter than the destruction of the Second Amendment. And yet many of our very own politicians and a relentless media are launching that attack themselves.

LaPierre says what they fear most is what we most value—our freedom. And he promises that the NRA and its members will never surrender our right to survive. Watch “Disarmament” here.

Standing Guard | The NRA Gathers to Celebrate Our Freedom

The momentum we’re seeing across the country is both encouraging and energizing. January opened with tremendous activity at the NRA booth during SHOT Show, where members, industry partners and supporters stopped by to connect, share ideas and reaffirm their commitment to freedom and the Second Amendment.

Port Authority Doubles Down on Constitution-Free Zone with High-Profile Arrest

As anyone who has passed a basic civics class knows, the U.S. Constitution is the supreme law of the land. All legislation and official government actions are subject to its limits.
