“self defense”

The National Rifle Association welcomes the Supreme Court’s decision in NYSRPA v. Bruen. The Court affirmed that the right to bear arms does not stop at a person’s front door. This is the most significant Second Amendment ruling in more than a decade. 

We inherited a great freedom thanks to the sacrifices of generations of Americans who came before us. And we are charged with continuing that great legacy handed down to us.

With Marion Hammer at the helm, Florida became the launching pad for many pro-gun and pro self-defense legislative initiatives over the years.

Not content with his stated plans to ban America’s favorite rifle, President Biden has again set his sights on banning the most-common handguns used for home defense, self-defense, concealed carry and competition.

There is a clear truth about armed self-defense and those same anti-gunners don't want it to be known. Watch David Kopel talk about that in the latest Shooting Straight interview with America's 1st Freedom Editor in Chief Frank Miniter.

Instead of backing sensible solutions both major political parties should be able to support, President Biden choose a partisan political approach.

Self-defense is a natural right and constitutional carry is spreading. Despite what the Biden administration argues, armed citizens are not the problem. The statistics back this up.

The text of the Second Amendment is explicit, and since it is a right, the people, not the government, decide. Yet, gun-control activists are still intent on attempting to define exactly what "arms" are protected by it.

In Ukraine, a vivid and inspirational example of the need for the right to keep and bear arms could not be more apparent.
