If you are still wondering why Wayne LaPierre – the Executive Vice President of the NRA – is so anti gun regulation and you simply cannot figure out what his issues are, well let me help. Wayne LaPierre is not looking out for your best interest, he is looking out for the best interest of the gun industry and any sensible regulation will impede on the industry’s bottom line – Profits!
You still don’t get it, huh? You think I’m just making this up? Well let me step aside and allow Mr. LaPierre himself explain his true motive against any form of regulations.
In a rambling op ed on The Daily Caller, LaPierre points out the many situations where more guns is, in his view, apparent.
- Latin American drug gangs have invaded every city of significant size in the United States. Phoenix is already one of the kidnapping capitals of the world, and though the states on the U.S./Mexico border may be the first places in the nation to suffer from cartel violence, by no means are they the last.
- After Hurricane Sandy, we saw the hellish world that the gun prohibitionists see as their utopia. Looters ran wild in south Brooklyn. There was no food, water or electricity. And if you wanted to walk several miles to get supplies, you better get back before dark, or you might not get home at all.
- Nobody knows if or when the fiscal collapse will come, but if the country is broke, there likely won’t be enough money to pay for police protection. And the American people know it.
- Ominously, the border also remains open to agents of al Qaeda and other terrorist organizations. Numerous intelligence sources have confirmed that foreign terrorists have identified the southern U.S. border as their path of entry into the country.When the next terrorist attack comes, the Obama administration won’t accept responsibility. Instead, it will do what it does every time: blame a scapegoat and count on Obama’s “mainstream” media enablers to go along.
He concludes with this bit of information – the real reason for his very existence!
We will not surrender. We will not appease. We will buy more guns than ever. We will use them for sport and lawful self-defense more than ever. We will grow the NRA more than ever. And we will be prouder than ever to be freedom-loving NRA patriots. And with your help, we will ensure that the Second Amendment remains America’s First Freedom.
