This is the NRA, Come Join Us
2
The primary purpose of the NRA is to protect and
defend the Constitution of the United States,
with a primary focus on the Second Amendment of
the Bill of Rights, which guarantees your
individual right to keep and bear arms.
3
However, there are many who want to severely
restrict or eliminate your gun rights. Their
two-pronged plan attacks both you and your gun
4
To Combat Attacks on Your Rights, NRA is
5
To Combat Attacks on Your Rights, NRA is
  • Fighting gun registration and licensing schemes
    as ineffective against crime, an invasion of
    privacy and a precursor to confiscationwhat
    happened in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina.

6
To Combat Attacks on Your Rights, NRA is
  • Protecting private gun sales by exposing the gun
    show loophole fallacy. Imagine not being
    allowed to legally pass your guns down to your
    son or sell one to your friend.

7
To Combat Attacks on Your Rights, NRA is
  • Protecting our individual right to own a gun
    against the growing influence of the U.N. and
    its efforts to pass global treaties that would
    disarm individual citizens everywhere in the
    world, including the United States.

8
To Combat Attacks on Your Rights, NRA is
  • Fighting reimposition of the Assault Weapons
    Ban as well as expanded legislation that would
    ban semi-automatic shotguns, detachable magazine
    semi-automatic rifles and pump-action shotguns
    and rifles.

9
To Combat Attacks on Your Gun, NRA is
10
To Combat Attacks on Your Gun, NRA is
  • Proud to have won passage of the protection of
    Lawful Commerce in Arms Act to protect gunmakers
    from reckless (and taxpayer funded) lawsuits
    designed to hold manufacturers and dealers liable
    for the criminal acts of third parties who are
    totally beyond their control.

11
To Combat Attacks on Your Gun, NRA is
  • Working against new schemes such as Ballistic
    Fingerprinting, which requires markings on
    bullets and cartridge cases to be entered into a
    national database. Microstamping laws would
    require cartridge cases be marked with serial
    numbers and registered to the purchaser. Both
    systems are extremely costly for manufacturers
    and have already proven unreliable.

12
To Combat Attacks on Your Gun, NRA is
  • NRA is working against so-called Smart Gun
    technology which would require guns to have
    expensive, unreliable features, such as grips
    that read your fingerprints before the gun will
    fire.

13
The Strength of NRA
14
The Strength of the NRA
  • Putting an end to the claim that the Second
    Amendment only protects a states right to
    maintain a militia, in 2008 the Supreme court
    ruled 5-4 in District of Columbia v. Heller that
    the Second Amendment is an individually-held
    right to keep and bear arms.

15
The Strength of the NRA
  • Do you believe you have the right to defend
    yourself, your family and your home? Amazingly,
    many states dont, so NRA is pursuing passage of
    the Castle Doctrine legislation. This law
    establishes your right to use appropriate force
    to protect yourself and those you love.

16
The Strength of the NRA
  • NRA has played a key role in the passage of Right
    to carry laws in dozens of states and continues
    to push for more. By the way, the 40 Right to
    Carry states have a 26 lower violent crime rate.

17
The Strength of the NRA
  • The NRA has successfully promoted firearm
    preemption laws in 43 states. These laws prevent
    local jurisdictions from imposing more
    restrictive ordinances than the laws of the state.

18
The Strength of the NRA
  • Youve heard of employees being fired for having
    a gun in their locked vehicle. Now NRA is
    supporting legislation at the state level to
    prevent employers from restricting employees
    self-defense and firearm rights with respect to
    guns in parked vehicles.

19
The Strength of the NRA
  • Population growth has moved new groups of
    citizens closer to existing shooting ranges,
    resulting in hundreds of lawsuits and complaints
    by the newcomers against the established ranges.
    NRA has been promoting Range Protection Laws at
    the state level and has been successful in 46
    states.
