Title: This is the NRA, Come Join Us
1This is the NRA, Come Join Us
2The 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.
3However, there are many who want to severely
restrict or eliminate your gun rights. Their
two-pronged plan attacks both you and your gun
4To Combat Attacks on Your Rights, NRA is
5To 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.
6To 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.
7To 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.
8To 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.
9To Combat Attacks on Your Gun, NRA is
10To 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.
11To 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.
12To 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.
13The Strength of NRA
14The 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.
15The 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.
16The 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.
17The 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.
18The 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.
19The 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.
