NRA The National Rifle Association This is not a political party, rather it is a group of gun owners who want the freedoms they deserve. What we are: We are the National Rifle Association. An organization built around the safety, practice, and rights of all those who fall under its category. We are people who believe in the right to protect ourselves, our families, our freedoms, and our land. We are business men. farmers, low class laborers, and regular everyday people who believe in these rights. How can it be, that some of these political parties want to take away or limit this right. The right to bear arms. Our Ideals: It is a right that should be guaranteed for all individuals in our country. To own a gun.. Why should we let these politicians limit our ability to save ourselves. Or the ability to defend ourselves. Cops are unable to come at a moments notice and it will take time. That is when you must make a choice for yourself. Will you be the victim. Or will you be the savior. It is all your choice. Why should some corrupt political figure get a bunch of armed guards to secure their safety while we could potentially walk around at the mercy of what ever thug is waiting around a corner. Our Purpose: We are not a political party. But we are based around politics. The politics of defense of a person or family. We support what ever political figure supports us. We are here to fight for our right to protect ourselves and that's that. Cops are ineffective and get there when they get there. However when you're standing on a road and there are gun shots and no cops, shouldn't you be the person to uphold the law? We fight for the right to bear arms and believe every should be able to own one if they are able to. But we do believe some should and some shouldn't Our beliefs in law: We understand that some people should not own firearms. But shouldn't the law abiding citizen be able to own one? If you've done nothing wrong, why should you not be able to fight for your life. It's your life. Not the Governors, not the Cops, not the man standing next to you. But in the end you should always help others. But your life should come first. That is why you should be able to own guns. But in the idea of criminals. What if a criminal has become good. Shouldn't they get something within reason. They should own the bare minimum. Maybe a pistol with a certain amount of ammunition but not a rifle. They should be limited. But an ex-convict is and ex-convict. They should have the right to bare the bare minimum of arms in order for their safety and protection. They should be limited but protected. End Statement: All in all, we know that this is our land that we should be able to defend. We know that we have families and friends that need help. And in the end. Death is Permanent. Extra statement: This is a political situation and this is why it is on the politics forums section. Any and all political figures are more than welcomed to join in. What are you beliefs and what do you think? Feel free to respond. Death is permanent in the idea that people die and its never the same. It's more on the idea of loosing rather than permanently dying.
