NRA Issues ‘Major Response’ to Obama’s Inaugural Address: No Gov’t Can Ever Take Away Our ‘God-Given Freedoms’

Executive Vice President of the National Rifle Association Wayne LaPierre issued a scathing review of President Barack Obama’s inaugural address, saying the president expects Americans to accept his flawed interpretation of the U.S. Constitution and the Second Amendment.

“He wants you, all of you, and Americans across this country to accept the idea of principles as he sees fit,” LaPierre said. “It’s a way of redefining words so that common sense is turned upside down, and nobody knows the difference.”

“We as gun owners face that same kind of false ultimatum,” he added. “We are told that to stop insane killers, we must accept less freedom.”

That is not the solution, LaPierre explained. Nonetheless, Obama believes the only “principled way to make children safe is to make lawful citizens less safe” through gun control.

“Criminals couldn’t care less about Obama’s so-called principles, that’s why they are criminals,” LaPierre said to applause. “You all know that.”

Obama wants you to believe that putting the federal government right in the middle of every firearms transaction, except those between criminals, will somehow make the country safer, the NRA executive vice president lamented.

“He wants to keep all those names in a massive federal registry. There are only two reasons for such a registry of gun owners, that is to tax them or take them,” he added.
