Paid Mouthpieces For The NRA: Not Real Activists Teaser

Published on February 12, 2018
Duration: 20:12

This video critically examines the National Rifle Association's (NRA) effectiveness and internal structure, arguing that the organization has become a "pyramid scheme" and a "mafia type thing." Speakers contend that the NRA's board is largely a figurehead, with real power concentrated in the hands of executives like Wayne LaPierre. They advocate for grassroots activism, direct communication with elected officials, and potentially boycotting manufacturers that support the NRA as means to influence firearms policy and protect Second Amendment rights.
