At the 152nd NRA Annual Meetings, regular NRA members volunteered to have their faces and their stories put proudly on display on banners throughout Indianapolis. "I am freedom," they proudly proclaimed. They were backed up by the words of NRA Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre, who has spent the last 45 years fighting for the Second Amendment that protects all our freedom, speaking boldly, loudly and proclaiming what freedom is, what it means … and what it costs.

In this video, LaPierre speaks for freedom and what it will take to protect it. He takes gun-banning politicians to task for ignoring or belittling it. "I am freedom, it live in all of us," he said, and with your help, "We will win!"
