YouTube Description

NRA Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre wasn't always a gun enthusiast. In fact, when LaPierre first joined the NRA in 1978, he was more comfortable on K Street than in a duck blind. “The safest place you could be with Wayne and a gun back then was in a different state, because he really did not know anything about guns,” former NRA spokesman John Aquilino tells FRONTLINE. “Politics, yes; guns, no.”
