USA-head of the powerful gun lobby resigns
The director of the National Rifle Association (NRA), Wayne La Pierre, has announced his resignation which will become effective on January 31st.
The 74-year-old has led the powerful US gun lobby since 1991. His resignation is not part of an agreement with the prosecutor's office. The NRA said La Pierre has decided to step down due to health issues and will be replaced by Andrew Arulanandam, its longtime spokesman, as the NRA's interim CEO. The NRA which has existed since 1871 has become increasingly powerful and influential in American politics and particularly the Republican Party, favoring or blocking welcome or unwelcome gun control laws. This influence was made possible by its ability to financially support politicians' expensive election campaigns.
Due to the spread of various violence in America, ordinary women in this country... they turned to purchasing guns to protect themselves and become gun owners. According to the CNN agency; The South China Morning Post television channel, in a report titled "The Countercultural Spread of Gun Violence in America and Its Consequences," announced: One of the problems arising from this problem is the tendency of groups in society, including including ordinary women, towards businesses and centres. The rally is based on the sale of weapons, which essentially should not enter this field. In the past, gun owners in America were usually rural white men with conservative political views. But in the last decade, the number of women who own guns in America has more than doubled to 25 percent.
