Now is a story we -- a lot of attention to the demand for guns it really -- -- since president Obama's reelection it was already a very strong market went even stronger.
When he got a second -- And in fact.
Gone that what was it that application background check background checks -- -- on Black Friday total.
154873.
That was background checks.
From prospective buyers that's up 20%.
Of the last -- radical.
Let's bring it cuddle all of the north who joins us now is the author of the new book heroes.
True that he is the chairman of the NRA's military and veterans affairs committee welcome -- always good to have you brought up.
Good to be with you -- by the way those costs -- shares have gone up so well because they're selling so many of but anyway -- here's the -- -- -- segment at age 25.
Of what you just talked about and I quote.
Both men were members of the National Rifle Association until the organization was banned.
As an illegal extremist entity.
For advocating that American citizens violate the United Nations treaties on small arms and arms straight now.
That's in this book because.
That's what people are afraid of yeah they're afraid of a ban on so called assault weapons that simply are.
Semi automatic firearms that look a certain way something Clinton tried and then had to go back on.
And they're afraid that they're gonna have a secretary of state like Susan Rice who is going to have the United States sign on to those United Nations -- -- That would affect the Second Amendment to our constitution I -- that's why those gun sales are up.
You've got it what surprises me is how much that -- A 10454000.
Background checks in one day.
And some of those background checks could come up multiple purchases you may have been you may be looking at a 10780000.
-- sold on that one -- Not scuttle back is astonishing -- anything like that before.
Well.
And in large part because we've never seen administration like this forum is Stuart.
This is an administration that is consistently lied to the American people about some very important things the most recent of which is spend guys.
We've seen them to seek fully described a terrorist attack.
At Fort Hood Texas as workplace violence why we surprised they've.
-- the talking points we have a DNI a Director of National Intelligence who's under investigation now for having.
Tailored the intelligence to meet and administration's line on whether al-Qaeda is still a threat and all of those kinds of things again -- back to this book.
All of that's in -- one of the reasons why it's selling so well.
Not to scare the American people but to bring them up to speed on what's really happening in a crowd that's allowed things like.
The so called fast and furious operation to go along.
And then cover up with the executive privilege -- this is a scary administration can you give me twenty seconds.
On -- qualifies as an assault weapon.
Which this administration would like to -- because a lot of people don't know that from the future and saw my frankly I don't know what does not bothered us.
-- they're gonna look at a weapon that has a pistol grip on it and magazine and holds more than a few rounds and has perhaps a flash suppressor are on the end of it.
They're gonna call that an assault -- and even though it's some automatic weapons is like my 22.
Or like the automatic shotgun that I'm given to one of my grandsons.
At Christmas this year I'm one of those folks -- applied for one of those.
Permits the -- what we don't want to have is a requirement to register those firearms that's what's got people buying so many of them right now.
-- that's important -- station.
That the required to register now is that just these so called assault weapons that they must be registered as assault weapons or they banned completely which is well.
Under the United Nations agreements.
These both these treaties the United Nations would have us take every single weapon and put them in a registry that would allow the government with some time.
Come and collect them all if the United Nations found that we were somehow in violation.
Of those agreements and that is clearly.
Contrary to the Second Amendment of the constitution to which the NRA and I'm proud member lifetime member in the chairman of their board of directors and chairman of their directors.
Committee and veterans affairs and military operations I look at that as -- true intrusion.
On our Second Amendment scuttle the just about five seconds what was the name of the book again.
For the thought to have.
It's a gun -- -- that -- look at Kurdistan in New York you get your own personal copy could have euros proved everybody else by the way can go to Oliver North dot com.
-- it was gonna get there cannot be time for Christmas address it you'll -- I'm about five about cuddle not get off at.
