- He is a right-wing Republican.
- In 2018, following the Stoneman Douglas High School shooting which led to the unprecedented "March for Our Lives" demonstration in Washington D.C., LaPierre addressed the Conservative Political Action Conference and warned that the problem was not widespread and easy access to assault rifles but European socialism.
- The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun.
- Socialism is a movement that loves a smear.
- If these so-called new European socialists take over the House and the Senate, and God forbid they get the White House again, our American freedoms could be lost and our country will be changed forever - and the first to go will be the Second Amendment.
- [on gun control advocates] What they want are more restrictions on the law-abiding. Think about that - their solution is to make you, all of you, less free.
