Coward Wayne LaPierre Resigns Just Days Before Corruption Trial Begins

Wayne LaPierre will leave the spotlight as he entered it—a coward. LaPierre resigned as leader of the National Rifle Association on Friday after spending over thirty years at the helm of the unwavering and unempathetic gun group that is steeped in corruption. Of course, LaPierre is doing this just days before his civil trial in New York. LaPierre was never known for being a brave man.

"On behalf of the NRA Board of Directors, I thank Wayne LaPierre for his service. Wayne has done as much to protect Second Amendment freedom as anyone,"
NRA President Charles Cotton said according to the press release. "Wayne is a towering figure in the fight for constitutional freedom, but one of his other talents is equally important: he built an organization that is bigger than him. Under the direction of Andrew Arulanandam, the NRA will continue to thrive – with a renewed energy in our business operations and grassroots advocacy. Our future is bright and secure."

LaPierre will still have to answer for illegally diverting tens of millions of dollars and spending organization funds on lavish personal trips and other questionable expenditures.
