Royce Gracie's family may hail from Brazil, but few better examples of NRA Families can be found! Royce (pronounced "hoyce") and his family essentially created the martial art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, with Royce himself becoming one of the ultimate fighters of the Ultimate Fighting Championship. Although the Gracies found fame and fortune by teaching unarmed hand-to-hand combat, nobody knows better that martial arts have their limitations. Criminals don't wait for the bell, nor do they heed the ref! As immigrants to America, the Gracies have embraced everything that makes us great ... especially the Second Amendment and your NRA.

"The best way to describe NRA is NRA is the front line of resistance," said Gracie. "They're educators. They're here to educate the people from young age to adults, men, women, doesn't matter the age, about how to use a gun, how to, to be aware of the dangers of the gun, to be aware of what the gun can do and how to treat the gun and how to to teach about guns. NRA is the front line of resistance against the government trying to take our Second Amendment rights away."
