In Stephen King's book "Guns," he critiques the leadership of the NRA, specifically targeting Wayne LaPierre and the board of directors. King expresses a desire for these individuals to experience the gruesome realities of gun violence firsthand. He envisions them being immersed in the aftermath of a tragic shooting, forced to confront the horrific consequences of their advocacy for unrestricted gun rights.

King's vivid depiction underscores the devastating impact of gun-related incidents, emphasizing the tragedy of innocent lives lost. By juxtaposing the NRA's stance with the gruesome scenes of violence, he challenges the narratives that often prioritize gun rights over the urgent need for reform and accountability in the face of ongoing tragedies.
