- W4248519343 abstract "Beginning in the 1970s, the NRA began transforming defense of the Second Amendment into quasi-religious obligation but how this transformation occurred has only recently begun to be understood. This paper contributes to the understanding of how the NRA influenced the transformation of the cultural meaning of the Second Amendment by linking historical American narratives about masculine sacrifice to antigovernment new warrior culture following Vietnam, filling them with Christian nationalist language that rejects government authority to limit the Second Amendment. Using the NRA’s most mainstream and longest running magazine the American Rifleman, I demonstrate how the transformation of the cultural meaning of sacrifice underlies the transformation of meaning of the Second Amendment. This paper explores how the meaning of “sacrifice” in America’s gun culture transformed, alongside what it means to “be a Christian” as well as a “good citizen”. I demonstrate how the anti-government New Warrior culture has merged with Christian nationalist rhetoric to move the Second Amendment beyond the rule of law. Finally, I demonstrate how recently-ousted NRA president and retired Marine Corps LTC Oliver North symbolically embodies the New Christian anti-government Warrior." @default.
