About Armed & Secure.org

Armed & Secure is a project of the American Liberty Foundation, a tax-exempt educational institution based in Alexandria, Virginia. We're dedicated to delivering 21st Century Outreach Demonstrating Freedom Works.

That phrase — 21st Century Outreach Demonstrating Freedom Works — is more than a empty slogan; it's a statement of exactly how we defend your freedom.

  • We're focused on 21st Century communication tools — TV, radio, the Internet, VHS tapes, CDs, and cassettes. These tools are far more cost-effective than print or word-of-mouth.

    TV ads cost us less than 2 cents per television set reached — one page of a book or brochure costs 10 or 20 times as much! And TV and radio ads are dynamic yet subtle — people choose the TV shows they watch and the radio stations they listen to, but not the commercials they see and hear.

  • We're focused on outreach — we have no interest in "preaching to the choir." If you have a burning desire to swell the ranks of Americans who are excited about the Second Amendment — and who desperately want to blunt the fervor of the gun controllers — we're the answer to your prayers.

  • We're focused on "demonstrating freedom works," by highlighting the tangible benefits of individual liberty, personal responsibility, and constitutionally limited government. Example: Want to be safe from rapists, murderers, burglars, and child molesters? According to scholars like John Lott, gun ownership makes neighborhoods far safer than gun control does.

Armed & Secure is a unique approach to securing your Right to Keep and Bear Arms. Our approach not only complements the work of other organizations, it extends it by popularizing the scholarly research that supports our values.
