NRA members are in city hall, Fort Carson, NORAD, the Air Force Academy and the Olympic Training Center. And yes, NRA members are surely among the police and fire and SWAT team heroes who risked their lives to rescue the students at Columbine. "Don't come here"? We're already here. This community is our home. Every community in America is our home.

NRA annual meeting opening remarks, Denver, Colorado, 1999-05-01
--
Mayor Webb asked the NRA not to hold this meeting, which fell shortly after the Columbine High School massacre on 1999-04-20.
--
In Bowling for Columbine, 2002 , this speech is edited to "Good Morning... Thank you all for coming, and thank you for supporting your organization. I also want to applaud your courage in coming here today... I have a message from the Mayor, Mr. Wellington Webb, the Mayor of Denver. He sent me this, and said "Don't come here. We don't want you here." I said to the mayor... This is our country, as Americans we're free to travel wherever we want in our broad land... "Don't come here"? We're already here."Charlton Heston
