LA PIRRE: WAXING IRONIC AND SHOOTING BLANKS

Ironic morning...following the national moment of silence for the victims of Sandy Hook with many moments of stupidity by NRA czar La Pierre....whose vision is of creating school prisons with armed guards at every entrance...armed guards patrolling every hallway and classroom....
Typical rhetoric...blame the media, video games, Hollywood and the mentally ill and skirt the real issue at hand....not that we should have the right to bare arms, but should we have unfettered rights to bare assault weapons and automatic weapons with clips of 10,20,30 rounds....is there a need for possessing the ability to spray 20 bullets automatically in less than 5 seconds?
Should we continue with loose gun purchasing laws at gun shows and shouldn't we look at private gun sales which put serious weapons in the wrong hands?
At least now that the NRA has come out and spoken, maybe conservatives will come out from hiding and address the issue. Make no mistake, just as Norquist is/was their spokesman on taxes, La Pierre is their spokesman on guns.
And that's the world....the "World According to Kimba." Thanks for reading.
