New Republic Blames NRA for Deaths of Assassinated NYPD Officers
American Spectator ^ | December 23, 2014 | Aaron Goldstein

Yesterday, I critiqued an article in The New Republic by Claire Groden which argued the anti-police protesters weren't to blame for the murders of two NYPD officers last weekend and that the responsibility was that of the gunman alone.

Today, The New Republic is singing a different tune. According to an article written by Rebecca Leber, it's the NRA's fault that the two officers are dead:

You probably realize that you Freepers are just as guilty of killing the two cops as the NRA ...

Gosh, if only there were stringent gun laws in New York and Maryland, things like banning carrying of handguns, forbidding criminals from having weapons... OH, right, all those laws exist, yet criminals still...you know, ignore them?

Much more politic to blame the NRA rather than the racist leaders who are marching in the streets.

I didn't think that The New Republic had any staff left to be able to put something like this together.

The NRA made a black Muslim, that attended a Mike Brown/Kill the “pigs” rally, go and shoot two police officers in their car?

Yeah, ok.

However, facts show that it was a gun wielding murdering thug who was already barred by law as a multiple felon from owning or carrying a gun concealed or not. Pass some more laws that cop killers will ignore? The ignorance of liberals appears to be without limit.

Oh yes, but the chanting for dead cops had nothing to do with it?

Evil inanimate objects conspiring against people.
