That may be one of the items they plan to mention on Friday.
“(NRA Caves?)”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Why did you add this “editorial comment” to the headline? Do you believe - word for word - this CBS report? Have you corroborated these “facts” with other news sources?
Or do you - like so many others - just go for the knee-jerk rection when the libeal media spins their agenda?
The NRA is our 500lb gorilla, let’s hope they come through on the right side.
For right-minded gun owners, it means BOHICA.
Without an AR-15 he could have done the same damage with two Civil War Henrys and several CW pistols.
Also the NRA could inject some perspective in the gun control argument. In a way, the NRA was the original civil rights movement. In the midst of the lyncings going on in the late 1800-early 1900’s the NRA was advocating helping poor Blacks obtain firearms and ammo to protect themselves from the White supremacist/kkk wing of the democrat party.

“Important Statement from the National Rifle Association
Posted on December 18, 2012
The National Rifle Association of America is made up of four million moms and dads, sons and daughters – and we were shocked, saddened and heartbroken by the news of the horrific and senseless murders in Newtown.
Out of respect for the families, and as a matter of common decency, we have given time for mourning, prayer and a full investigation of the facts before commenting.
The NRA is prepared to offer meaningful contributions to help make sure this never happens again.
The NRA is planning to hold a major news conference in the Washington, DC area on Friday, December 21.
Details will be released to the media at the appropriate time”
Dr. Suzanna Hupp Testimony to congress on the mass shooting that killed her parents in a gun free zone where she obeyed the law and left her gun in the car.

I suspect they will offer something, and maybe ask for the ability of some teachers to be armed. More than likely they will offer the AR platform to be banned (most of the older, moneyed donors don’t like them anyway).
Free firearm training for school teachers?
Assistance for school teachers to get CCW permits?
I can't think of anything else they could do.
I hope that they say:
1. “Assault weapons” were not used.
2. “huge clips” were certainly not a factor - he had all the time he needed to reload.
3. “laws to keep from mentally ill” would not have helped here.
4. “more checks needed” to purchase would have had no effect.
5. “training requirements” would have been useless.
All in all, I want to see them produce a very well supported white paper stating that we need to end “gun free zones” - that virtually all “mass killings” occur in those stupid spots. That if teachers and school workers were encouraged to carry, that is the best shot. Also, that they support posting guards, as is true in Israel.
Israelis are baffled that we don’t.

I agree with Huckabee and Kudlow that the true solution also involves turning back to God and somehow curbing violent video games, and mental health care discussions, but those ought to be outside the realm of the white paper of the NRA.
He KILLED his mom to get access to her guns.
You are so wrong !
But your pushing a hit piece from the Commie Broadcast service .
A certified Obama propaganda outlet .
Fox reported the NRA plans to push back with demand to
On gaming industry and mental health experts to be make Changes in there fields !
They are going after Hollywood aha obamawood too !
Excellent strategy !
How can anyone “make sure” this never happens again?
The guy was a violent nut job. If he hadn’t been able to get guns, he could’ve built a bomb. A bad guy is gonna do bad things if he really wants to; he’ll find a way.
My guess is that the right is finally waking up and is getting tired of being bludgeoned by the left....
Here is what I mean.... If you give the left enough rope they will hang themselves literally. (ban rope) We know the left has an agenda to remove all guns from society but the vast majority support the second ammendment, in won’t be long before the left revelling in victory will demand more and more controls at which point they will expose themselves similar to the healthcare reform debate and the country will get up in arms about it.

Gun controllers would say, yes there is a way to stop him from stealing it from his mom; by stealing it from his mom.
I just got a letter form the NRA asking for me to join them. It is sitting on my desk awaiting what they say Friday.
