Speaking to all 3,000 of the assembled "progressive activists" at this year's Netroots Nation conference, National Education Association vice president Lily Eskelsen Garcia boldly declared a "prophecy" about the eternal destiny of NRA and Second Amendment supporters, and of politicians and lobbyists working to promote gun rights: "I'm not an ordained minister; I'm not a theologian, but these guys are going to hell."
Wow. Going to hell for supporting the Second Amendment? That type of radical thinking might explain the very high incidence of ridiculous cases involving over-zealous school officials misinterpreting and wrongly enforcing "zero-tolerance" rules--and doing so without exercising even the smallest measure of sound judgment, discretion or basic common sense.
According to a Mercury News article, the high-ranking NEA officer went on to say, "We have to make those senators as frightened of us as they are of the gun lobby. Shame on us if we give one inch to the gun lobby. They got where they are because they never give up. ... Now the movement is us; we are the ones we were waiting for."
As we note on a near-weekly basis, all of us agree that we want our children to be safe at school, and that reasonable safety measures should be followed. But, when pressed, gun-control proponents and even President Obama's own administration will admit that the restrictions they are pushing won't make schools and students any safer.
Do they really think that criminals and madmen will now suddenly and willingly comply with "universal" background checks and modern sporting rifle bans, or that a magazine capacity limit would have stopped Adam Lanza? No, they don't. No "educated" person could.
Too late. I’m already in Hell. It’s called obama’s 2nd term.
NEA Vice President: NRA, Second Amendment Supporters “Are Going to Hell”
God will make this decision not some moonbat loon.
I didn’t know the NEA was a religious organization.
supporters of the Second Amendment made it possible for this d-less wonder to make a fool of himself in public
who will defend this clueless wonder, people like him have no aptitude for it
and then it starts all over again, with empty heads trashing those who paid the price
“Now the movement is us,we are the ones we were waiting for.”
Yep,you’re the ones WE are waiting for all right.But not in the way you mean lady.
They’re not, just parading as one....like Islam.
I bet this scumbag supports abortion.
Yeah: Mothers won’t go to hgell for murdering their babies, but I will for supporting the 2nd. Amendment. This idiot teaches school?
No wonder Education in America is so Phugged up.
bttt
They are. They worship a different god.
Mrs. Goose meet Mr. Gander!
>>”I’m not an ordained minister; I’m not a theologian, but these guys are going to hell.”
Because God-hating Leftists are guarding the gates of Heaven these days??
If The NEA, WBC, and all these other liberals who gave us Detriot, Chicago, etc. are going to heaven, hell suddenly seems like a nice place.
Once again a so-called educator proving he/she/it does not know what she/he/it is talking about. The NEA is a joke.
Wasn’t their a thread on FR earlier this week about something else the NEA did at their national conference?
Sounds like they should be banned from schools............Just saying :)
maybe...
but we won’t be the first to arrive
