NRA? National Rifle Association.

Perhaps she is confusing it with the New Zealand Rifle Association?

Gun Laws in New Zealand

Nearly 250,000 [1] licensed firearms owners own and use New Zealand’s estimated 1.5 million [1] firearms.[2] As in Australia, but unlike the US and Canada, gun laws usually gain the support of both major parties before they are passed. Guns are not currently a major political issue, but have been restricted immediately after the Aramoana massacre in 1990, the Scottish Dunblane and Australian Port Arthur massacres in 1996.

Gun licences are issued at the discretion of the police in New Zealand provided the police consider the person to be of good standing[citation needed] and without criminal, psychiatric or drug issues as well as meeting other conditions such as having suitable storage facilities. They must be issued for a valid reason[citation needed]. Several different categories of licenses are permitted, with the lowest one permitting access to restricted semi-automatic rifles and shotguns, with limited capacity, while the higher levels which permit fully automatic weaponry and pistols are rarely issued to civilians.

Various governments[vague], groups[vague] behind the Thorp reports[citation needed], and the New Zealand Police[3] have pushed for various forms of universal firearm registration. This has currently not succeeded but current maneuverings[needs update] by the New Zealand Police are attempting to reclassify large numbers of ‘A’ category firearms as ‘E’ category (military-style semi-automatics), which requires them to be registered[speculation?]. This has been done though even by their own admission[4] the New Zealand Police cannot reliably register the current military-style semi-automatic (MSSA) firearms.

In March 2009 the New Zealand police bid to reclassify certain types of civilian semi-automatic firearms was overturned by the New Zealand High Court as a result of a legal challenge mounted by the New Zealand National Shooters Association (NSA) president Richard Lincoln.[citation needed]

I’d expect the Founding Fathers were pretty much in favor of thoughts and prayers, but I think they realized in those cases in which more might be needed it would be nice to have a Second Amendment.

We should thank them.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez does not seem to understand this happened in New Zealand that has very strict gun laws.

The NRA does not exist in New Zealand.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez = Certified Dumb@ss

God allows wicked people to do bad things that hurt and kill others (free will).

God even allows some idiots to speak out loud with idiotic suggestions that will harm others and not solve problems.

How many National Rifle Association chapters are there in New Zealand? What a stupid loudmouth Ocasio-Cortez is.

Ocasio-Cortez noted that “thoughts and prayers” is a reference to the NRA phrase she says is “used to deflect conversation away from policy change during tragedies.”

Sounds exactly what an atheist would think.

AOC has something to say about everything.

She is eventually going to test the limits of the saying, “There is no such thing as bad publicity.”

“What good are your thoughts & prayers when they don’t even keep the pews safe?”

Do mosques have pews?

That's too bad.

A good Democrat, she’s learning that you can’t let a shooting go to waste. It’s a prime opportunity to go after the NRA and the 2nd amendment.

She probably believes New Zealand is a part of northern Texas.

Hey AOC how many innocent American babies will be butchered in abortion clinics this week? I doubt they will receive her “thoughts and prayers”!

But no one would dare ask the Muslim victims “what good are your thoughts and prayers”? Pfftt... you know what this means, of course... another donation to the NRA.

NRA<>New Zealand

Just that attempted inference says a lot about where it's coming from. You can't fix stupid but she's just the robot. This isn't her original thought. She's a vacant, vapid mouthpiece made in the mold of Hussein Obama.

Can anyone remember a prior attack like this? I remember Muslims murders going back to the first World Trade Center bombing in ‘93, IIRC. Daniel Pearl, burning Christians in cages, etc. over the last 30 years or so but is there a prior “revenge” attack or is this the first?

For someone who, not only doesn’t BELIEVE in God, but also HATES the thought of God, NO, thoughts and prayers do not serve any purpose.

But that’s just you, Toothy.
