WASHINGTON — One day after 14 people were slain in a mass shooting in San Bernardino, Calif., Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid on Thursday blamed lawmakers for not acting on an "epidemic of gun violence" and described the National Rife Association as the Republican Party's "quasi-militant wing."

"Republicans must decide if they are more scared of gun violence or the NRA," the Nevadan said.

Delivering his comments on the Senate floor, Reid ticked off a list of some of the nation's deadliest mass shootings in recent years that included the young students killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., as well as the victims of massacres at Fort Hood, Texas, Aurora, Colo., and Washington, D.C.

Reid also included shootings in Las Vegas that left three people dead, including two police officers, and in Carson City, which left four dead.

He cited statistics showing there have been 355 mass shootings so far this year, which means the U.S. is averaging more than one a day.

For a long time now, this lying, senile dork has deserved nothing but laughter and contempt.

But thanks for thr reminder, black-eyed Dingy Harry. I have no need to join the NRA, but I feel the anger, and that's about to change...

Thanks.

I don’t recall a single mass killer who was a member of the NRA... Have there been any?

[publius911]

Some (mostly of leftmind) argue government restrictions can be placed for a “compelling government interest”.

Constitutionally, Government has no rights, only obligations.

Only "We the people" have rights.

So "government interest" is an oxymoron.
Look it up.

Oh man, it would be nice if someone were to grab Harry, fly him to Iran and drop him off without a DIME or a firearm.

Let’s see him box his way out of a mess like THAT.

described the National Rife Association as the Republican Party's "quasi-militant wing.

Actually, I'm OK with that.

And CAIR is the quasi-military wing of the Democrats.

[dware]

No, by all means...keep poking the sleeping giant.

[Roman_War_Criminal]

Reid is mafia and a traitor.

[Titus-Maximus]

Keep sending him gym equipment.

[Lazamataz]

Hows that ‘A’ rating for Reid working out for ya, LaPierre?

You knew he was a scorpion when you gave him a ride across the river.

[SZonian]

This is why I am no longer a NRA member...their “leadership” is too stupid...one trick pony organization or not, they’re stupid to endorse that POS.

[Lazamataz]

Reid is keeping an eye out for militant NRA members.

[mothball]

LOL!!!!

[taterjay]

Get on another tread mill Harry.

[Mr. Lucky]

The NRA was either corrupt or naïve in endorsing this guy. Either way, they can’t be trusted to do the right thing with contributions.

[liberalh8ter]

Okay Dingy....if it makes you feel better to call it that than go ahead; just remember that it exists.

[Seruzawa]

Welfare policy is murder. Democrats are murderers. They own the black on black violence in the inner cities and they created it and enforced it. There is no place in hell hot enough for these smarmy and oh so phony liberals. Their claims that they “care” are just smokescreens for their true intentions from their filthy little clinkers of souls.

[Carthego delenda est]

“It looks like the NRA isn’t very good at vetting their democrat supporters. They should re-evaluate their entire slate of endorsed democrats.”

That is EXACTLY why people quit the NRA.

[RicardoC]

Yes? , and the liberal progressive Democrats are the 5th column of the 2nd coming of the 3rd Reich.

[capydick]

Where the hell is the Republican equivalent speech on the floor to this garbage? The RAT’s are a target rich environment that should be taken advantage of and they just take a pass on it.

[sarge83]

Yes they did and I hope they remember this in the future for other Democrats they give high ratings.
