      “As usual, the opportunists wasted not one second to exploit tragedy for political gain,” Wayne LaPierre says. “Think about that.

          “What is hard to understand is why no one at the FBI stood up and called B.S. on its rogue leadership,” NRA leader Wayne LaPierre says. “Still, too much of today's Washington, no one speaks out. No one challenges authority.” http://cbsn.ws/2EXN769 pic.twitter.com/e1z7ru62Tx

          As I write this, Wayne LaPierre is actually, with a straight face, claiming that the NRA is our nation’s greatest protector of children. I swear I can almost hear the sounds of a new room in Hell being constructed in the background.

          The kids in Florida have stuck a knife in the pig and the pig is squealing! One thing is certain, more guns in America, more shootings in America - Not close. Not arguable. Everything else is a smoke screen to defend more gun sales.

          One question for you Wayne. If guns stop more gun violence, explain why armed & well trained police officers still manage to get killed?

          .Wrong question LaPierre. The question you should ask is; Do we really love our weapons and NRA money more than we love our children?

          So tired of this rhetoric, no one is talking about the right to your precious guns. It’s the assault weapons that for whatever reason some think they have a “right” to that need to be addressed.
