    The father mounted a stage four blocks from the National Rifle Association convention Saturday to call for gun reform as gun rights supporters heckled him with a bullhorn.http://ow.ly/1wC330jQUl4

        It’s insane we live in a country where a discussion on gun reform is even vilified. He’s a dad who lost a child who is simply asking for some reform so it doesn’t happen to someone else’s child. He’s got nothing to gain. He’s just trying to protect innocent lives

        Why isn't he in Florida, where they enacted the reforms, demanding accountability of Broward County Sheriff's Office and the FBI? That's were fault lays. They're the organizations that failed their duties.

        A father who recently lost his child is heckled, ridiculed and insulted by those fine Christian “good guys” with guns and “responsible gun owners”.

        Gun rights supporters are the same bully, might is right, oppressors, who hates. They are the modern day Sturmabteilung, functioned as the original paramilitary wing of the Nazi Party (NSDAP). It played a significant role in Adolf Hitler's rise to power.

        Can’t reason with a gun control nut either, banning guns and rifles is insanity.

        I believe that everyone has a right to be heard unfettered. However if you are ok with conservative voices being shouted down you can’t show offense if tht tables are turned.

        Of course these are the "fine people" Agent Orange supports, but let one of them suffer the pain of losing a child to gun violence, they will be singing a different tune.

        The @NRA had yet the safest convention ever as they blocked guns from the Hall. I don't blame them, these things are inherently dangerous. By gosh, they finally got it. #marchforourlives. @USATODAY

        50 more gun laws would not have prevented the Parkland shooting. Damn your rag of a shitty paper.

        You’re right, unless there was a total ban on guns, but the carnage could have been significantly lessened if assault weapons were banned.

        People willing to kill indiscriminately is definitely part of the problem, but giving them the ideal vehicle to carry out the carnage is also part of the problem.
