Conservative pundit Joe Scarborough stands up to the NRA! I am impressed, this from the top torture advocate in America. Its that Fox News Christianity thing…
I have seen David Brooks and other conservatives finally step up to the plate on this over the weekend.
This one may finally be THE ONE to bring sanity to our insane American gun culture.
20 little children, 6 and 7, 10 days before Christmas, with an assault rifle using 30 round clips the shooter had easy access to because his mother was a gunloon with a dozen such weapons laying around the house. A house she knew also contained a very troubled mentally ill child. Who she trained to love and shoot assault rifles.
I once read a book by an idiot some years ago. It's premise was not only that the Brady Bill was anti American, that Sarah Brady should be euthanized, but took specific issue to explain what a lie it is that the Brady Foundation has said people who have guns in the home are 5 times more likely to have those guns kill themselves, family members and friends. The author, Ted Nugent in his book GUNS, GOD AND ROCK AND ROLL goes on in the book to relive THREE occasions where he was present when an unloaded gun when off almost killing someone. In his dad's car, in his kitchen and fired by his toddler in the Nugent Clan locked armory from an unloaded gun during a party.
How stupid do you have to be to write a book contending that having a gun in your house makes you more susceptible to dying by that gun and then tell three stories where it almost happened. REALLY REALLY STUPID. It don't get any dumber than Ted Nugent, or most of his cohorts in the board of directors at the NRA.
Check the NRA out. Who are they? They are the Tea Party on steroids. Meet NRA Board Members
