How the NRA Enables Massacres - The Daily Beast

 

[Howey]

But here, in the good ole US of A, we’ve allowed a group of rich, entitled thugs who run an operation fronting for arms dealers—guys who represent a minority position on pretty much every issue having to do with reasonable regulation of firearms*even among gun owners—to dictate our policies to cowardly, careerist politicians.

I already hear the outrage from the right: how can you blame the NRA? We need good guys to have guns, we have to stop the “haters” and “knockout gamers” and … I can't even bear to repeat the infantile and inane talking points coming from cynical and callous people like the NRA's Executive Vice President and foaming mouthpiece Wayne LaPierre.

[Howey]

We know how to stop these incidents, or at least greatly reduce them.*We've seen other countries do it, such as Australia, which was averaging one of these massacres a year until their infamous Port Arthur Massacre in 1996. After which they completely overhauled their gun laws. Since then, a country with the same frontier history as the United States has not experienced one mass shooting. Not one. Their homicides and suicides have also precipitously dropped.

By quoting the Daily Beast. Move along folks.

Lol...see the loon who quotes Alex Jones.

Unfortunately the Republicans let corporate America taste blood during the Bush regime by letting them do whatever they wanted. The only way to get our country back is to vote out all Republicans, and unfortunately overhauling gun laws will be a necessity.

Well, the family warned the police WEEKS before the killings....maybe if they had done their job 6 innocents would still be alive. And, don't forget, three were stabbed to death. Last time I checked gun control laws don't work on knives. Hell, they don't work on criminals either.....

You can't blame the police...that is idiotic. I guess you don't believe in due process.

And fudge packers are more than 500 times more likely to spread HIV than normal people.
Fudge packers should be outlawed.

Let' see, the psycho (the shooter, not Howie) killed 3 by using a knife which are readily available nearly everywhere and available to anyone. He then killed 4 by using a gun, which are much harder to obtain and much more expensive.
In this particular case then, it seems the knife should be the bigger concern, due to the ease of obtaining.

How about addressing his point.

When you have the notion that a gun is a "right", and that everyone should be able to have one, even if they are mentally ill, you are going to get guys like this one, aren't you?

Where are the overhaul the knife laws people? (sarcasm) If one of the three people that this nutcase stabbed to death had had a gun there would have been a different outcome.

ban black BMW's s0ns!!!

 

[Stephanie]

you see they've made the killer a victim by blaming the NRA

So it's you idiots who blames others instead of the person who did it, is giving the go ahead to more of these types of mass killings.

good job but you got your lick at an organization that didn't have a thing to do with it

you people from the dailybeast and the op should be locked up with the killer

You dim-witted piece of shit. The Republicans were voted out in 2008. The country has gone straight downhill since that time.
The OP is a moron. One look at his disgusting avatar tells you what you need to know.
