OFF ALERT 12.21.12
NRA CHANGES GEARS, FINALLY.
After long opposing guns in schools by anyone but police, the NRA today held a press conference that
implies they would support civilians in schools with guns. Although most of the press conference referred primarily to police officers :
"I call on Congress today to act immediately, to appropriate whatever is necessary to put armed police officers in every school — and to do it now,”
LaPierre’s speech seemed to leave the door open to train and encourage school staff to be armed as well:
"Is the press and political class here in Washington so consumed by fear and hatred of the NRA and America’s gun owners that you're willing to accept a world where real resistance to evil monsters is a lone, unarmed school principal left to surrender her life to shield the children in her care?”
This is a long overdue and welcomed response by the National Rifle Association and mirrors what have been saying and suggesting since the Sandy Hook massacre.
Welcome aboard NRA.
