Wayne LaPierre: Gas Bag of the Month.

NRA CEO Wayne LaPierre says his organization is ready to support all reasonable measures to reduce gun violence .... EXCEPT ... legislation specifically targeted to guns and ammunition. And he says this with a straight face. In truth, the NRA is not willing to support all reasonable measures to reduce the slaughter visited on innocent men, women, and children. Mr. LaPierre proposes placing armed guards in schools, increased prosecution of criminals, and the hospitalization of the mentally ill [all worthy of consideration] but flatly refuses to consider common sense measures like banning large capacity magazines. With the slaughter of 20 young children and 6 teachers still traumatizing our national psyche, Mr. LaPierre's truculence is inexcusable.
