NRA at 10:45 E.t and 9:45 C.t. tune in

[Kahr33556]

thumbs up to the NRA

 

[morcey2]

Fox news cut away just as he started talking about the program that they were proposing. :banghead:

I'm watching online, but have the TV on.

 

[Yo Mama]

Why did Fox dump it, and CNN is continuing coverage!

 

[kdave21]

Throwing violent video games under the bus = GOOD MOVE. They deserve to be thrown under the bus, and have an effect on kids whether you think they do or not.

Suggesting armed gaurds in every school = GOOD MOVE. One of the best remedies to to horrible problem. Cowards with guns hate brave men with guns.

So far so good. Good press conference.

 

[RDCL]

Thinking the same here! Why'd they cut away?

 

[Tim the student]

So, it sounds like the NRA is not willing to talk about any bans, control efforts etc. Thumbs up for that.

And they are providing a solution that will "do it for the children".

 

[Tim the student]

Well done, IMO.

 

[JBrady555]

I wish they would have talked more about how a AWB would be meaningless. Besides that it was good.

 

[Kahr33556]

No gun control talk great.

 

[Blackstone]

BBC already focusing the protestors

 

[Isaac-1]

Well that was interesting and well thought out, did anyone else notice the protesters had good timing to reinforce the NRA message?

 

[Skribs]

At least he specifically centered on video games and movies that glorify murder instead of all violent video games in general.

However, as a gamer I still think it's a low blow.

Personally, I've played Grand Theft Auto, and I've never beaten and robbed a streetwalker or gotten in shootouts with the cops.

I am extremely pleased by what I've heard. The NRA has proposed the next logical step in dealing with the tragedy- REAL, PREVENTIVE MEASURES.

 

[xwingband]

I'm happy about what they said. They pounded their qualifications to train and are putting their money where their mouth is by saying they will prepare it.

CNN is already pounding that they didn't talk about "gun control"... no surprise, but they did the right thing by not mentioning any of it.

 

[Tim the student]

I think now, more than ever, that we are going to win this fight.

 

[Double Vision]

Well done indeed. They have a real proposal for the problem of kids being unprotected in schools.

 

[MasterShake]

Good overall. The part about video games and movies was totally worthless though.

Yeah, the anti-gun whack-jobs did a great job of looking like the strung-out nut-jobs we know them to be.

 

[morcey2]

My renewal is due in January and I was waiting for what they said today. I'm renewing and seriously thinking about a lifetime membership.

Video games are not the culprit here. That is like blaming guns for shootings. Video games are a form of entertainment, not unlike movies or books.

You might as well blame "Two and a Half Men" for causing you to have liver failure because you drank like Charlie Sheen after watching it.

 

[saenzrich]

Can someone post a link to the speech for those who missed it?

 

[coolluke01]

anyone have a link to the whole video? I missed the first part.

 

[BCCL]

Overall good start.

 

[XGibsonX]

Directing attention in that direction is EXACTLY what I expected. It is the proper move when your opponent does NOT respond to rational discourse. And the antis do not.

Move 1: blame guns
Counter 1: blame things near and dear to opponent

 

[JBrady555]

They said a transcript would be on the NRA's website for those who missed it.
