NRA Breaks Silence...

[Dennis1209]

Watching Nashville Fox 17 news this morning and a chill ran down my spine. I'm hoping I heard it wrong or misinterpreted it!

 

The way I understood the news report as quoted by the news anchors (paraphrased), "the NRA is extremely saddened and will work to prevent a future occurrence"!

 

Admittedly, I haven't read the official NRA response yet but, the liberal news report made it seem like the NRA is going to compromise big time?

 

Facts / Thoughts?

The National Rifle Association of America is made up of four million moms and dads, sons and daughters - and we were shocked, saddened and heartbroken by the news of the horrific and senseless murders in Newtown.

Out of respect for the families, and as a matter of common decency, we have given time for mourning, prayer and a full investigation of the facts before commenting.

The NRA is prepared to offer meaningful contributions to help make sure this never happens again.

The NRA is planning to hold a major news conference in the Washington, DC area on Friday, December 21.

Details will be released to the media at the appropriate time.

Based on CCI's post I think they have handled it well so far. "Meaningful contributions" is a very tasteful and appropriate answer. Granted they will probably just say the same things we have all been saying one here and it will fall on deaf ears. You can't reason with unreasonable people.

Ok, thank you CCI.

 

Either the media spun it or I misunderstood the report. I never rely on the media for accuracy so I wanted to ask here as you guys are always on top.

 

Excellent NRA response!
