Although there have been mass shootings around the world occurring in schools, churches, restaurants, movie theaters, and sporting events, the leader of the NRA gun lobby, Wayne LaPierre claims that the solution is not the elimination of lethal weapons, but encourages more of them.

The man who hates people but loves guns was speaking at CPAC when he denounced ‘gun free zones.’ He called them “the worst and most dangerous of all lies.”

“The simple truth [is] that the only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun,” LaPierre said, repeating a favorite conservative talking point. “The politicians and the media be damned.”

By the way; the CPAC event is a ‘gun free zone.’

LaPierre is a very wealthy man thanks to his employers, gun manufacturers and gun sellers. The reality is that he has no interest in the second amendment or the safety of the American people. He has a single purpose; his job is to increase the profits of his employers.

This capitalist will not rest until every man, woman, and child in the United States carries a loaded weapon.

I have a dream. I want to live long enough to see an NRA convention when a gun battle breaks out between those attending. I also hope that the first person shot is LaPierre.

When will the American people regain their logic and face the facts? 30,000 innocent Americans die from the use of a gun each year in our nation. People from other nations believe that everyone possesses guns in our big cities. Is that a reputation our people want to protect?
