Speaking of the nra.....and school shoootings.....
Recently pilfered audio of the NRA strategy meeting directly in the aftermath of columbine has been confirmed and released. Turns out the NRA thinks their people are nuts...hillbillies, hicks..crazies....and, just, generally, a humanitarian and even more importantly... PR disaster.
-and knowing all that...they decided to go the route we all remember, since then.

Must be specifically fascinating to our NPR newsies.
(it's a good bet that comes out of AM, what with their trench based legal knife fight to the death and all - astute listeners might even hear them credited. this is why people who went to the nra meet and greets to teach their kids range safety at 10m bb competitions and get hunting safety certificates... left)
If the us was ever going to do something about kids killing kids at school, ala port arthur, we'd have done so a long while back. We saw it, we wrung our hands, and we decided....fuck it, let's do it and be heroes.
I really don't know what else to say. I wish it were otherwise.
