Lol looks like NRA is doing some damage control. There is soo much heat on they they decided to point the finger to video games and entertainment to try to get the media off their backs some.
The media would have been on them regardless. Some nasty things have been said in the past week, including demands by a representative of the Texas Democratic party to kill all NRA members.
But if you actually read the press release, that I have linked in 4 different places, you will see that they are actually offering a solution. One that has been requested by leading members of the Democrat party, like Barbra Boxer. I didn't read the press releases and I don't have any interest to read it and yes the media would already be on them this is a give. I was just saying they are trying to deflect some of the heat off them.
It was less of an effort to deflect the heat, as it was an effort to highlight some of the blatant hypocrisy that surrounds a lot of media. That the people who put out violent movies, games, tv shows, etc... are usually the first people to scream anti-gun rhetoric when violence occurs.
By perpetrating a violent culture, then -blam!-ing about violence in the world.
He didn't deliver it in the best way. In fact I felt it was the weakest part of his speech. While it had a point, it was just badly delivered. A notation that people are ultimately responsible for their actions, and that we need better ways to help those who need help would have been far more effective.
This media section has headlined the entire press release. How many reports on their proposal have you seen? The Shield Program is something a lot of people already agree with. An effort to get trained security guards on campus. Yet how many people are talking about that now?
