The Arizona Shootings: What The NRA Have To Say

The New York Times reported today on What The NRA Have To Say about the Arizona Shootings - which is, presently, not much.

My favorite quote from the article is by a Mr. Erich Pratt, the director of communications for Gun Owners Of America, who said: 

“These politicians need to remember that these rights aren’t given to us by them. They come from God. They are God-given rights. They can’t be infringed or limited in any way. What are they going to do: limit it two or three rounds? 

Having lots of ammunition is critical, especially if the police are not around and you need to be able to defend yourself against mobs.”

Mobs?

Er...what has God got to do with a misrepresentation of (is it) the Second Amendment? 

Jesus frickin' Christ and these people think they're the world's police!
