Broward county sheriff Tears NRA Spokes A-Hole a New A-Hole on CNN

Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel to NRA spokeswoman Dana Loesch: “You just told this group of people you are standing up for them. You are not standing up for them until you say, 'I want less weapons'” #StudentsStandUp





Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel: "We do need to have some gun control and reform. ... Anybody who says different, I don't know about other people, but Emma (Gonzalez) and I -- we're calling BS on that" http://cnn.it/2FlK2uj #StudentsStandUp





And the Sheriff is not alone is calling BS on the NRA BS Artist. This teacher school the Dotard enabler from the NRA:
Teacher Diane Wolk Rogers asks the NRA spokeswoman to explain how she defines a “well-regulated militia” and how “an 18-year-old with a military rifle is well-regulated” Loesch: “He should have been barred from getting a firearm” #StudentsStandUp





A mother points out the NRA hollow valuation of the 2d Amendment

The mother of Scott Beigel, a teacher who was killed in the shooting, to NRA spokeswoman Dana Loesch: "Why are my son's unalienable rights not protected as fiercely as the right to bear arms?" #StudentsStandUp

"CNN contributor Dana Loesch's particular brand of vitriol has been absent from the network's airwaves since July 25. While CNN announced her hiring last year by saying it was "gearing up for the election season," the network has not called on the inflammatory right-wing radio host to comment on political events.."

Loesch's three-month absence from CNN follows what a CNN executive described as her effective but unannounced suspension earlier this year. The suspension came after Loesch responded to news that U.S. Marines had allegedly urinated on the dead bodies of Taliban forces by saying of the incident, "I'd drop trou and do it too."

He know two things for sure:

(1) Access to military style weapons by civilians makes his job harder and
(2) If he wants to get re-elected, he needs to be on the right side of this one.

Now, we need to make other politicians realize that if they want to get re-elected they need to get on the people's side.
