Bill Moyers Essay: The Gun Lobby’s Firepower
January 4, 2013

Even as sadness turns to outrage over the Newtown tragedy, and powerful coalitions of leaders and celebrities speak out, those who produce, push, and promote guns continue unfazed and unabated. In this broadcast essay, Bill reports on how the NRA and gun merchants continue to strong-arm Congress and state legislatures into keeping any and all discussion of sensible gun control off the table.

In response to a comment I was told to educate myself. So I tried. I found this video. As I watched it occurred to me that the 40 lb gel block is about the same weight as a 1st grader.

I found the video disturbing but I'm sure most of you are made of sterner stuff.
