The story is up on the Internet in a Washington Post article by Tom Jackman, who writes a Northern Virginia Blog called The State Of Nova.
Titled..."Petitions seeking reduction in gun violence taken to NRA headquarters, but NRA won't accept them."
The MomsRising group was joined by the Reston-Herndon Alliance To End Gun Violence, who have begun gathering outside the NRA headquarters on the 14th of every month, the day that 20 children were killed in Newtown, Conn.
"This is more than just a protest," said Joanna Simon of the local group, "to remember all people killed by gun violence."
The NRA did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
I was unable to find a working link to this article ....perhaps someone else can.
