I agree with the core message -- that it's hypocritical for wealthy gun control advocates to place their children in schools with armed guard while demanding that no armed security be available for the 99%'s kids. It does say to me that they consider their children more valuable and worthy of protection than ours. NRA should've made it clearer that they aren't talking about the Secret Service -- they're talking about private security guards hired by elite private schools.

As for the "blah blah tax and spend liberals blah blah" Republican crap, it makes me glad I'm not paying Norquist and Nugent anymore.

This should be interesting liberal N proud Jan 2013 #1
