She declined an interview, so they played some past interviews. Says the Brady representative Brian Malte:
Marion Hammer and the NRA are the masterminds of a dangerous, paranoid mentality that got Trayvon Martin killed, the mentality that’s responsible for endangering all of our lives. It’s based on a lie that you need to be armed to the teeth anywhere you go.
Get that? Paranoid mentality. Looks like the Brady folks are adopting the CSGV technique of moving forward by demonizing gun owners. I predict this will ultimately prove to be no more successful than the moderate path under Helmke.
“Looks like the Brady folks are adopting the CSGV technique of moving forward by demonizing gun owners.”
Remind me again of how gun sales have been for the last 3 years!
Epic fail in my opinion!
I think their president is giving them the go ahead to a bit more bat shit crazy.
All of this is true. (About them being out of touch with reality) HOWEVER.. we should never sit on our asses and just make fun of them and think that’s enough. These demented people need to be slapped down hard, and polls reminded of where their constituents stand on this issue. As well, to fight the media blitz, educate your NON-SHOOTING friends, neighbors, co-workers, family …etc. We sat on our asses and said it wouldn’t happen before…then it did.
I would have refused a “gotcha” interview as well. The case has nothing to do with stand your ground and a good deal to do with self defense.
