"We call B.S." on the NRA's Wayne Lapierre and his Heretical and Blasphemous Statements
In the aftermath of the mass shooting at a high school in Florida, we saw and heard courageous student survivors stand up to and call out politicians in a manner we haven't seen since student protestors worked together to end the Vietnam War. Unfortunately, we also saw and heard the head of the National Rifle Association Wayne LaPierre commit what might be called heresy and blasphemy, when he declared the falsehood that the greatest God-given right is to own and operate a deadly weapon.
