NRA chief wanted guns to fight storm violence that didn't happen
2/16/2013NRA chief Wayne LaPierre may want to check some of his stats. In a column for the Daily Caller, LaPierre expands on his rationale for loosening gun laws: "After Hurricane Sandy, we saw the hellish world that the gun prohibitionists see as their utopia. Looters ran wild in south Brooklyn ... and if you wanted to walk several miles to get supplies, you better get back before dark, or you might not get home at all." Except, that didn't happen. While reports of burglary increased, overall the city actually saw crime drop by 25 percent. "Wayne’s world is a loopy place," said a spokesman for Mayor Michael Bloomberg. [Source]
