I wish they had kept their
mouths shut.
by New York City Council Speaker Christine C. Quinn
Seven days after those teachers and children were murdered in Newtown,
Connecticut the NRA has broken their silence. I wish they had kept their
mouths shut. All they did today was add more pain and heartache to
those Newtown families. Their remarks are some of the most stupid,
asinine, insensitive, ridiculous comments I have ever heard made in the
public arena. All these remarks tell us is that the NRA does not seem to
care about protecting our children. I do not understand how even with
all of those little coffins being rolled out in Newtown, that the NRA
believes the answer is more guns. All that would have happened if there
were armed guards in Sandy Hook Elementary is that we would now have
dead armed guards. Why do we need an army style gun in that school, a
gun we send to Afghanistan? I think the NRA’s comments today were a
clear and blatant attempt to throw salt in the wounds of families who
lost their loved ones. As a human being, I am surprised and tremendously
disappointed in what the NRA did today.
