Watching it now..
Pushing for arming teachers and getting rid of gun free zones.
Where is it on?
Found it MSNBC
Douche bag just put up a big sign saying NRA killing our children. Guy is screaming why they are trying to escort him out. Whole press core turned to watch the idiot protestor vs. getting on with the conference.
Now blaming violent video games.. FUCKING MORON!!
Quit fucking blaming inanimate objects.
SO FAR SO GOOD. Putting responsibility on movies, video games etc. Still waiting for the other show to drop.
@#$% i'm like Sniper7;)
Another protestor with big giant sign.. Saying how the NRA is killing the kids and that we need to ban all 'assault weapons'. Screaming. Very little to escort her out. Media taunts Wayne about it.
How the frick do these people get in. Its a tiny conference room.
Sorry, but I can honestly see how someone who isn't mentally right could get caught up in the video game thing. Run around shooting hundreds of people and it's no big deal, because you can just hit reset.
Dont get me wrong, I'm not against video games, in fact I play some myself, but I can see how the connection could be there.
Did anyone see what the sign said that crazy lady was holding?
Absolutely no argument with it. just the NRA flipping it on to another inanimate object. make some of the fence sitters hopefully think.
he's saying guns are good with cops but not citizens? Again calling for armed security in schools YES. Saying what if newton had armed security
Wayne now saying that the NRA, after Virginia Tech, strongly suggested that we should put armed security at schools and the media said Wayne was crazy.
He's been attacking the press for a bit - not making friends.
This is the most pissed-off and worn down I have ever heard him talk.
Talking about school security grants etc. CHANNELING S7 next thing ya know i'm taking flying lessons
Keep on the same track and i'll be happy. veer off to reasonable concessions and :(
Not to say when the chips are down deals will not be made.
ARMED SECURITY NOW!
I take back my armed teacher comment - he's pushing for armed police in every school.
I don't think he was blaming the video games so much as he was pointing out the moral decay of our society. He's right about how our society isn't as wholesome as it once was. He made the point about a child seeing 16k deaths and 200k acts of violence by the time they are 18.
Take the one kid, the right set of circumstances, and you have the next scumbag who shoots up a school.
I love the line "Why is a gun good when it's protecting the President"
He is making some very good points. This is going very well I think.
Why'd it get cut off when it came time to discuss the program?
Would have been better if would have been called FIST rather than SHIELD..
Still a federal crime to take guns into schools so I am curious how this is going to work.
They're talking about it now....watching it online at http://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/2012/1...ss-conference/
I missed the beginning-were any mag/AR bans addressed ?
I think my head is gonna explode if I hear "reasonable, rational, gun control that is in line with the second amendment but get guns only reasonable for battlefields off our streets" again
Here is the transcript for those that missed it.

The nra sucks, WTF was that?
Oh my god msnbc contributors are ignorant!
I think the NRA was very tactful.
They didn't get into a pissing match with the media about the proposed ideas we all know about.
I streamed it from their website.
They fucking nailed it. Just joined for 3yrs.
With that I will be rejoining. I was probably going to anyways but I wanted to see how they responded.
I was interrupted early while watching, so unfortunately I couldn't see the press conference live. I read the transcript and I see nothing that tells me the NRA has drawn a line in the sand and will actively oppose any new legistlation to take away our 2A rights. While I absolutely agree with the other contents, I read nothing that tells me the NRA will fight for the likes of me.
If anything I see an NRA that's not very strong right now. Wayne Lapierre was terrible. He spoke like someone who as been beaten down. They needed to put someone up there who could speak eloquently and pationately. Protestors being able to interrupt the conference makes them look inept. Their message seems to lack any fangs. I dunno. This did nothing to convince me the NRA wouldn't throw us 'gun nuts' under the bus so long as their fudd members could keep their bolt action hunting rifles and break open shotguns.
