    “Who is to blame for the tragic shooting at the school that killed 26 people recently?”
    The answer is Adam Lanza. Who is to blame for making it so easy for Adam Lanza to kill so many people so quickly? The answer is the leadership of the NRA and the gun manufacturers they represent. The blame also lies at the feet of timid politicians who can always find reasons to restrict the rights of voters, women, labor and the environment. But can’t find the courage to stand up to the leadership of the NRA
