LaPierre basically told us to get a gun or something bad will happen to you.

[Skidmore]

In my book that was a threat. What was that bit about "just another natural disaster...?"

[bunnies]

1. yeah.

That line had me scratching my head too. He said it multiple times. Exactly WTF did he mean by that?!

[Skidmore]

2. Everytime he said that I heard it as a warning.

An "or else."

[bunnies]

4. Then the asshole runs off without taking questions.

He sounded like one of those Glenn Beck wackos yammering on about some sort of gun-orgy armageddon. If it wasnt a threat, I dont know what else it could have been.

3. just marketing

They are the spokesmen for the for profit gun industry. He sure isn't going to tell you to buy less guns any more than Coke is going to tell you to lay of the soda. Their only goal is to make profit selling lots and lots of guns. Scared people buy more guns and ammo. Thus they like it when people are good and scared.

Listening to them is like listening Kellogg explain to you how to solve the national debt. "I think the debt solution is buy more corn flakes."
