It would have been a great moment for the NRA to say something like this:

Dear America,

This has been as difficult for us as it has been for you. Our deepest sympathies go out to those lost and those who lost loved ones.

We here at the NRA do not believe this is the time to discuss politics. Rational decisions are never made during states of heavy emotions.

We believe gun policy should be determined by facts, research, past experience and social science, instead of knee-jerk, emotional reactions.

This is the only statement we will make at this time.

Thank you,

The NRA

Instead the NRA made some decent points combined with some stupid ass points. Most people will only remember the dumbass points

Agree, completely. This administration does not let a crisis go to waste.
