“Law-abiding gun owners will not accept blame for the acts of violent or deranged criminals,” LaPierre said.
“Nor do we believe the government should dictate what we can lawfully own and use to protect our families,” added LaPierre.
This comments come from a press release of the NRA concerning what LaPierre's initial comments will be.
Per the release, he also will state this:
While we’re ready to participate in a meaningful effort to solve these pressing problems, we must respectfully — but honestly and firmly — disagree with some members of this committee, many in the media, and all of the gun control groups on what will keep our kids and our streets safe.
But there are things that can be done and we ask you to join with us. The NRA is made up of millions of Americans who support what works … the immediate protection for all — not just some — of our school children; swift, certain prosecution of criminals with guns; and fixing our broken mental health system.
The attempt to implement gun control, which without a doubt will eventually lead to the attempt to confiscate all firearms, is completely wrong-headed. Why that's so is because God Himself has revealed to us it's what is inside of man that is wrong.
That's why there are all sorts of ways people murder other people, with guns being just one of many.
LaPierre has called for armed security guards at all schools, while Republican Kentucky Senator Rand Paul says there should be administrators and teaches in schools that are trained and armed to deal with any shooter that may show up.
The bottom line is law has never been able to deal with the actions of man, as it's what's inside of man where the evil comes from. That's why Jesus Christ came, saying the law can never save, but was put in place in order to point to Him, who is the only one that can change people within.
Gun owners and the NRA have absolutely nothing to do with the crazy and evil people that kill; it's a human condition which can't be solved through laws, but only by meeting that force with an equal force that will end the attempted carnage.
Those in churches that were being attacked found out when they started having armed members who didn't hesitate to defend the congregation, the shootings almost completely dried up. That looks to be the best way to approach a problem that is one of human nature, not one that has anything to do with guns other than it's the weapon of choice of some of those looking to kill people.
What is really happening is the liberals, most Democrats, and the current administration, are using the recent tragedy of murdered school children in an attempt to confiscate the firearms of law-abiding citizens, to the end that once they do that there will be nothing to stop a corrupt government from doing anything it chooses to. That's why the Second Amendment was added when it was, in order to be a final check and balance to rulers who want to become dictators and abandoning the rule of law.
