Gun lobbyists plan media push after Newtown massacre.
The National Rifle Association, or N.R.A., one of the most
powerful and influential non-profit organizations to politicians and lawmakers in
America, has been quiet for since the mass shooting incident in Newtown, Connecticut
but is now ready to break its silence.
America has been continuously and often divided for major
issues which hadn’t been openly or legally practiced in other developed countries
such as slavery, racial discrimination, gay marriages and gun control. It’s
very difficult for foreigners to understand why people can buy, own and even shoot
guns at people for the sake of self-defense in the modernized nation. It’s also
stunning to know that over 11,000 people were killed by guns in 2011.
Enjoy reading and learning one aspect of American society
and political culture.
