Virginia Tech Massacre: NRA Begins Healing Process
By Alan Lord
Fairfax, Virginia - A shocked and deeply disturbed National Rifle Association joined a shocked and deeply disturbed President Bush in expressing their sincerest condolences to the families of Virginia Tech University, as well as all NRA members affected by the campus rampage.
"The victims of this horrible tragedy also include law-abiding registered gun owners and gun lovers," stated NRA CEO Wayne La Pierre. "Let the healing process begin," he continued. "Let us come together and hold hands - using the hand that's not holding the gun."
He went on to point out that the perpetrator had a long history of mental illness, and stated it was this illness that caused the pain and suffering, not the ready availability of guns at any corner shop or Walmart.
"If only all those other kids had had guns, one of them might have stopped this guy."
"Let us all hold up our heads and our guns in proud defiance," La Pierre concluded, and ask not what your country can do about guns, but ask what guns can do for your country."
