While the NRA is blaming video games and the media for the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre, an incident involving the NRA president’s son may create new controversy.

In 2002, David Michael Keene, the son of NRA president David Keene was arrested for firing a gun at a motorist while driving along the George Washington Memorial Parkway in a road rage incident. He was later convicted and sentenced to 10 years in prison for “using, brandishing, and discharging a firearm in a crime of violence.”
