The National Rifle Association’s social media accounts have gone dark following the massacre at Sandy Hook School in Newtown, Conn.When have loud mouths like Wayne La Pierre or NRA board member Ted Nugent been silent about anything?
Since the tragic shooting Friday, the NRA has declined to comment, rejecting invitations to speak from MSNBC and other networks. That media blackout extends to the powerful gun lobby’s social media accounts: The group has gone silent on Twitter, suspending the NRA’s 10 days of Christmas giveaway, and un-published its Facebook page.
It seems the only people who have had anything to say are a couple politicians who are changing sides in the AWB debate.
The rest of them are rightfully ashamed and embarrassed for the role they've played in tragedies like Connecticut.
