Gun Owners Of America's Larry Pratt Suggests 'Little Twerp' David Hogg May Be Crisis Actor

Larry Pratt, the longtime leader of the right-of-the-NRA Gun Owners of America, who is now the group’s executive director emeritus, suggested in a radio interview last week that Parkland shooting survivor David Hogg, who has since become an outspoken proponent of gun law reform, was an actor, saying that “little twerp” Hogg is “right out of central casting, in fact he may be.”

Pratt appeared on an April 24 episode of former Missouri Republican state representative Cynthia Davis’ podcast “Home Front with Cynthia Davis.”

Davis asked Pratt about his thoughts on Hogg, falsely asserting that “he wasn’t even there when the tragedy occurred,” a reference to conspiracy theories stemming from an out-of-context quote from Hogg in a CBS documentary.

“According to what he said himself, he was either in a classroom in another building, away from the shooter, or he got on his bicycle and rode to school when he heard there was a shooting going on, so he can’t even tell the same story about what he was doing in the same rather memorable time frame,” Pratt claimed.
