I recently saw a BLM spokeswoman justify looting and denigrating Jessie Jackson of all people for condemning it.

Then-NRA president saying after the OKC bombing "The national media is not to be trusted, and any conversation about guns and the NRA after mass shootings is an untoward politicization of the issue." And that turned out to be their consistent message happily ever after.

After 32 people were killed at Virginia Tech in 2007: "This is a time for people to grieve, to mourn, and to heal. This is not a time for political discussions or public policy debates."

After the 2012 shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School: "The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun."

And after the 2018 shooting at a high school in Parkland, Fla., the NRA's spokesperson said bluntly, "Many in legacy media love mass shootings."

Craven then. Craven now.
