Christopher Martinez died because of the NRA [View all]

Victim of Elliot Rodger mass murder.
Just saw on CNN a spokesman for the family of Christopher Martinez really laid into the NRA. Called them out by name.
And the politicians who are in the pocket of the NRA.
Powerful press conference. I can't find a link to it right now.
