Ann Coulter rails against
NRA’s Wayne LaPierre

Daily Caller, by Jeff Poor

Original Article

Posted By:Donttaxmebro, 12/31/2012 1:34:31 PM

On Sean Hannity’s radio show last Friday with Mark Simone filling in for Hannity, conservative commentator and author Ann Coulter expressed her dissatisfaction with National Rifle Association CEO Wayne LaPierre, particularly his “Meet the Press” appearance on NBC from a week ago. Coulter suggested LaPierre and other gun supporters should become familiar with the works of John Lott, whose 1998 book “More Guns, Less Crime” makes an argument against limiting the number of firearms.

Comments:
Yes, the NRA definitely has some public relations issues to overcome.

But it´s hard to speak on behalf of gun ownership these days without being demagogued

Wasn´t Ann telling us during the Primaries we HAD to pick Chris Christie or Mitt Second Place Romney. Her credibility is withering on the vine. The NRA is the only Conservative organization that appears to have a backbone. Thanks NRA.

The NRA needs another Charlton Heston who can articulate & communicate the facts.

She did predict that if Romney was our nominee he would lose. I´ll give her that but otherwise ´meh´ to her!

Maybe some of you might read the article, but that would be to much work. She was criticizing La Pierre for not making the argument that guns decrease crime. Those of you criticizing Coulter must believe that guns cause crime.

Wayne LaPierre is sort of like Newt Gingrich in the 90s.. he is hated by the media for who he is and what he stands for.

Surprised the MSM hasn´t done a hatchet job on him yet.

The NRA is a sell out organization from time to time - supporting supposedly "pro gun" democrats to make themselves look open minded, when in fact there is no such thing as a real pro gun Democrat. Ann, for all her recent foibles, was right in this case.

Read more than the headline people, else you´ll look stupid.

Exactly, #6. Most posters didn´t read past the headline before commenting. LaPierre didn´t make his own best case...and came out looking irrelevant because of the way he handled the issue. Supporters of the NRA need to recognize that LaPierre isn´t God...and he isn´t always 100% correct or compelling when presenting his side.

It´s not the spokesman for the NRA - it´s the message the left hates. Charlton Heston was vilified and ridiculed during his tenure. The left will stone Moses or anyone daring to promote the 2nd Amendment. LaPierre might have missed a few opportunities to verbally b---h slap NBC´s new Neanderthal but, the attacks would come anyway.

We can walk and talk without the likes of Hew, Anne, and Rush breathing down our necks. 55% of WOMAN voted for Bam, 55% of MOMS voted for Bam, 60% Catholics voted for Bam, and 70% Jews voted for Bam.

When you´re on one of TV segments,you don´t have time to explain the rise and fall of the roman empire,you have to crunch what you say to make the most impact.There´s tons of stories and examples on the positives of gun ownership but you´re swimming up stream in front of a hostile liberal format TV show.

I, for one, make time every day to come here and read the comments generated by this most erudite community of highly committed, traditional, patriotic Americans.

The quality of prose found in this comment section often exceeds the crapolla found in the original articles. (except Mark Steyn, Dalingpole,Unsweet Ann Coulter and a few others)

You don´t think a liberal mom would shoot someone trying to kill their kids? You don´t think a teacher would do the same? Rather than have one or two armed guards in a school, I would think it would be better to have 10-20 teachers carrying and allow parents to carry - other than those involved in divorce.

Ann may or may not be relevant. It doesn´t matter. What does matter is that the current mainstream media needs to be put out of business. They are the greatest enemy ever faced by a free people.

Funny, since they are susposedly the first line of defense against an out of control government and instead of defending us, they work to enable that very out of control government.

How any single profession could attract so many truly dumb people is quite bewildering.

My problem with Coulter is her Monday morning quarterbacking. Perhaps she should run for head of NRA, RNC or some other group that would require her to put her where her mouth is because after backing Christie I don´t think she really stands for anything other than herself.

What´s hard to understand is that when a school shooting happens, people (school administrators) call up other people (police) to bring in guns to get the bad guy. Why not have the guns already there so less people get killed. Teachers should have the right to carry guns. They should be trained and the guns should have some sort of safety device installed so the students can´t use them. This would be cheaper than having the police stationed there. The bottom line would be fewer deaths.

#26, I read every post on this story and didn´t see one case of ´hatred or vitriol´ save your own statement which is mostly because you threw in the word ´hate.´

There is nothing wrong with a little disagreement or difference of opinion. We all can agree that the news media, liberal-progressives and the like are the real enemies of our way of life.

On his radio show this week, conservative talker Mark Levin said that Fox News host Bill O’Reilly, who on Tuesday claimed that opponents of same-sex marriage do nothing but “thump the Bible,” should stop degrading his audience. “Thump the Bible?” Levin asked. “Have I thumped the Bible once in an hour and a half on the air today? … Why are you putting down your audience? I thought you stood for the folks. And you sound like [President Barack] Obama, with the ‘clinging to their guns and religion’ line. You should show respect to your audience.”

On Dennis Prager’s radio show on Monday, conservative commentator Ann Coulter offered her takeaways from last weekend’s Conservative Political Action Conference held outside Washington, D.C., where Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul won the event’s presidential straw poll. Coulter, author of “Mugged: Racial Demagoguery from the Seventies to Obama,” explained how that happened, which led to her critique of the libertarian movement within college campuses and its antics. “’How did that happen?’ you’re wondering,” she said. “Ron Paul used to win every year because these libertarian

In covering the selection of Pope Francis I, many in the media speculated as to whether the new head of the Roman Catholic Church would take a more liberal theological position on homosexuality and abortion. But in his regular Thursday appearance on Hugh Hewitt’s radio show, Mark Steyn, author of “After America: Get Ready for Armageddon,” viewed that media speculation along with other “trivial” aspects of the coverage to be ridiculous considering the church has held those same beliefs for thousands of years now. “Well, you know, I think the papal coverage in the so-called serious media

On Rush Limbaugh’s radio show on Monday, National Review’s Mark Steyn explained why an incident involving a seven-year-old boy’s punishment and the subsequent reaction for chewing a Pop Tart in the shape of a gun is a sign the country is “doomed.” Steyn, author of “After America: Get Ready for Armageddon,” compared this generation of children, who may have felt threatened by the so-called Pop Tart gun, to the American generation that stormed the beaches of Normandy. “You’re doomed, America,” Steyn said. “You’re done for.

The United States Department of Agriculture has been working to dispel immigrants’ concerns that getting on Food Stamps will harm their chances of becoming U.S. citizens. The USDA addresses those fears in Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or food stamp, brochures it distributes to Mexican consulates as part of its “partnership” with the Mexican government “to help educate eligible Mexican nationals living in the United States about available nutrition assistance.” In one portion of the brochure, USDA’s text asks, “If I get on SNAP benefits, will I be a “public charge?’”

Recent research indicates that the number of people who do not consider themselves a part of an organized religion is steadily on the rise. Interestingly enough, though the number of those religiously unaffiliated is increasing, there is little to no trend in the number of those who express atheist or agnostic beliefs. People aren’t saying they don’t believe in God. They’re saying they don’t believe in religion. They are not rejecting Christ. They are rejecting the church. This begs the question, “Why are we losing our religion?”

Put out an all-points bulletin: Millions of Americans have gone missing from the workforce. Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank

No one is more preoccupied these days with Hillary Clinton´s 2016 plans than the Beltway political class—not even the former presidential candidate herself. To hear some tell it, her decision will be dispositive for all other Democrats thinking of entering the race. And pundits and reporters aren´t the only ones positing the "The Hillary Factor": No less than the House Democratic whip, Steny Hoyer, told BuzzFeed, “I don´t know that anybody would run against Hillary…. If she runs, she clears the field.” It´s an understandable conclusion, given Clinton´s stature in the Democratic Party and her 70 percent
