NRA Speaker Supports Unsafe Gun Handling

May12

Specifically, the Governor of Kentucky who is speaking at the NRA meeting on Friday considers shooting people in the face to be “a problem solver.”

Speaking before Clinton, Gov. Steve Beshear had some fighting words of his own. …

“I can think of only one Republican that could be a problem solver,” he added. “And that is Vice President Cheney, if he would just take George on a hunting trip.”

Bad form! Advocating shooting the president just because you disagree on policy, especially just days before you speak to an organization that has invested millions of dollars into training more than 51,000 instructors on gun safety, is beyond stupid.

As an instructor, I would hope that Gov. Beshear has the decency to renounce his words and apologize to NRA’s membership when he speaks on Friday.
