*Official Prediction String** New NRA talking points in response to firefighters being killed

My best guess is : "Well, we clearly MUST arm ALL of our firefighters nationally, so they can adequately defend themselves from all those 'bad people' with guns"!!! --> with thought balloon saying "Now let's see. 1.5 million firefighter$ X $850 (price of an AR-15), that's $9.6 TRILLION. Not bad.">

Of course, M$M reporters will probably forget to ask: "Mr. LaPierre, just how do you think all those 'bad people' got their guns in the first place?"

Our heroic firefighters need to outgun the bad guys, so might I suggest rocket propelled grenade launchers on every fire truck? Anyone who disagrees with this idea is obviously a pinko, dirt worshipping commie marxist Kenyan gun grabber.

(just in case it wasn't obvious).

Perhaps all fire trucks should be armored & mount .50 calibers. I too add for those who might be in a hurry reading the post and miss the intent.

... he was already a felon and couldn't legally have access to a firearm, and we need to improve enforcement so that this kind of thing doesn't happen anymore."

That would be my guess.

But the NRA would blame literally anything other than guns. If a department store Santa went on a shooting rampage, the NRA would be blaming Christmas.
