The National Rifle Association hasn’t received much in the way of favorable coverage from MSNBC recently. But on Wednesday’s “The Last Word,” host Lawrence O’Donnell took that unfavorable coverage to the next level by blaming the NRA for law enforcement’s inability to track down the perpetrator of Monday’s terrorist attack at the Boston Marathon.

 

O’Donnell made the statement during the opening of his show. He also blamed the gun-rights organization for the failure of legislation in the U.S. Senate that would enhance background checks for gun purchases.

 

“Today the gun lobbyists at the NRA got what they wanted on the floor of the United States Senate and tonight lobbyists from the NRA have made it harder for the FBI to find the murderer who planted the bombs here in Boston,” O’Donnell said.

 

O’Donnell referenced an article posted on MSNBC’s website by Frank Smyth, a long-standing critic of the NRA. The letter alleged that the NRA has lobbied to make tracking gunpowder purchases more difficult.

 

“There are new developments tonight in the bombing investigation here in Boston,” O’Donnell said. “But that investigation could be moving faster were it not for the successful lobbying efforts of the National Rifle Association. The NRA’s efforts to guarantee that American mass murderers are the best-equipped mass murders in the world is not limited to murderers who use assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. The NRA is also in the business of helping bombers get away with their crimes.

 

“Gunpowder could be traced by investigators to a buyer at the point of sale if gunpowder contained a taggant — an element that would enable tracing of the purchase of gunpowder,” he continued. “But thanks to the National Rifle Association, identification taggants are remembered by law only in plastic explosives. The NRA has successfully blocked any requirements for such taggants in gunpowder.”

I wonder where Lawrence O'Donnell got his tinfoil hat?

Well, I blame that knucklehead and the rest of the MSM for overpublicizing these events.

Ha! Here's what I posted just minutes before reading this.

Get ready for a new wave of "taggant" bills. I'd love to see how the technology works on these...

Screw MSNBC.

Just sad

^{A group of those MSNBC pumpkin heads were having a round table discussion the other night and they were claiming the bombing may have been because we waterboarded terrorists during the Bush administration. LOL.}

correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the gunpowder gone after an explosion!! Wouldn't it be better to "track" ball bearings and nails? Those stay intact.

 

I know this is tongue in cheek, and I apologize to all who take offense, just trying to make a point.

F**k MSNBC, take a look here but don't know if this is the real deal or not,, we will see

 

EDIT: Typo

MSNBC isn't a news organization, it's the national enquirer i.e. entertainment.

 

However, it is annoying that these people fail to grasp that the NRA isn't an organization formed by 10 people sitting around a table. It is a group comprised of millions of members with shared values. Doesn't mean we all agree on everything, as that is not possible, but the group was formed to represent gun owners so why is it a surprise to them that the NRA would lobby for gun rights??? Simply baffling. Truth is if they really have a problem with it they can start their own organization to lobby congress for gun control measures. Wonder why that hasn't been successful for them??? Maybe becasue most American's don't agree with them.

MSNBC and the rest of the libitards are what causes the problems in society that are the root cause of our violence problems.

I tuned in to some 'news' channels for the first time in over 4 (or maybe 5?) years on monday, just to try and see what was going on. I flipped between the different channels. I almost immediately remembered why I never watch them. All of them were spouting their biased agenda driven garble almost immediately. The only non-biased reporting I saw on any of the channels (Fox News, MSNBC, CNN, etc.) was from individuals they were interviewing that had no direct affiliation with the channel. And even then, the interviewers were trying to push who they were interviewing into saying a certain thing or make agenda driven assumptions. Ridiculous. Fortunately some who were being interviewed were actually intelligent, and didn't fall for their BS.

 

You have to understand, the Fox News, MSNBC, and CNN are NOT news channels. They are news commentary channels. They don't report the news, they report their personal opinions. It isn't that they are biased (though they obviously are), it is that they have specific agendas that have no correlation (usually) with reality.

 

Yes, usually real news is sprinkled in. Like on Monday, all the channels did report on information they were hearing, and covered statements made by the Boston mayor and Chief of Police (I believe). It would be hard to completely not cover what was happening.

 

MSNBC seems the worst because they also fall on the opposite side of the spectrum for most of us on this forum. But don't think for a second that Fox News is any less biased, just because they tend to have views similar to ours. Yes, they can be correct at times. That doesn't mean they still don't suck...

There may be a *little* truth in that but it is a stacked deck. CNN, NBC, MSNBC, ABC are all-in for camp Obama. I would argue that FOX is Fair & Balanced as they say. Sean Hannity Hannity is the only in your face conservative but IMO Bret Baier, Neil Cavuto, Bill Hemmer, Brit Hume, Bill O'Reilly and Megyn Kelly are Fair & Balanced as advertised.

 

In fact O'Reilly thinks the AR and standard mags should be banned. Now go over to MSNBC, they are ALL of the same mold and no one will go against the grain. MSNBC is Obama central, they even have the Lean Forward logo on the branded into their banner which is the White House mantra. So it is not the same. NBC/MSNBC are given unparalleled access to the Whitehouse so they could ask their softball questions to get their agenda out. Let Megyn Kelly or O'Reilly interview Obama, it will never happen because he or she might ask him something of substance.

When the sitting president is a Republican, watch the flip. Like I said, you tend to agree more with Fox News, so feel it is less biased and more fair. Ask any Democrat which they think is more fair. I guarantee they will say Fox is the least and think CNN or something is the most fair.
