The sad thing about his press conference is how out of touch it felt.
The NRA dug in when it should have been offering to talk. It didn't need to offer specifics. It didn't need to offer solutions. It just needed to offer to come to the table and join in the conversation.
Instead, by digging in, they created an US vs. THEM mentality, and I think after the Sandy Hook Elementary school shooting, the THEM group is a lot bigger than the US group. I do think every attempt should be made to ensure that any measures deal with the causes of this issue, rather than disproportionate to the problem. But something definitely has to be done to prevent something like this from happening...again.
