    | The NRA has become a promotional tool of gun manufacturers. Their business plan calling for the selling of more guns is not the way to protect schoolkids and teachers as they study, learn and grow. In less than five minutes, eight boys and 12 girls, all either 6 or 7 years old, along with six adults died in the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre. The NRA tells us that in the first 30 seconds of confusion some adult can recognize a mass shooter is in the building, unlock a safe storing a gun, find the bullets stored in a different location, run out into the hall and shoot the gunman dead. That would make a great ad for gun manufacturers but is far removed from reality.
