Well the NRA can't get much lower than mocking Giffords. To me the NRA reminds me of a bunch of Elmer Fudd wannabe's. The NRA is truly a classless group of people. If any of you which I'm sure there is are members and I offended some of you...TOO FUCKING BAD!

Only one answer left for these NRA stooges and all the members.

IRS audits.

I don't know a damn thing about twitter or the twits who tweet, but here is the NRA tweet:

Gabby Giffords: Everyone Should Have to Pass Background Check My Attacker Passed http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/03/04/gabby-giffords-everyone-should-have-to-pass-background-check-my-attacker-passed/ … #2A #NRA
10:20 AM - 5 Mar 2015

Near as I can tell they simply passed along her exact words from a speech earlier that day or whenever.

The word "MOCK" was added by various news outlets.

Not her exact words.

I wonder if Sarah Palin has any comment? Since the Giffords shooting was her fault.

Her comment did not make sense, which is sad because her confusion could've been caused by the fact that she was shot in the head. And anyone who denies that the tweet was mocking her is simply lying to themselves. They re-posted it with a smile on their face knowing that it didn't make sense. Instead of showing compassion for a disabled victim, they chose to mock her for the mistake she made. What a great group of people they are.

With a comment like that, you're putting yourself down to Palin's level. Congrats.

Wow.

This is the propaganda from Breitbart:

On Wednesday, gun control advocate Gabby Giffords stood with Democratic lawmakers on Capitol Hill to demand that everyone buying a gun be required to undergo the same background check Jared Loughner underwent to acquire the Glock he used to shoot her in 2011.

Yes, Loughner acquired his firearm via a background check, as did Jerad and Amanda Miller (Las Vegas), Elliot Rodger (Santa Barbara), Ivan Lopez (Fort Hood 2014), Darion Marcus Aguilar (Maryland mall), Karl Halverson Pierson (Arapahoe High School), Paul Ciancia (LAX), Aaron Alexis (DC Navy Yard), James Holmes (Aurora theater), Nidal Hasan (Fort Hood 2009), among others.

But Giffords and her husband, Mark Kelly, stood with Democrat lawmakers to argue that expanding background checks to include gun show sales is a way of “stopping violence.”

The most prominent firearm-related public violence events of the last few years were carried out by men and women who passed background checks to get their firearms. So can someone explain again how applying background checks to more sales will reduce violence, much less stop it?

This is just one more reason why the new gun control push faces a even steeper climb than the one Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) undertook in 2013. Or, to put as The Washington Post did, “The latest Gabby Giffords push for… gun controls is new. The outlook isn’t.”

Follow AWR Hawkins on Twitter: @AWRHawkins. Reach him directly at awrhawkins@breitbart.com.

It sounds like they are advocating no background checks anywhere. They are opposed to background checks because in the named instances killers went through background checks and still killed.

Does that mean that there has never been a shooting that was not committed because of a background check?

Wow.

That's some twisted, mixed up logic.

Can't find where she actually said, "Everyone should have to pass background check my attacker passed."

She made a statement at a presser regarding a bi-partisan gun background check bill in the House called The Public Safety and Second Amendment Rights Protection Act of 2015, authored and or/sponsored by:

Rep. Peter King (R-NY)
Rep. Mike Thompson (D-CA)
Rep. Michael Fitzpatrick (R-PA)
Rep. Elizabeth Esty (D-CT)
Rep. Patrick Meehan (R-PA)
Rep. Kathleen Rice (D-NY)
Rep. Robert Dold (R-IL)
Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS)

Text of the bill as submitted: https://www.congress.gov/bill/114th-congress/house-bill/1217

Been looking for video of her saying those words and can't find them. I changed an earlier version of this post that had a video from 2013. Here is some video with some of her remarks, don't know if that is the completeness of her statement:

I will say it was a little surprising seeing the amount of hatred for her and the vastness of the conspiracy theory that she is faking and the entire event in Arizona was staged.
