President of the nra. we just saw a clip of him. among the lies he told, he casually referred to the president of the united states as a fake president. what does he mean by that and what else should we know about this new president of the nra? >> the new president of the national rifle association, lawrence, is a man named james porter, attorney from alabama. he is somebody whose father was a president of the nra back in 1959 and '60. that was a time when the national rifle association in fact support gun control. so mr. porter's challenge within the nra is to live up to his father's legacy a...

Of unhinged, but mr. weisser is in good company. my dad was a lifetime member of the nra, a marksman most of his life, owns multiple guns, he resigned his membership recently as well. i don't think they'll be alone. the average nra member sees what's going on in houston and rhetoric is getting further away from what a normal person wants out of gun ownership, which is to be a responsible gun owner. they don't look responsible any more. i look forward to another organization coming forward and also having some sanity from people that know what they're talking about, but want to reach agreement....

Everyone other than police officers, can get any kind of gun and ammunition they want any time they want it. in fact, the nra's mission is to make sure citizens can outgun police officers, make sure we all have access to even more lethal weapons than police officers can use and afford. the psychotic vision of an armed uprising against our government, the uprising that 44% of republicans think might have to happen soon is an uprising against police officers. police officers are the first people those armed republicans and nra members imagine themselves shooting and killing with guns and high ca...
