What a Creep

What a CreepSeason 19, Episode 8Wanye LaPierre and the NRA
Wayne LaPierre is the CEO of the NRA, the National Rifle Association. He’s the man who said the only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun. He’s the man who blames mental illness, video games, and movies every time there’s another mass shooting in this country. He’s the man who made the NRA the powerful lobbying organization it is today. Wayne LaPierre is a greedy, selfish creep who manipulates the public discourse on guns to keep those donation dollars flowing into the NRA.
