Cowards. The Conservative Political Action Conference embraces the National Rifle Association as a sponsor, and in 2018, as in every recent year, the NRA’s Wayne LaPierre will speak at CPAC. But:
The details of LaPierre’s appearance were kept off the published schedule as a precaution, sources told the Washington Examiner, amid outrage among anti-gun protesters in the aftermath of the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. Sources said they do not yet know how or whether they plan to announce the timing of LaPierre’s speech in advance.
As a precaution? Against what, a mass shooting by anti-gun protesters? Or is CPAC worried that its attendees will draw terrible publicity by threatening and attacking teen protesters?
Cowards.
