Sen. Cruz Plans to Speak at NRA Convention in Houston Friday, Abbott Will Not Attend But Will Make Address by Taped Video |
The NRA said in a statement on its website, “Our deepest sympathies are with the families and victims involved in this horrific and evil crime. On behalf of our members, we salute the courage of school officials, first responders and others who offered their support and services. Although an investigation is underway and facts are still emerging, we recognize this was the act of a lone, deranged criminal.
”“We are seeing way too many of these horrific mass murders,” said Cruz."You know, inevitably when there's a murder of this kind, you see politicians try to politicize it. You see Democrats and a lot of folks in the media whose immediate solution is to try to restrict the constitutional rights of law-abiding citizens. That does not work,” said Cruz earlier in the week.“For him to say that we are going after law-abiding gun owners, this has nothing to do with law-abiding gun owners.
