First, I'm sorry to hear about your daughter's fiance, Thom. A prevented future is always painful.
Second, unrelatedly, I think it would be a great symbol to prosecute Wayne LaPierre for lying under oath to Congress. The NRA needs some impetus to start telling the truth.

From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"If you wonder why and when giant corporations got the power to reign supreme over us, here’s the story."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann seeks out interesting subjects from such disparate outposts of curiosity that you have to wonder whether or not he uncovered them or they selected him."
From Cracking the Code:
"In Cracking the Code, Thom Hartmann, America’s most popular, informed, and articulate progressive talk show host and political analyst, tells us what makes humans vulnerable to unscrupulous propagandists and what we can do about it. It is essential reading for all Americans who are fed up with right-wing extremists manipulating our minds and politics to promote agendas contrary to our core values and interests."
Since earlier you were suggesting Congressmen wear NASCAR-style patches on their suits to show their "sponsors", I thought I'd show you the picture of Max Baucus I photochopped back in 2009 during the health care wars.
