Lawrence O’Donnell Grills NRA’s Asa Hutchinson Over Task Force Findings In Heated Interview



Two-part VIDEO here: http://www.mediaite.com/tv/lawrence-odonnell-grills-nras-asa-hutchinson-over-task-force-findings-in-heated-interview/


Lawrence O’Donnell confronted Asa Hutchinson, a former Republican congressman and head of the NRA-backed task force that released a series of recommendations today, over those very recommendations and the bias they come with. Hutchinson maintained that he is independent of the NRA, but O’Donnell repeatedly confronted Hutchinson on his ties to the NRA, the credibility of the report, and the actual efficacy of anything the report has to say.

Couldn't help noticing that he refused to say either "thank you" or "good night" to Lawrence. Something tells me he won't be back...

He points out the ugly fundraising efforts of the NRA (which funded Hutchinsons study).
Corners him on the funding and profit motive surrounding the findings.
Mentions their "more guns" answer to all problems.
Displays their shifting positions.
