Stop Handgun Violence Founder on New York Attorney General Suit to Dissolve the National Rifle Association
Boston – In response to the lawsuit by New York Attorney General Letitia James to dissolve the National Rifle Association, Stop Handgun Violence founder, John Rosenthal, made the following statement:
“For over 25 years, I have been fighting against the NRA to pass even the most minimal gun violence prevention laws, while over 750,000 Americans have died due to preventable gun violence. I would like to see them go to jail for the blood on their hands, but I am happy to see that they will be held accountable for the many-years-long pattern of self-enrichment at the expense of their members and hundreds of thousands of American lives.”
