“Mother Jones” reporter Andy Kroll joins our special Power Panel — Cenk plus Michael Shure, Ana Kasparian and Stephanie Miller — to talk about the NRA and its role in passing the Stand Your Ground law in Florida.
“The NRA provided tens of thousands of dollars to the dozens of lawmakers who pushed the bill through,” Kroll says. An NRA lobbyist even helped write the law. “It was lobbying, it was money, it was pressure — it was a classic case study of how the NRA gets these bills passed at the state level, and now it comes back to roost in the Trayvon Martin case.”
