NRA spokesman Wayne LaPierre is a gigantic liar

No kidding. Earlier this week, Wayne LaPierre wrote a giddily batshit insane column opining that what we need around here is more guns, all the time, everywhere, because you never know when the zombie apocalypse is going to wander off the nearest bus and where will your government be then, hmm? As partial defense of his premise, he used Hurricane Sandy as an example of a situation where people really, really ought to have hauled off and shot some folks:

After Hurricane Sandy, we saw the hellish world that the gun prohibitionists see as their utopia. Looters ran wild in south Brooklyn. There was no food, water or electricity. And if you wanted to walk several miles to get supplies, you better get back before dark, or you might not get home at all.

Anti-gun New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg had already done everything he could to prevent law-abiding New Yorkers from owning guns, and he has made sure that no ordinary citizen will ever be allowed to carry a gun. He even refused to allow the National Guard into the city to restore civil order because Guardsmen carry guns!

See the problem? Yeah, that crap never happened. And local residents are plenty pissed about it:

'He's a f---ing idiot,' said Steven Feinstein, 66, owner of Wilensky Hardware in Coney Island ' one of the neighborhoods that LaPierre claimed Wednesday became a 'hellish world' of apocalyptic violence. 'He makes it sound like it was the 1970s around here. That's nonsense.'

And take that, 1970s. All right, so what about the rest of LaPierre's hellscape? Let's take a look below the fold:
