Michael Moore: 'NRA Is Doomed' As Result Of Sandy Hook Incident

Michael Moore said the NRA is doomed as a result of the deadly Newtown, Conn. school shootings.

In his interview with the Huffington Post last Friday, the award-winning movie director and gun control advocate said the Sandy Hook incident was a "tipping point."

Michael Moore: 'NRA Is Doomed'

"I think the mood of the country is not changed. People did not forget about this after Christmas. In fact, after Christmas when parents started taking their kids back to school and dropping them off in the morning, they couldn't get this out of their heads," Moore said.

He added: "That is the worst. That's the thing that, the NRA, they are doomed as a result of this, because every day now, every parent that drops their kid off at school or sends them out to the bus stop or whatever can’t help but think, you know, worry, 'What if I don’t see my child later?'"

But according to the U.S. National Rifle Association, it welcomed 250,000 new members the month following the Dec. 14 school shootings. NRA's membership growth announcement was reported on the Huffington Post website barely two weeks ago but apparently didn't come up during Moore's interview.

"You know, we're never gonna get rid of crazy people," Moore continued. "They've been around for thousands of years, they'll continue to be around, they'll continue to do horrible things. But why are we their enablers? That's the crazy part."
