Very soon after his daughter was blown away by a gunner, live on morning television, he said he thought gun apologists should be "shamed" into making changes.

I heard that and started jumping up and down with joy. Literally. That is EXACTLY what we need to do at this point. They need to be NAMED. And they need to be SHAMED. The public needs to know who they are and how fiercely they stand in the way and refuse even to discuss things. They need to be dragged out into the proverbial public square.

NAME 'em and SHAME 'em.

I still want to know which Congressmembers refused to meet with the grieving Newtown parents awhile back.

NAME 'em and SHAME THEM, TOO.
