NRA Convention Sparks Controversy and Criticism.

Wayne LaPierre, the head of the National Rifle Association (NRA), criticized "woke" district attorneys and the media for "glorifying" mass shooters at the organization's annual convention. He defended the Second Amendment and blamed the press for the nation's ongoing gun violence epidemic. The convention comes after recent mass shootings in Nashville and Louisville, which have renewed calls for gun control from national Democrats. Former President Trump also spoke at the event and received a loud ovation, while his former Vice President Mike Pence was booed by attendees.
