More from Race card hate monger (citation at end of this post) and political activist Tom Brokaw. "Just call them racist," said Journolist

"Brokaw: Silence On Gun Violence Akin To Failing To Oppose Segregation in 60s," NewsBusters, Mark Finkelstein
"Talk about your strained analogies . . . Tom Brokaw has analogized
people unwilling support measures aimed at limiting gun violence to
those during the 1960s who were unwilling to speak out againt the likes
of Bull Connor.
Brokaw made his remarks on today's Morning Joe. While
asserting that he favored a "holistic" approach to gun violence,
including addressing video games and the coarsening of the culture, Brokaw did remark that "guns are the endgame." View the video after the jump.
There was no real moral ambiguity surrounding segregation. It was a
undeniable evil. But that same Manichean divide does not exist when it
comes to issues surrounding gun violence. The desire to limit such
violence competes with authentic, legitimate concerns about First and
Second Amendment rights. For Brokaw to conflate the two issues is
absurd. Watch Brokaw at work."...
BROKAW: "And all these component parts claim it's not their
responsibility. NRA says it's not about the guns. It's about violence.
It's about mental health. Mental health people say we can't share
information because we have privacy issues here. The video game industry
says we have a right under the First Amendment. Reverend Al, it
reminds me a lot of what happened in the South in the 1960s during the
civil rights movement. Good people stayed in their houses and didn't
speak up when there was carnage in the streets and the total violation
of a fundamental rights of African-Americans as they marched in Selma,
and they let Bull Connor and the redneck elements of the South and the
Klan take over their culture in effect and become of face of
it. And now a lot of people who I know who grew up during that time have
deep regrets about not speaking out. There were a few brave souls who
did and they were knocked down pretty hard within their own communities
for coming out and speaking out in a moderate way, not even in a liberal
way about the right of African-Americans to be able to vote, for
example, and to walk into any restaurant they wanted to. But there was a
lot of silence at the time. Now it's time for the people who do have
strong feelings, who are feeling that they can't do anything about it,
to kind of band together and have something to say here. And again, it's
got to be the whole approach.""
