The Illuminati is real, and it's everywhere.

“President Obama “strongly” supports the renewal of the assault weapons ban and would back new gun legislation, the White House said Tuesday.

“He is actively supportive of, for example, Sen. [Dianne] Feinstein’s stated intent to revive a piece of legislation that would reinstate the assault weapons ban,” White House press secretary Jay Carney said during his daily briefing. On Monday, Carney would only say that the president supports the return of the ban.

Carney also offered some other gun laws Obama would back. “He supports and would support legislation that addresses the problem of the so-called gun show loophole, and there are other elements of gun legislation that he could support … high capacity ammunition clips, for example. That is certainly something he would be interested in looking at,” he said.

WASHINGTON — The National Rifle Association on Tuesday said it was prepared to offer “meaningful contributions” to ensure that events such as the massacre of 20 children and 6 adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., “never happen again.”

The NRA said it planned to hold a major news conference on Friday, but did not say what it would announce.

The statement from the nation’s largest pro-gun lobbying group was issued to members of the media after four days of total silence following the mass murder. During that time, the NRA has become a focal point for criticism from those who support stronger gun control laws. Members of Congress have said they plan to propose new laws on the first day of the next session of Congress in January.

National Rifle Association of America is made up of four million moms and dads, sons and daughters –- and we were shocked, saddened and heartbroken by the news of the horrific and senseless murders in Newtown.

Out of respect for the families, and as a matter of common decency, we have given time for mourning, prayer and a full investigation of the facts before commenting.

The NRA is prepared to offer meaningful contributions to help make sure this never happens again.

The NRA is planning to hold a major news conference in the Washington, DC area on Friday, December 21.

It wasn’t immediately clear what meaningful contributions the NRA plans.

But there may be some clues in the group’s responses to prior mass shootings. In early 2011, following the mass shooting in Tucson, Ariz., that nearly killed former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, NRA chief executive Wayne LaPierre said the debate about how to prevent future gun massacres should focus on preventing the mentally ill from acquiring weapons.

“It shouldn’t be a dialogue about guns; it really should be a dialogue about dangerous people,” LaPierre told The New York Times. But at the time, the NRA was unwilling to have any dialogue at all with the Obama White House, a decision LaPierre justified to the Times by saying, “Why should I or the NRA go sit down with a group of people that have spent a lifetime trying to destroy the Second Amendment in the United States?”

This time, however, LaPierre might have little choice. In the wake of the tragedy in Newtown, members of Congress — including some with solidly pro-gun voting records — have shown a renewed resolve to pass gun control legislation, including potentially banning assault weapons, as well as passing laws to limit the sale of high-capacity magazines.

Chief among them is West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin, whose support for gun rights earned him an “A” rating from the NRA. Manchin said Monday that “everything should be on the table” for discussion. He added that he wants to “call all our friends in the NRA and sit down and have this [discussion and] bring them into it. They have to be at the table.”

Fourth mass shooting in 5 weeks: Shooter opens fire outside Empire State Building
August 24, 2012

New York City officials say a laid-off women’s accessories designer shot and killed a co-worker outside the Empire State Building, then got in a shootout with police.

Fifty-six-year-old Jeffrey Johnson opened fire with a .45-caliber pistol at about 9 a.m. Friday on the Fifth Avenue side of the building. He was shot dead by police.

Nine others were hit by gunfire. Mayor Michael Bloomberg said that some of the victims may have been hit by police bullets. The victims are expected to survive.

Johnson was laid off about a year ago from a company housed in the Empire State Building.

Crowds of tourists and people on their way to work gathered along 34th Street, which was shut down by police. Police helicopters buzzed overhead and swarms of officers were gathered around the crime scene.

Queens resident Rebecca Fox, 27, said she saw people running down the street and initially thought it was a celebrity sighting, but then saw a woman shot in the foot and a man dead on the ground.

“I was scared and shocked and literally shaking,” she said. She said police seemed to appear in seconds. “It was like CSI, but it was real.”

Hassam Cissa, 22, of the Bronx, said he saw two bodies on the ground, and police applying a white cloth to a man’s stomach wound.

Gunshots so close to one of the city’s leading tourist attractions immediately prompted fears of terrorism, but federal officials said that wasn’t the case, and a guard at skyscraper said it didn’t involve the parts of the building where tourists gather to visit the skyscraper.

The gunfire came less than two weeks after a knife-wielding man was shot dead by police near another tourist-saturated part of the city. Authorities say police shot 51-year-old Darrius Kennedy after he lunged at officers with a kitchen knife Aug. 12. Kennedy was smoking marijuana in Times Square on a Saturday afternoon when officers first approached, police said. It was the beginning of an encounter that would stretch for seven crowded blocks.

In 1997, a gunman opened fire on the 86th floor observation deck of the Empire State Building, killing one tourist and wounding six others before fatally shooting himself.

That’s right… the fourth mass shooting in the US in the past five weeks. 

(WXYZ) - Seven people have been killed in a shooting at a Sikh Temple in Oak Creek, Wisconsin.

One of the dead is confirmed to be the shooter.

Police say 3 people, including a police officer, have been injured.

The police chief says they are treating the incident as a case of domestic terrorism and that both the FBI and the ATF are investigating.

Police say a 911 call came in reporting a possible shooting at the temple at around 10:25 a.m. CDT.

A police officer responded and was shot multiple times. The officer was able to return fire, shooting and, in the words of police, putting the suspect down.

The officer was taken to the hospital and is expected to survive. He is described as a 20-year veteran with tactical experience.

Police say several dozen people were in the temple at the time of the shooting, getting ready for a service.

One local hospital told CNN they have received three patients from the scene. All three are men suffering from gunshot wounds to the face and extremities. They are all in critical condition.

Of the 7 people who died, four of them were killed inside the building. Three others, including the gunman, are outside.

Oak Creek is located about 20 miles south of Downtown Milwaukee. Another Sikh temple is located in nearby Brookfield, Wisconsin. Police were dispatched to that temple as a precaution following the shootings at the Oak Creek temple.
