The 23 October 2015 edition of CBS Evening News actually gave a platform to a pro-gun rights conservative, just four days after it aired a segment from gun control advocate Andy Parker, who attacked the National Rifle Association as a bunch of "cowards" who were "blocking...sensible gun legislation." The segment featured the executive director of the Gun Owners of America, Larry Pratt, who contended that "the problem of mass murder in this country is the gun-free zone." Pratt later underlined that "an armed citizen — a good guy with a gun — is the way you stop a crime."
