Nightline co-anchor Terry Moran on Sunday lashed out at the "paranoid," Orwellian theories of gun owners who fear what Barack Obama will do to the Second Amendment. Moran appeared with Republican strategist Karl Rove on This Week and mocked the former Bush aide for denouncing creating a gun registry. After Rove insisted that current gun control proposals wouldn't have stopped the Sandy Hook massacre, Moran sneered, "You're scaring people with this Orwellian sense that black helicopters and the government if we register guns are going to confiscate Americans' guns." He added, "That kind of paranoia fuels" fear.
