Here’s some photojournalism from CBS News’ Robert Costa, who managed to sneak a camera into the super-secret NRA annual meeting in Houston and take photos of some of the guns on display at manufacturers’ booths. This conference took place only hundreds of miles away from the site of the Uvalde school shooting.

Looks like a great convention.

It looks very instructive and safe for attendees exercising their civil rights.

How dare people continue to want to defend themselves after some psychopath killed innocent people.
You’d think the public’s response to a mass murder would be to make themselves more vulnerable. https://t.co/izm6vqbULr

More journalists have committed mass shootings than NRA members. This fixation is just weird but you guys have your marching orders. https://t.co/OlSKkl9Q0Q

This doesn’t sound fascist at all:
Which companies are making these advertising displays? Which companies are providing credit card processing for customers? Investigate and name every piece of the supply chain.

I hope the Feds have counter-terrorism agents there to take note of the people who spend a lot of time and money at the assault rifle, high-capacity magazine and body armor booths. https://t.co/1EDFMslDzG

The feds, as usual, would be looking in the wrong place for a school shooter. These are NRA members.
