Two days the massacre, the USA's powerful pro-gun organisation has yet to make any kind statement the tragedy that has shaken America. The mass murder 20 innocent children a gunman seems to have stunned the NRA silence. The "Huffington Post" writes about the NRA's disappearance social media sites since the tragedy, saying: "The NRA has disappeared both Twitter and Facebook since the events that occurred Friday."

The NRA announced Facebook the day the killings that it had accumulated 1.7 million fans. The organization's Facebook page has now completely vanished.
