 Here's the most contentious exchange: 

LAPIERRE: The President's kids are safe, and we're all thankful for that. 

WALLACE: They also face a threat that most people do not face. 

LAPIERRE: Tell that to the people in Newtown! Tell that to the people in Newtown. 

WALLACE: Do you really think that the President's children are the same kind of target as every schoolchild in America? I think that's ridiculous, and you know it, sir. 

Wallace pressed LaPierre on whether he believes every schoolchild is entitled to armed protection. He also challenged the NRA chief on the gaps in that theory: How they're not protected at the movie theater, the mall, and other places after they leave school. 

LaPierre stumbled, saying, "Which is why we need to do everything else I'm talking about." 

The last contentious exchange came when Wallace disputed LaPierre's logic that only "elite, out of touch" politicians have armed protection next to them. Wallace pointed out that LaPierre also traveled with armed guards to his appearance on "Fox News Sunday." 

"Does that make you an elite, and out-of-touch elite, because you have security?" Wallace said.

Wow! You know if you can't even expect soft ball questions at Fox News, that is when you KNOW the country has turned against you on this issue.

My hat is off to Chris Wallace for holding this douchebag's feet to the fire.
