Fox News' Geraldo Rivera tore into the National Rifle Association after Wednesday's shooting in San Bernardino, California, that left at least 14 dead and 17 injured.
"The NRA is full of shit," Rivera tweeted shortly after the shooting.
Rivera, a frequent critic of President Barack Obama, praised the president for his repeated calls for gun reform.
"POTUS wrong re [sic] so much," Rivera wrote. "But he's so right re gun violence."

POTUS wrong re so much-like loyalty toward double dealing Turkey-But he's so right re gun violence-More than 1 gun for every American? Why?

14 Dead!! Terror in America. This is our future if we don't act. Determine motive. Why attack innocents? Who are the perps?

The NRA is full of shit

"find locate and apprehend the suspects" then tear out their eyeballs and take their long guns and shove them up their asses

If really 3 shooters, then this is a severe escalation of mass violence in USA. My hunch is there is 1 shooter who inflicted horrible mayhem

The scum attacked a facility for disabled children

This is terrorism. Make no mistake regardless of the identity or race or the ethnicity of the killer(s) this is Terrorism.This is our future

Bravo California cops take down the terrorist scum just hours after savage murders of innocents. That's the message. Don't tread on us.
— Geraldo Rivera (@GeraldoRivera) December 2, 2015
The key now is for us to be as outraged by San Bernadino massacre as we would be if Muslim extremists were doing the killing. This is terror
— Geraldo Rivera (@GeraldoRivera) December 2, 2015
Rivera has criticized the gun lobby after other mass shootings, including the Oct. 1 college shooting in Oregon that left ten dead.
"The mass murder at Umpqua again reveals we are a gun sick nation," Rivera said in a Facebook post. "All the 2nd Amendment bullshit aside, the gun lobby controls the country, and allows armed maniacal lunatics to roam free and kill."
