Filmmaker Michael Moore wrote on his blog on Wednesday that releasing photos from the Sandy Hook elementary school shooting will help tip public offenders to "cease support to the National Rifle Association." In "America, You Must Not Look Away (How to Finish Off the NRA),"  Moore recommended how releasing gruesome photos of the 20 children massacred on December 14, 2012 will prove that the weapons used by gunman Adam Lanzer should never have been on the market in the first place. His blog also sought to underscore how "out of step" the NRA really is, highlighting outdated claims of gun-owner rights.

Some of the elementary students were shot up to 11 times, and Moore predicted that by making the pictures public available (before they are potentially leaked) will help to incite such negativity toward the NRA, so that they may never be able to recover from the backlash.

Moore likens this era to when Emmett Till, the 14-year-old African American boy from Chicago was murdered. Till was brutaly killed by white supremacists in 1955 just for "flirting" with a white woman. At his funeral, Till's mother requested an open casket so that lawmakers could see what the assailants had done to her son. The visceral reaction was so powerful that it help to set in motion the birth of the Civil Rights Movement.

"Moore predicted a parent of a child killed in the horrific elementary school massacre or another high-profile mass shooting would make pictures available, adding "and then nothing about guns in this country will ever be the same again," Fox News reported.

In the weeks following the school shooting, several parents spoke out on the gun debate, with many saying the shootings cried out for new gun control laws and others saying such measures were not the answer. 

Moore won an Oscar for Bowling for Columbine, the documentary exposing America's poisonous affinity with guns.
