Showing again that when he is not hosting the Tonight Show he is something
of a mensch, Jay Leno cancelled an upcoming gig in Las Vegas for the NFFS,
which is a gun lobby based in Newtown, CT. True, Leno only cancelled after
gun control groups in Newtown criticized him and started a petition drive,
but he does seem to have gotten the point, telling Mother Jones:

“I understand it’s Newtown, and of course I get it. It’s just, sometimes,
mistakes get made.”
