Guys this is one of the problems we have. Once a statement hits the media, audio, video or print, a certain percentage of people are going to adopt that statement as correct and proper. The media loves it, especially if it involves a controversial subject like gun control (bans). Sensationalism sells advertisement. I deal with the media some in my line of work...try to tell them something good or positive...they don't want to hear it.
The anti-gunners get a free ride every time, they get air time from any negative aspect of gun ownership. Have you ever seen them cover a scouting or 4-H marksmanship event? Do you see any of the shooting events in the olympics?
And tell me HOW when the media does interview a gun owner... it's ALWAYS bubba!!!!!!!!!!!!
