More BS from the Media

In a WSJ article on the prospect of a new AWB we get this gem.

"Unlicensed dealers, such as those at gun shows, may sell semiautomatic assault rifles to anyone of any age without conducting a background check."

The quote gives the impression that "unlicensed dealers" (I.E. private citizens) can sell AR's and AK's to 12 year old kids.  The really scary thing is that the majority of people will take this kind of crap spewed by the MSM at face value.  They assume it's true even when the media lies.

I went to a gun show last weekend and it was more crowded than I had ever seen before. People are waking up.

Yeah, you wouldn't believe the one Falnfenix and I went to in PA in February. Barely enough room to walk around.

This could be the beginning of the turn around to where the fourth estate actually serves our best interests again, instead of pandering news to us in order to collect interest.

little unclear in that last comment- I mean if people keep waking up the media will HAVE to start serving our interests again.

At the very least, the media will become Pravda - whatever they print, assume the opposite to be true and in the vast majority of cases you'll be right...

Agreed Jay - Best to treat them like politicians. Assume they're lying until proven otherwise.
