Rant away. You'll get no argument from me on the subject. A guy I worked with strangled his mother-in-law to death and the local news made a point of telling the public how many guns he had in his house. What !@#$%^&* difference did it make? He had a certain number of guns but didn't use any of them, so what's the point of everyone knowing? How many hands he had was relevant to the case. How many guns he owned was not.

That's what you get with stupidity and irrational fear. These media dolts feel that the mere presence of a firearm is an indication of some guilt, and that the owner is automatically up to no good.
In some of their feeble minds it was the guns that made the guy strangle his mom.

Yep. The guns must have had some sort of physic power over the weak minded individual that corrupted him to the DARK SIDE!

I get so tired of that crap!

Look at the public school system....  Biting a Pop Tart to resemble a gun or making a "gun" by pointing your fingers and any other  action remotely associated with firearms earns instant discipline...the only way they could improve on this conditioning is if they devised a way to administer severe electric shocks the instant someone had a gun related thougt.

There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."

I guess it depends upon your administration... I had a SOPMOD M4 Block I poster on my wall for three or four years... I got several favorable comments from parents during open house... around Sept 14, 2001 I received an e-mail from SSgt Kyle Lamb (SFOD-D) with the illustration of the eagle sharpening its talons... it remained on my wall until my retirement in 2009

Yep. They don't call it fake news for nothing. And when they don't fake it outright, they exaggerate. This story is what I refer to as non-news.
