MSNBC 10:00 Tonight - Al Roker on Armed in America

[Hazcat]

I kept yelling at the TV "what is an Illegal gun?" (amounge other things ).

No balance from our side, showed full autos like they were common on the streets, interviews were all antis from Chicago and NY, etc. 

One of the worst pieces of 'journalism' I have ever seen!

A few far left states require all firearms to be registered..... The left and of course MSNBC(D) make that a default given in any argument about our 2nd amendment rights

Maybe I'm just over sensitive ... Ok ... I am over sensitive.  However, in my oppinion it did have a more negative spin on it than just getting illegal guns.  A combination of the catch phrases that were used, the sensationalism (especially when Al shot guns, was shown and described a Barrett and a sawed off shotgun,  and when they talked about "armories"), and the open ended questions and statments fed into the anti's platform.

Yer right M58,

They used every scary buzz word and phrase they could.

I tell ya, the pro gun internet folk are buzzing about this one..... do a Google search for "Al Roker Armed in America". All you get for results are the gun forums and gun blogs. They are commenting along the same lines that we are here:

The war on guns has begun, and MSNBC(D) is doing their part to soften up the public for a coming gun ban!




Speaking of an Armed America.... Anyone remember this book:




Its a great pictorial of average Americans and the arms that they keep and bear. You can see some of the pics form the book here:

Go figure, I mean it is Al Roker.  We're talking about someone who's journalistic prowess is stretched by being a glorified weather man.  I don't believe he will ever be in contention for a Pulizer, which makes him fit in perfectly with the rest of the mindless trolls at MSNBC.  Thank God, I didn't know about this program in time to subject myself to the torture that would have been watching it.  That would most definitely have led to a bad case of potty mouth and I hate the taste of soap.
