In other news, three gang-related shootings (two dead) in three diffeerent states have the media stating "nation rocked by three mass shootings on Easter weekend."

So, how do we fight the outright lies, exaggerations and plain stupidity perpetrated on the masses by clueless law enforcement spokespersons and even more clueless reporters? Do we even bother to try?

Nothing new, the media isn’t up to snuff on gun terminology, nor do they care, it’s about going after guns and gun owners.


How do we fight it you ask? Many ways, but whining about it in General won’t help, nor is news on topic, despite having a gun it in.

Come up with a plan? Outline it here in the correct forum and discuss how to achieve it.
