From my fair city:
http://www.wdtn.com/dpp/news/fbi-threats-made-to-blow-up-the-va
I'm starting to see a trend to anti-gun attitude by the media of this station specifically. A few weeks back, a guy caught a thief trying to break into his home and shot the bad guy. The homeowner wasn't charged, the thief was. Yet, in the coverage of this story, WDTN-TV's anchor started her report with the common anti-gun tirade "Man takes law into his own hands."
This story is even more troubling. They "found" a "rocket launcher" that had been thrown into a dumpster, the person who "found" it called police. They raided him home and found , horrors of horrors, 2 "assault weapons" and ammunition. Then they kept pounding on the "alleged plot to attack" to VA.
Never mind that the "rocket launcher" didn't have that "rocket thingy."
So, I guess it's either time to educate our local media, or to hunker down for a long fight to preserve our rights. Maybe I'll invite the anchor out to the range to go shooting my "assault weapon" Stag L-1 semi-auto carbine.
