Intersting AWB Read from MSN
This may not be anything new, but at least it sounds, for the most part, positive for us. The author writes, in a nutshell, that while there is a desire to impose another AWB by the administration, their is little to no political wind behind the sails.
Do I trust these folks? Nah. Do I think they know gun control is political suicide? Yes. Perhaps the idea is finally sinking in, and our voices are being heard. Thoughts? Observations? Factual errors? http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/30389664 Quote:

This doesn't even begin to pass the smell test. Quote:
If we DID have the resources for more agents, why in the dickens would we focus those resources on contraband LEAVING the country, when we haven't made the slightest dent in contraband ENTERING the country. So how about we first concern ourselves with the ability of terrorists to bring weapons IN? The ability of this administration and these agencies to turn logic and common sense on it's head seems to have no bounds. |

So, let's see - the number of FFLs drops from 284,000 to 60,201; but the problem is that ATF doesn't have enough inspectors, having only increased from the 764 doing the job in 1990 to the 771 in 2009. Sounds like more shoddy reporting to me... do reporters even question the crap they are told or do they just reprint it like some kind of dictation machine? |

Well I tried to share this information on MSNBC's "Newsvine"; but that has to be the worst Internet discussion forum I've ever seen - and that includes the mid-1990s attempts.

B. Roberts,
a new day is approaching, what you are presently seeing is a self destructing blob called the main stream media...it is biased, uninformed, and just plain bad(just like our gov).... over the last decade i decided to turn it off and and really listen to what real people have to say... it always sounds different then what is portrayed by some idiot behind a suit on tv... i cant watch it any more... cheers |

The NYT and the Minneapolis Star Tribune, both lefty, anti gun newspapers, are struggling financially. There is a reason for it. People don't have to accept the tripe these media dinosaurs are serving anymore. We have lots of other sources where we can get objective and more accurate reporting.
