I have a proposal.....
FIRE any journalist who talks about automatic weapons during a shooting when no automatic weapon was present.
Wow, are people clueless about just the basic facts of a story.

5. Agreed
|
I was watching MSNBC today (Melissa Harris-Perry) and all of her guest knew ZERO about firearms. One of the guests was talking about how the James Holmes had a "magazine that held a 100 clips". These people are embarrassing themselves every time they speak about firearms.
Most of the guests looked like they'd cry and wet themselves if they ever touched a firearm. |

15. I agree,
|
it is also annoying that law enforcement and media keep referring to the 'assault rifle' used in this terrible shooting.
The AR-15, of course, is not an assault rifle. |
