Downplaying?

An armed student at Jerusalem’s Mercaz Haray seminary played a crucial role in stopping a gun-wielding terrorist Thursday, but the American press is downplaying his heroism because it proves that armed students can stop campus gunmen, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms said today.

Who'da thunk "Authorized Journalists" would insert their agenda into their work? Or require people outside their controlled circle to purchase a press release in order to get a word in edgewise...?

Clay has more.

If you relied on NPR, you'd never know the armed student had even existed.

For the lady that covered Mr. Horsley's trial, I sent her a nice email about checking out the student that stopped the yeshiva attack. I of course haven't heard anything back...

On our local radio, we have a talk show that has a lawyer come on every Friday. He even said that the shooting stopped once the student shot back. It's not that people don't get it. They get it. They just still don't want us to be armed. It's not stupidity, it's... what's the word... their way or the highway.

Evil, the word is evil.

Gun control is not about guns, it's about control.
