Origins of Fast and Furious story important for media to get right
What the true origins of this story prove, and what those ignoring or subverting it don’t wish recognized, is that this stands as an undeniable example that establishment media no longer holds exclusive information gatekeeper status. The dinosaurs have noticed the small, furry, egg-eating mammals darting and scrambling about their lumbering feet. [More]Today's second Gun Rights Examiner report reiterates a record that is important to state accurately, not as a matter of credit, even though that's a legitimate concern, but as a milestone marker of as-yet unknown significance.
CBS intentionally violated posted gun show rules in phony undercover stunt
Had CBS 5 wished to discuss bullet buttons or any other fallout from California’s ridiculous and ineffective anti-gun edicts, there would have been no shortage of resources ready and willing to meet them face-to-face and provide their audience with informed guidance. The entire “undercover” rationale was unjustified from the beginning, designed to create the illusion that viewers were being provided a straight news exposé by hard-boiled reporters, instead of by mob-inciting “Authorized Journalist” hacks with plenty of agenda but not much in the way of respect for traditional ethics and canons of journalism. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report follows up on a covert anti-gun activist operation posing as "news."

Point Noted and Understood
In response to my new GUNS Magazine piece:
It is my understanding from the Heller trial that the finding of individual right was 9/0. The court in turn used that as basis for a 5/4 decision to overturn DC’s gun ban regulationsYes, and look what four of the Justices were willing to cede passed "individual rights"-recognizing muster. Dan's post-Heller proposals seem consistent with their worldview. As for his pre-Heller wishlist, who knows what natural or man-made event would be disastrous enough to exploit as justification for "national security" measures along those lines? Or alternately, who knows what critical mass of the electorate is enough to let those who would rule drop all pretenses and do anything they wish?

Anyone familiar with the law there who can give an authoritative interpretation of this, please chime in and educate us.
