QOTD: "Law-abiding gun owners will not accept blame for the acts of violent or deranged criminals. Nor do we believe the government should dictate what we can lawfully own and use to protect our families.

...we need to be honest about what works and what does not work. Proposals that would only serve to burden the law-abiding have failed in the past and will fail in the future.

Semi-automatic firearms have been around for over 100 years. They are among the most popular guns made for hunting, target shooting and self-defense. Despite this fact, Congress banned the manufacture and sale of hundreds of semi-automatic firearms and magazines from 1994 to 2004. Independent studies, including a study from the Clinton Justice Department, proved that ban had no impact on lowering crime.

And when it comes to the issue of background checks, let’s be honest – background checks will never be “universal” – because criminals will never submit to them." --Wayne LaPierre

Once again, our award goes to "excellence" in NOT reporting a major story. Senator Bob Menendez (D-NJ) has a hooker scandal, and the story is not good enough for MSNBC, "The Place for Politics"?

Yep, the White House really does run things in the media, as your recent illustration showed.

How do you not mention at all the hooker scandal surrounding a Democratic senator?
