    is it just me or is it that they seam to be finding anything gun related and making it news. The shooting where the kid killed 5 of his family with a 22 but people are reporting he used an assult rifle of good measure. Now a shooting between 2 people. Not a massicre like they keep saying.... It is getting rediculous. The media needs to stop reporting the names of the attackers when things like these happen alot of people are out for the fame of it. Getting there 15 mins worth anyway they can. I just hope things blow over with the gun stuff.

    Just doesn't seem fair. There are people who've killed using a knife, a car, their bare hands, a 2X4 and a baseball bat and they can't even get arrested, let alone covered by the news. What more do they need to do, to get some attention?!

    I agree, Benesse. But the media wants to keep playing on people's heartstrings to get a gun ban going. So much for looking at actual statistics...

    I posted the other day about an accidental shotgun discharge at the Raleigh, NC gun show. DA declined to prosecute since no laws were broken and it was an accident. People hurt can still sue the guy, though. Point here is that some jerk reporter had the DA on the radio and was purposely trying as hard as he could to get the DA to condem the poor smuck who fired the gun. The DA didn't go along with the game. Thank goodness for one sane DA!

    It's also pretty irritating that the media reports on gun-related deaths but not other wrongful and unnatural deaths that happen more frequently, such as car crashes, choking, or say.... heart-disease? Gun deaths are a drop in the bucket of ways that people can die, and yet people focus on it so intensely. What a pain.
