Read this in a CNN article...

Adam Lanza, 20 years old, was armed with a Glock, a Sig Sauer and a rifle like the kind soldiers use in war.

They're not even trying to be suttle anymore. Does this sound ridiculous to anyone else, or is it just me? Seems like they're talking to a child or something.

I think it's called an AK15. It can shoot hundreds of bullets a minute from a 100 bullet clip. It's a high powered automatic assault rifle that is used in war. (Purple intended)

I also saw an article that says 52% of Americans are for strict gun control. What they didn't say is that it was a survey conducted by telephone by 620 participants. I guess 620 people are the majority of American citizens. The surveys margin of error was 4-4.5%

I don't even watch the news anymore. No one can say anything straight, it's all jumbled up.

He used one of those fully automatic high capacity assault clips with the shoulder thingy.

I literally heard Piers Morgan say "These semi autos fire 60 bullets a second" last night. I facepalmed and changed it

They also don't tell you they call locations that are guaranteed to give them the statistics they want, and will repeat the act as many times as necessary until they get the numbers they want. They also just simply lie!

Too bad we can't establish some kind of truth standard for modern journalism.

Noooooo! This would impede the 1st amendment. You know the one higher than the second.

I try so hard to stay contained, but this is killing me.

The news is little more than Infomercials to sell advertising or an agenda.
I put NO faith or trust in the media. They have lost my respect and support.
Polls are subject to the way the questions are asked and are easily manipulated.

Even though I know it is unrealistic, a person can still dream.

I'm with you all the way but I've evolved into a skeptic.
