USA – (Ammoland.com) “Early reports of shooter at OSU spur look at Ohio gun laws,” Yahoo News declares. “School officials initially reported the incident as a shooting but later stated that ‘injuries include stab wounds, injury by motor vehicle and other injuries that are being evaluated.'”
It wasn’t “school officials” who “initially reported … a shooting,” it was an individual in the administration who made the decision to publicly characterize the incident as an “active shooter” attack before the facts were in. His or her lead is what a predisposed to bias media blindly followed. That individual ought to be identified and remedial processes ought to be either set in place or reinforced to prevent it from happening again, and not just at Ohio State.
And just who is “spurring a look at Ohio gun laws”? In the Yahoo News story, that’s all done by the reporter. Judging by the resulting comments, most readers were quick to call out and condemn such transparent agenda-setting. That’s proof once again, as if we need it, that “red state” America has better sense than assorted gun-grabbing politicians, apparatchiks and celebrities with a media amplifiers. A few quick cases in point:
“GET RID OF GUNS!!!!!!” actor Reginald Watkins tweeted. Yeah, I know: Who? Still, this can be useful to throw back in the faces of liars who say nobody’s talking about taking away your guns.
