Oh, Yeah. Hand gun against AK-47. Right.
How about getting rid of all guns?


That's what they thought they were doing at Virginia Tech. It was a
"Gun-Free Zone"

There was another school in Virginia that wasn't a "Gun-Free Zone".
No deaths, gun-weilding, law-abiding cirizens held criminal gunman for
police. Very few papers mentioned the fact that he was held by armed
citizens, only that citizens held him for police. With that kind of
coverage, its no wonder people don't understand the value of an armed
populace.


IMO,that sort of omission is intentional.
I've seen an Associated Press article in several news sources,and all
but one edited the article to omit the pro-gun part.

(amazing that AP would have some pro-gun stuff in one of their reports!)
