More liberal media bias - but gun owners respond

Post by CCFan »

Roanoke.com has an article about the upcoming gubernatorial candidates stance on guns in bars - and like normal, the piece is a hack job...

Nice thing about this, his blog was open for discussion- and lots of people chimed in...

I posted too. I wonder how loud Mr Casey would squeal if his 1A rights were infringed.

Liberals, for the most part, are anti gun. Where is the mystery here?

Gun toting smilies would all get our kids expelled from school.

Next thing we will all have to disarm our smilies on our web forums! :packin: :pistol: :ak47: :machinegun: :tommygun: :fireleft: :fireright:

From the blog page (About this blog):

"Dan Casey knows a little bit about a lot of things but not a heck of a lot about most things. That doesn't keep him from writing about them, however."

Now we know why he has such a misinformed view of things.

You've got to be kidding. That is simply unbelievable. Is that information a matter of public record?

Edit: Yup, I don't believe it. I searched the archives and the article announcing it is there bigger than life. The have since removed the database. Jerks - for posting it to begin with.

The Times published all the names (including mine) in the state.
Then they showed proof it was legal.

What they failed to do was take into account many legal gun owners,
doctors, lawyers, law enforcement, govt folk and more didn’t like it.
When law abiding citizens stopped buying the paper by the 100’s or 1000’s. they got the message.
That and the fact that employees of the paper had names, addresses and even photos popping up all over the web, legally.

Somethign else they failed to think of. Beaten and battered women, even ones that the ex husbands tryed to kill were on that list. Some of which had been in hiding and moved several times to hid the verry information that this retarded paper posted. I surely can say one thing. Never again will I buy their paper.

EDIT I knew i'd find it.
