News Bias. Homicide or Self-Defense?
Wow. DON’T FOLLOW THESE LINKS YET, but, GunPundit found a beauty of a story. over at MSNBC.
Here is the first part of the story… Read this first.
2 suspects dead, 2 injured after 72-year-old opens fire in New York City
NEW YORK – The sidewalk outside the Harlem store still was smeared with blood Friday, and the glass on the door still was blown out.
Above the entrance, someone had scribbled the words, “Abandon hope all ye who enter here.”
Less than 24 hours after a deadly showdown at the shop worthy of a Clint Eastwood script, Charles “Gus” Augusto Jr. entered his store — oblivious of the inscription taken from Dante’s “Inferno.”
We all learned in pre-jr. high that the first 3 paragraphs pretty much tell the story. What do you think the horrible details are in this tragedy? Form an idea in your mind. Then read the story at MSNBC and Gunpundit’s analysis of it. Now ask, what do you know of your world and how much of what you know is shaped and decided by media bias. Reporting is truly dead.
For that matter. NY is really becoming a great place to live. Consider the story.
- criminals (armed) come in demanding money
- criminals pistol whip an employee
- 72 year old(!) owner uses shotgun in defense
- community in outrage
- shotgun was confiscated (illegal no doubt)
GunPundit has this right…
“If the bad guys had pistol-whipped everyone and gotten away clean with a few bucks, there would have been little or no new coverage. Little or no hand-wringing over “a sad day.” Little or no “mixed reaction.” Criminals pull this shit all the time every day.“
[...] Regarding the story we posted about the 72 year old that shot at 4 suspects during an attack. [...]
