I didn't find this already posted- So rarely do we see positive commentary on guns I felt this deserved a thread. I would have liked to see Fox give this more prominence. Maybe we can email and get them to do a more in-depth story rather than just run an opinion piece.

Thanks for posting this. I sent it on to a fellow at work, years ago he and I were debating this subject and I told him: you never hear about the defensive use of guns.
Now, this man is very smart, very well educated (Fordham Law) but as with so many, he is a slave to the NY Times editorial page. All the natural sceptiscism (sp?!?!?!) seems to go down the tubes when confronted with the arrogant opinioneering of the Times, etc.
I told him to make sure he reads the whole piece, hopefully it will open his Northeastern-liberal eyes a bit.
Happy New Year!

As a couple of reporters told me, journalists are uncomfortable printing such positive gun stories because they worry that it will encourage children to get access to guns.Maybe they ought to try to be actual JOURNALIST and REPORT THE NEWS instead of having an AGENDA!
That's a novel idea.

There are two books out that address the problem presented by the media: First read: "Bias" by Bernard Goldberg and then read: "Arrogance" by the same author. They explain all! BTW, the author is a self professed liberal and has been completely vilified by his own kind and he put in 23 years as a reporter for CBS News. This is the first time I ever heard a liberal say: "I would never own a gun, but I am NOT anti-gun." The NRA did a full interview of him in one of their magazines recently, I think it was "America's First Freedom" magazine.

This excellent article is drawn from Lott's excellent new book, which I highly recommend.
