Last Friday, anti-Semitic thugs attacked a Jewish family, yelling “Free Palestine!,” “Die Jew!” “F– you Jew,” and “I’m gonna rape your wife.” Fortunately, an armed driver was able to stand between the attackers and the family. You may not hear about many of these stories, but they occur all the time. And there are dozens of cases in recent years where concealed handgun permit holders have stopped what police say would have been mass public shootings. Those would make gripping stories.
But don’t ever expect to see gripping stories like this on entertainment television. For years network television, ABC, CBS, NBC, and Fox, refuse to show even a single successful defensive gun use by a civilian. You would surely never know that people successfully use guns defensively some 2 million times a year.
Instead, defensive gun use is shown to always goes wrong. Either the citizen ends up being murdered by the criminal without hurting any of the criminals, accidentally shoots a loved one, or is a danger to themselves and the police. And this bias has been going on for years across all the networks.
Just take some examples so far this year.
NBC’s Chicago PD, Season 8, Episode 14, May 12, 2021: A homeowner tries to use a gun defensively to stop a home robbery and ends up being shot by one of the robbers.

Propaganda TV Shows Keep Pushing Lies About Guns
Remember accuracy in reporting.
There are some people who simply cannot separate fantasy from reality. Some are right here on FR, who read fantasy which was imagined in someone’s mind and convert the fantasy into reality.
Case in point: The show “Law and Order” which proclaimed, “Ripped from the headlines”. However, the storyline NEVER followed the truth. It was fantasy. Only the headline was ‘ripped trom the headlines’. People here claimed that it was “real”. Nothing could convince them that the fantasy was fantasy,
The tv shows always have people being shot by guns for decades. The movies are no different. The socialists are the ones that want the guns and not you to have them to defend against them!
Colt match is
One of my
Dream pistols,
Ahhhhh!
And a glock semi auto always takes them out. Not to be argumentative but those guys fire off a pickup load of ammo and rarely hit anyone.
GOD created MEN and WOMEN; but it was actually COLONEL COLT who made them EQUAL
Jack Lord PLAYED a tough cop on Hawaii Five-O, in actuality he was just another HOLLWEIRD PUSSY reading words other people wrote!
