It may be the first such local story we've printed or known of - and that was because the chief of police there wisely brought it to public attention.

Wouldn't it be nice if such positive uses of a gun were given more press? We ought to require papers to validate stories such as this and then run it somewhere on either the front or back of every paper in town.

Where do they (news outlets) get the impression that part of their mission is to keep people in the dark? I thought their purpose was to shed light on events, both good and bad.

When guns are put to good use and it's not reported, it is a violation of the trust we hold in them and perhaps, by pointing this out, they'll see things differently in the future. Otherwise, they remain nothing more than an agenda driven rag or television show whose credibility is their biggest liability.

Sales of papers down? Ratings on your "TheNewsComesFirst" show down? People want news, raw and accurate--not agenda driven, PC crap. How refreshing it would be to tune into a news show that actually put the 'news first'.

This is an email I sent to Ralph Weller of GunNewsDaily.com

Ralph,

When are you and the rest of the good journalists going to start including the words "United Nations" and "New World Order" in your pieces about gun control? I continually ask myself, "Do they even know where the push is coming from? Do they know who is at the top of the push? Why are they afraid of putting out all the facts?"

I'd appreciate a long answer if you have the time. Tell me what is going on in your industry and why those words are forbidden by the Chief Editor of Gun News Daily, the Owners or whomever has the last word on whether you'll have a job tomorrow should you tell the whole story.

Until now I have thought that someone in probably, the advertising department, and probably a strong Democrat doesn't want to see an anti-UN statement. Would this cause a cash flow problem? Is someone afraid of outside powers should you bring out the facts or is their a concern that gun owners aren't sophisticated enough to handle an anti UN sentence.

Sincerely,
xxxxx xxxxx
