Salon Misses The Point On Sales Surges Following Mass Shooting Incidents

I don’t expect the people at Salon to understand much about guns. Most of them wouldn’t know the difference between fully-auto or semi-auto if it jumped up on their face and wiggled. Yet, as a large-ish news outlet, I do expect them to try and figure out just what is going on before they write something and not just pay lip service to things.

As Tom Knighton said:

“The truth is that I considered buying one of these stocks the moment I read Feinstein’s bill, and I have zero interest in bump-fire. I also have zero interest in the government telling me what I can and can’t buy for my firearms. It’s just that simple, and I’m not alone in that.”

The point on gun sales increasing after the shooting in Las Vegas is a very simple one.

Instead of the Democrat/liberal espoused “duck, hide, RUN!”, it is “STAND AND DELIVER!”
(For those who live in Rio Linda, that means SHOOT BACK!!)

Now that the types of firearms used by the crazed guy are known, OF COURSE, those are the types flying off the shelves, to stand and deliver, IN KIND.

Both of the readers at Salon are also idiots.

It's somewhat the closest thing we "deplorables" have to a tangible "push-back" right now. The leftists have the media to show what they're doing.
We have those reports that may possibly be an educational study if they cared to pay attention.

I've seen the look in their eyes when they come walking around a gun show after the ticket booth has closed and they can get in for free.
Kindof resembles what I refer to as "Darwin moment". d;^)
