Bang / Guns Title: Broadcast Networks Push An Anti-Gun Agenda After Vegas Shooting ABC, CBS, and NBC gave five times more airtime to pushing gun control than they did supporting gun rights after the Las Vegas mass shooting, according to a new study. The Media Research Center analyzed all of the statements about guns the three broadcast networks carried between Oct. 2 and Oct. 8. In just six days, the networks managed to favor gun control over gun rights by a 5:1 ratio. Between the anchors, reporters, guests and soundbites, the three networks used 30 minutes and 17 seconds to argue in favor of gun control and used just 6 minutes and 27 seconds to favor gun rights. Outside of overall arguments for or against gun control, the networks also spent a whopping 28 minutes and 30 seconds pushing for regulation of bump stocks. One minute and 47 seconds were given to those opposed to additional regulations on bump stocks. Combining their words on general firearm use and bump stocks, ABC, CBS, and NBC spent just short of an hour across the six day period arguing for some form of gun regulation. On “NBC Nightly News,” anchor Tom Brokaw went hard after the National Rifle Association and encouraged viewers to “speak up” against the gun rights organization. “I would say to this audience, and any audience before which I appear these days, we are where we are because of the power of people who wanted these kinds of guns. And the NRA managed to organize them and get them as a political force in America,” Brokaw said. “We’re a long way away from that Second Amendment in which we said that a militia is important to our country….I think that we have to step up, all of us, and speak up.” On ABC’s “Good Morning America,” George Stephanopoulos trashed the White House for “stop[ping] any debate about gun control before it begins,” while his coanchor Robin Roberts praised late night comedian Jimmy Kimmel for “taking a big stand on gun control.” Overall, NBC was the biggest gun grabber, managing a 10:1 ratio of gun control vs. gun rights. CBS came in second with an approximately 4:1 ratio, and ABC trailed with a close to 3:1 ratio.

It's a LOT easier than actually going out of the offices and tracking down actual news stories,and it keeps the money rolling in. Just look at what they did with the racist blacks attacking Confederate monuments and white people. They turned it around 180 degrees,and made it about slavery,the Klan,and redneck,racist,gun-loving whites. It's who they are and what they do. In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments. #2. To: sneakypete (#1) Given how many times they've lost with their gungrabbing agenda, you'd think they would realize it makes it harder to elect Dims in Red or Purple states. The Dims had plenty of votes when Pelosi was Speaker and had a bunch of Blue Dog "conservative" Dems in her caucus. The Dems had 60 votes in the Senate at the same time. Yet they never came close to trying for any gun bans at the time. And at the same time, 0bama's BATFE refused to ban or regulate bump-fire stocks and trigger gloves and other cheat devices to achieve nearly full-auto fire from semiautomatic weapons. So how is this the GOP's fault? The Dems refused steadfastly to do anything when they had a large House majority, 60 votes in the Senate, 0bama in the WH and a good chance to bamfoozle and flatter Anthony Kennedy on the Court. They could have done anything. Yet they chose to do...nothing.

Communists/One-Worlders ALWAYS play the long game. Yeah,the rank and file would have to double their awareness to reach the level of retard,but the leadership understand that if they just come right out and say what their goals are that the entire membership could meet in a travel trailer. In other words,they aren't trying to indoctrinate or influence the thinking class. They are enrolling the moron masses too lazy to think for themselves,and stupid enough they really DO believe everybody will work hard to support THEM,and THEY won't have to work or contribute to live the "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous". The Second Tier are the ones just "normal stupid" that see themselves in secure life-time jobs as overseers that supervise the moron masses,and who dish out favors or punishments without question from above,depending on who who blows them and who doesn't. Communism has been enforced on different nations at bayonet point since 1917,and has NEVER WORKED YET,but there are still idiots who are convinced it will work THIS TIME. There is one born every minute. In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments. #4. To: sneakypete (#3) Communism has been enforced on different nations at bayonet point since 1917,and has NEVER WORKED YET,but there are still idiots who are convinced it will work THIS TIME. THE problem: The PTB have been aiding, abetting and enabling the radical elements to do their thang. We even witnessed the Alinsky-in-Chief and his minions lighting of many a divisive fire for his entire eight years. WITH IMPUNITY. The MSM encouraged it as well. Thus The Left's anarchy continues unabated. Opponents of their anarchy are immediately slandered as "KKK" and "Hitler." This serves to create more kindling for the further nationwide spread of unchecked militant Commies, aka Antifa and BLM mischief. You know this is the End Game of the Elites' as well: "Out of chaos, order."
#5. To: sneakypete (#3) Communists/One-Worlders ALWAYS play the long game. They well can afford to, given they now own and control the message and conditioned response through the Academe, the "News" Media, "Entertainment" Media, and Gubmint. Don't you think the Elites/One Worlders are using the Commie-Socialist-Anarchists-Muzzies-Third World Invasions as jackhammers with which to create chaos? ("Out of chaos, order"?) These Elites will retain their power but need to destroy the old system in order to rebuild it from scratch.
