I recently read a story about a sad event but in doing so I have to really question the news media. In this story it speaks of several guns being used, describing them as "high powered handguns and 2 high powered shotguns". I ask you this: Is there any such think as a "Low Powered Handgun or Shotgun". Maybe so, and maybe that is why you dont see people running around killing others with a Shagnasty gun. Dont get me wrong I am deeply bothered by the actions of others... but I am even more disturned by the main stream press. They glamorize and expand the situations so much that I think it actually drives some people to commit such terrible crimes. It is like terrorism: With no media attention and only death awaiting them and with no one even knowing they were gone of what they did, if THIS were what they faced- terrorism would go by the way side. They count on the news and media to hype it up 'round the world for them. That is what they want! Geez. Get with it people.
Hey and while your at it- buy another "High Powered" Shagnasty lab creation and go out and shoot orange foam at someone! Noone dies and we all go home- sans the news stories.
Disclaimer- I think the situations I news storied quote are horrid and dont mean in the least to be little them. Only to rant about the media that drives them.
