SoCal FReepers/HRF: Let's C(if we see)BiaS

First things first, I have to praise God for an answer to prayer...

 

During the third and final presidential debate, John Kerry, on the topic of the sunsetting of the "assault weapons" ban, said something that made my head want to explode:

"And most of the law enforcement agencies in America wanted that assault weapons ban. They don't want to go into a drug bust and be facing an AK-47.

I was hunting in Iowa last year with a sheriff from one of the counties there, and he pointed to a house in back of us, and said, "See the house over? We just did a drug bust a week earlier, and the guy we arrested had an AK-47 lying on the bed right beside him."

Because of the president's decision today, law enforcement officers will walk into a place that will be more dangerous. Terrorists can now come into America and go to a gun show and, without even a background check, buy an assault weapon today.

And that's what Osama bin Laden's handbook said, because we captured it in Afghanistan. It encouraged them to do it.

So I believe America's less safe." 
 

Now as all informed FReepers know, the AWB had nothing to do with AK-47s. But his statement went unchallenged. And I begged God for a chance to rebut him, though I never thought I'd have the opportunity to do so.

 

Well, CBS 2-Los Angeles isn't nearly the same audience, but by a twist of fate I ended up in their studio against a Million Mom March (sic) rep whose opening statement put forth the same lie -- that machine guns were all of a sudden legal and that basically, because of that and, naturally, Bush, we were all going to die.

 

 

 

Mu-AHAHAHAHA.

 

 

 

Unless they've (shr)edited it...

 

 

 

Because if they haven't cut it, I basically FReeped Kerry and the Brady Bunch! Channel 2, 6:30pm tonight. If they did, I'll need your help, please, to FReep CBS (or, if a miracle did indeed occur, THANK them!).

An "if you're bored this Sunday evening-remote control/TiVo", and possible FReep, ping.

 

xo!

Thanks for the tip, Anna

[Bob J]

Meeting at six, meeting at seven...looks like 6:30 is open!

[AnnaZ]

Are you local?

[AnnaZ]

Two meetings on a Sunday? Don't you rest, man? You poor thing.

 

Anyway, what we're looking for are two 5-5 1/2 minute segments.

 

I'd be amazed if they're intact. We'll see.

Belles Knockout MMM in 2nd Amendment Rematch Sunday, October 24th at 6:30 PM on CBS The Undisputed World Champion of female 2A debate, Anna Z, did not falter in the recent Battle of the "AW" Ban that will air this Sunday on CBS. The contender, co-President of the San Fernando Valley chapter of the "Million Mom March", endured a devastating battle about the "assault weapons" ban sunset. Using a stiff, regimented and basically one-dimensional standup style, the "Mislead Mommies" have become schills in the anti-gun lobby's battle for supremacy. Heart, courage and toughness have always been words affiliated with great champions in debate, but no one in the history of the sport perhaps exemplifies these traits better than Anna Z who fights for our rights to self defense. Wanna see the Mislead Mommies get their bells rung? Tune in to CBS on Sunday, October 24th at 6:30 PM. -- Liberty Belles www.libertybelles.org Putting the Second Amendment first.

[AnnaZ]

Yikes, you mean I have to watch CBS!

I know, I know, and thank you, thank you... sacrifice, the cause, all that.
