On Thursday's MTP Daily on MSNBC, during the show's regular "The Lid" segment, substitute host Katy Tur and her three guests fretted over the failure of gun control advocates to pass any new gun laws in the aftermath of high-profile mass shootings in 2017. Even the lone Republican-leaning panel member -- MSNBC contributor Susan Del Percio -- was coming down on the left-leaning side of the issue as she also seemed unhappy with Congress moving ahead with expanding concealed carry rights nationwide.
Tur began the segment by asking if there were any stories that should have received more media attention in 2017, leading frequent MSNBC guest Eddie Glaude of Princeton University to argue that the recent shootings at Aztec High School in New Mexico should have gotten more coverage to help spur the passage of more gun control. Tur then commented:
Even the mass shootings that did get a lot of focus -- Las Vegas and the one down in Texas -- they were here and then they were gone, and we kept hearing from lawmakers about how now is not the time to talk about gun control and talk about guns. Chuck (Todd) had a, you know, his take on that that went viral, as it should have. When is the time to talk about it if it's not right after it happens? Are we ever really going to talk seriously about gun control?

What, Obama and Podesta's buddies killing off a SC guy just in time to appoint a gun-grabber failed in Merrick Garland? And we had some FReeper going "Hey this guy is as good as we can get from Obama" --- beware cheese-eating surrender monkey trolls.

... leading frequent MSNBC guest Eddie Glaude of Princeton University to argue that the recent shootings at Aztec High School in New Mexico should have gotten more coverage to help spur the passage of more gun control. And therein lies the problem with "news" outlets like MSNBC. The news media is supposed to cover events and report facts; they are not supposed to be focusing on any one particular story for the purpose of "spur[ring] the passage" of legislation.

That figures. Bob Tur obviously went over the edge. One can only speculate why; I have my guesses.

Are we ever really going to talk seriously about gun control? I talk seriously about gun control all the time. I am always looking for advice on ways to improve my marksmanship.

Wouldn’t it have been more appropriate for Bob/Katy/ObamaTransgender/Zoey Tur to threaten to hit Ben Shapiro with his/her/its purse? LOL

Friend claims rotate it about 5 to 10 degrees away from your dominant hand. IOW, if you’re right-handed rotate counter-clockwise 5 to 10 degrees (not much mind you).
If left-handed, rotate 5 or 10 degrees clockwise. I haven’t tried it - ammo is too expensive for me and I get little range time these days. When I do go, it’s still quite good enough for what I train for.

Yes it is. But now, an Obama/Satan World fruitcake. In earlier times:
Hope Bob can regain his sanity and come clean about what a lie the whole thing is.
