“That it undermined his thesis and rendered the column incoherent isn’t really our problem, is it?”

Oh that is hilarious... he lied on the form, stamped his feet about them discriminating against him for being a reporter, and basically forced the store to publicly reveal he is a lying, drunken wife beater.

Journalists are a “protected class” in a great many ways. They are part of the new nobility. It includes all media, law enforcement, judges, politicians...

From the article:

“he didn’t lie on the form”

It only asked about convictions. He has none.

Anybody's wife could take him.

I'm guessing his "wife" is a fellow poofter.

He believed that the rubes at the gun store were illiterate rubes who could not master computer searches if they tried.

“Later, the gun store sent Steinberg’s newspaper a statement, which read in part: “it was uncovered that Mr. Steinberg has an admitted history of alcohol abuse, and a charge for domestic battery involving his wife.” ‘

BOOOOOOOOOMM!

I have never bought a gun (and not many) other than from someone I know as a personal purchase. I have never used a gun illegally, nor to the best of my knowledge has any weapon I’ve owned been used in any illegal act.

We said that in the mid 70s to mid 80s, too. The good ones catch on.

Steinberg insisted it was because he’s a reporter. “[H]ating the media is right behind hating the government as a pastime for many gun owners,” he writes. “They damn you for being ignorant then hide when you try to find out.”


Later, the gun store sent Steinberg’s newspaper a statement, which read in part: “it was uncovered that Mr. Steinberg has an admitted history of alcohol abuse, and a charge for domestic battery involving his wife.”


Hating drunken cowardly b*sr*rd media whose idea of manhood is beating women and then cry like a b*tch when a man grabs them by the throat is right behind hating the government as a pastime for many gun owners,”

I like this picture better, gives more of a peek into his drunken,
wife-beating side while masquerading as a journalist ...

He will have to go on Oprah, cry, and admit that his book was a fabrication. A work of sensationalized fiction manufactured to sell more books. He learned how to do it from his newspaper’s publisher.

He WAS denied his constitutional right to keep and bear arms. This slippery slope of "gun control" is working as planned - people just want quicker action where only government bureaucrats are allowed to purchase a firearm
