CBS is in a full-court press for gun control on its evening entertainment television shows. The bad guys are always white supremacists who use machine guns — supposedly AR-15s — to commit mass public shootings. Criminals in Mexico supposedly get machine guns from the United States. A father’s desire to protect his family only leads to tragedy when his daughter gets into the gun safe and uses the weapon in a mass public shooting. And guns in the home pose a danger for children. Gun registration is necessary for solving crime.
NBC isn’t to be left out, showing a woman who tried but failed to use a gun to protect herself. Instead, her gun was taken from her and used to kill a police officer. The lesson is that owning a gun will only bring you grief.
And that’s just in the first six weeks of the year. Every show gives an inaccurate impression about firearms, thereby helping in this push for gun restrictions. It’s as though these shows were written by Michael Bloomberg’s gun control organizations. Indeed, the networks are working with these groups. A member of Moms Demand Action recently wrote a Washington Post op-ed headlined: “Guns are white supremacy’s deadliest weapon. We must disarm hate.” So it isn’t too surprising that show after show portrays neo-Nazis using machine guns to commit mass public shootings. CBS’s “SWAT,” “FBI: Most Wanted,” “FBI,” and” Bull” all push this theme. They often refer explicitly to these guns as AR-15s. Others, such as “Magnum PI” and “NCIS LA,” constantly show criminals using machine guns. . . . .

I stopped watching the network trash years ago. This crap is for simple minded Liberals.
Bingo.
Still, we should be aware of what is going on, and this puts
it out there.
I don’t watch ANY of this prime time crap from the major networks.
I’ve been offered showrunner positions for big shows but I turned them down after talking with the producers on where the show will be going and what topics. Most of them are as expected, lefty crap. I’ve met hundreds of episode producers from Baywatch to X Files and they wont do it today with this type of woke culture.
If you have half a brain you see right through the agenda. But that’s the point. These storytellers are dealing with halfwits.
I seen the same thing happen years ago with the series 24. It went from islamic terrorism to russian spys here in America. Almost as if they were preempting their dossier against Trump.
They don’t call it “ the boob-tube “ for nuthin’.
Sloe Joe gave us the “Safe Schools Act” which turned every US school into a sitting duck zone aka “Gun-Free Zone”.
Nothing new. You should have seen the vile anti-gun TV, movie scripts and so-called “documentaries” along with news programs shown from 1969-1990.
It’s been that way for years. I can only imagine how bad it’s gotten since I stopped watching.
Learning and discussion with the Internet is good, but we should also be debunking and ridiculing that propaganda in our own communities.
Two murders by automatic weapons in the USA since 1930, did you catch that part?
The AR-15 does shoot the same ammunition that the fully automatic M-16 does as does the wooden stocked semi-auto Ruger mini-14 and many other semi automatic rifles that are on the market.
The media loves to use the term, “high powered rifle” in conjunction with the AR-15. Well, that is an outright lie.
The 5.56 or 223 Remington round is not even legal to use for hunting on deer sized game in most states because it is considered to be under powered.
This cartridges lack of impact energy and lethal terminal energy is exactly why the US military is currently migrating away from the 5.56 and toward a cartridge with more energy.
Every sport, boats, cars, airplanes and even shoes change and get better as time goes on and progress is made it those areas of engineering.
It is exactly the same for firearms. The AR-15 is a modern sporting rifle that works better and easier than many of its predecessors.
Then there are those who say that the AR has to go because it has a common history with military rifles. Yes it does have that connection but so does ever single shot, pump action, bolt action and lever action rifle ever sold. The style of all of these actions started in military rifles. This easily provable fact is not something the anti gunners want to talk about.
The FBI keeps track of all firearms homicides and assaults that happens in our nation every year and those statistics are actually published in their online data banks.
There are separate categories for hand guns and long guns but not for modern sporting rifles alone. The AR platform rifles are lumped in with all long rifles and shotguns and even muzzle loaders.
That entire group of all long guns, rifles shotguns ect, account for less than three percent of all firearms homicides and assaults every year in the entire USA.
So the next time you hear the anti gun zealots blowing smoke make sure they don’t get away with blowing it your direction.
When they start telling these lies call them on it publicly. Call them on their lies, call them loudly and keep it up until they can’t stand it and start calling you names then call them on that too.
Always remember that the gun control zealots can not make their case with truth and fact. They will always push emotional based passion centered in outright lies.

Yes, we need to know our enemies... how they think, how they
act, what their instincts are.
“ Others, such as “Magnum PI” and....”
Actually, Magnum, the new one, has lots of great guns. Rick has a whole trunk full of really nice ones.

Here’s the list for Season 3, but the first two seasons are also fun.
I still own a TV. It has been sitting in a storage locker since the Obamanation. The culture sucks and the left has been working overtime to make sure we see nothing else.
Sadly even Blue Bloods is starting to lean left. Not sure if Tom S. will tolerate it much longer.
GUN CONTROL IS BEING ABLE TO HIT YOUR TARGET
