Let’s see Holder spin this as a minor misunderstanding instead.

The media is trying their darnedest!

"According to the Washington Post, 'A security guard at the Family Research Council was shot and wounded Wednesday morning after a scuffle with a man who expressed disagreement with the group’s conservative views.'"

Note the passive voice, "was shot and wounded," as if bullets just happened to be flying around. And the terms "scuffle" and "disagreement." Pathetic. And predictable.

I can do better than that:

"According to the Washington Post, a sentry at the headquarters of a right-wing hate group calling themselves the Family "Research Council" was superficially wounded by a bullet fired from a gun obtained legally under laws supported by the NRA, another right-wing hate group, after confronting a man who mentioned he had a difference of opinion."

Hire me MSM!!!
