We know that all the left and the anti's do is lie about the gun issue. If they told the truth they wouldn't have a leg to stand on.

IMHO, the proper reaction to these lies would be to amend the bill to exclude all firearms which are semi-automatic only, as well as accessories and accoutrements designed primarily for such weapons.

On Thursday, the camera showed bullets hitting a cinder-block target as the Broward County detective fired an AK-47 in semiautomatic mode. When the detective fired a legal semiautomatic firearm, the camera showed an undamaged cinder-block target.

A frame by frame analysis showed NO muzzle flashes from the legal semiautomatic firearm. So did CNN pepetrate fraud by showing a gun that fired NO bullets and pretended that it did?

Well, we've long known they lie. It's really fun to watch them being caught AGAIN though. First the gassing story and now this. The liberal media is just starting to get raked over the coals. The country is fed up!

Ken Jenne and CNN.

Actually his correct name is Sheriff Ken-Ken. BTW, I wonder if the Sun-Sentinel here in Ft. Lauderdale will publish something about Sheriff Ken-Ken's part in this fraud.

It's possible they will.

Jenne has done it again, he is a moron who will do anything to get publicity.

Everyone should e-mail the sun slantinel and hint that they should tell the truth about the midget Sheriff. They did a real good job exposing his stupidity and over-zealousness on the gambling ship caper. Better yet call 954-765-4321 Broward Sheriff's ofc and let them know what an embarassment they vontine to be.

Good Evening All-

The media consistently makes so many mistakes about ".357 mm, semi-automatic revolvers" you would think they would get the hint and obtain some firearms education.

It would be comical if it weren't so tragic...
