Media Reminds Gun Owners
What They Really Think Of Us
By Tom Knighton. January 20, 2020
The media is not our friend. We all know that, of course, but it's important to be reminded from time to time just how much they absolutely despise us.
Lobby Day in Richmond is an annual occurrence. It's a thing that happens regularly anyway. Yet with the push for gun control by Governor Ralph Northam and the clown troop that passes for a legislature calling the shots, gun owners felt obliged to make it a point to be present.
Unfortunately, as science fiction author Larry Niven once wrote, "No cause is so noble that it won't attract fuggheads." Ours is certainly not exempt. Some fuggheads have decided to try and attach themselves to our community.
We can say we don't want them, and we have, but that doesn't mean they won't still try and latch on.
It's a problem any movement is going to have, unfortunately.
The bigger problem, though, is the media latching onto that and making damn sure everyone paints us with the exact same brush.
..... 
In case any reminder is needed, the media, (being for most part an arm of the left), painted the Virginia Rally on 1/20/20 with the usual "White Supremacist", "White Nationalist" or "racist" labels. It is this kind of bias towards gun owners and the Second Amendment that makes it ever more critical to take all measures to not 'feed the beast', and remain at all times cognisant of the need to demonstrate responsibility and be on guard against provocateurs.
