The slanted reporting is nothing new. The media will tell a story about someone caught with an automatic firearm and 500 rounds of ammunition. Turns out the firearm was a semi auto Mossberg .22 (lower quality) and the ammo was a Federal Value Pack (common amount) with 550 rounds. Both available at any Canadian Tire or Walmart. The person caught was a dangerous rancher out popping gophers. Happens everyday, but who wants to read about a rancher shooting gophers when you can imagine something far worse. Nothing in the media is the truth it`s all spun to the editors and owners sense of values. The best part about the internet is you can get on it and begin to see through the lies in the mainstream media.
What I`m saying is an agency of the goverment charged someone with something. They then skewed the story to the media, the media further skewed it to the public. Now the guy has been convicted in the court of public opinion, and by some of his peers on here, pretty sad really. I haven`t heard a word from him or his lawyers. Seems pretty one sided to me. I`ve never met the guy and assume he`s done nothing wrong,he just made someone mad and they brought the wrath of the government down on him.
Has there been a defense fund set up for him(question mark, kids wrecked keyboard).
It`s going to be a long battle.
Bring on the flames.
