ORIGINAL TITLE: "Weapons Of Mass Destruction: A Plague of Small Arms" ------- This anti-gun fanatic's hit piece starts with a blatant lie. It was written by Rebecca Peters, director of the International Action Network on Small Arms (IANSA). For clarity's sake, IANSA is based in the "United Kingdom". Here's the whopper:"Ten people died from the sniper's bullets in the Washington area. In the same three-week period, 1,600 people died from gunfire in the United States generally, and more than 17,000 around the world." If that were true -- it isn't -- that would mean there was an average of 533 firearms-related deaths in the U.S. during each those three weeks. If this lying British gun prohibitionist thinks the mainstream media wouldn't be falling all over themselves to report such unbelievable numbers, she's even more insane than her nation's policy of imprisoning a farmer for shooting a burglar.
Email this liar at IANSA.
Send a letter to the editor of the International Herald Tribune for having published such an overt lie. |
