The media’s pro-gun-control bias doesn’t just distort news coverage. TV networks have used their primetime entertainment shows to portray gun rights advocates as dishonest, extremist and unconcerned about the loss of innocent lives. At the same time, advocates of gun control are portrayed as caring, upstanding and responsible citizens. |

I'm proud to say that I didn't even recognize the titles of any of the shows mentioned in Lott's article.
I might have a lot of wasted time in my life, but none of it is as wasteful as watching TV network propaganda. |

The tv shows reviewed in this article show tv characters expressing some fantasmagorically IGNORANT and STUPID remarks about guns and especially gun free zones, usually by people whose real-life counterparts would know better.
The original MacGyver was gun phobic as well. This is not new.
I think I may have seen one episode of the new reboot. Lame. Lame. Lame. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
