    Default Journalist says "OMG Glock used in recent spree shootings!"

    Just noticed this in Yahoo News (Reuters):

    Handgun type used on Sikhs is mass shooting weapon of choice - Yahoo! News

    The author seems to think a Glock is a weapon of mass destruction rather than the most popular handgun in the US. I particularly like how he quotes the Brady Bunch's talking points without any opposing views. You should expect better from Reuters.

    I love how he mentions right in the beginning this shooter used a Springfield 9mm (I assume XD) yet Glock stillgets brought up a myriad of times.

    Just verbage to line us up for no handguns, only bolt action rifles and shotguns. Things for hunting. That's what they want.
    At age 21, I did two things: Stopped wearing underwear and started carrying a gun. The combination has enabled me to remain calm in even the most stressful of situations.

    Semiautomatic handguns are the weapon of choice for mass murderers because they are light and easy to conceal, and adaptable to using high-capacity magazines, experts say.



    ​Oh...I thought it was "assault rifles." I forget which made up bit of nonsense we are supposed to hate...
