Regarding scandals and politicians I say a great amount of resources would be spent to cover anything up. Or people just forget about it when their favorite politician tells the masses to "move on". Like with Benghazi.
I am still curious as to why Hillary lied about what happened. It's like she was wanting to protect the jihadists...?
Back to guns. I got my CCDW license a couple years ago and the instructor mentioned several incidents where people used their guns to stop shootings but it never makes it further than the local newspaper.
And regarding the lie that only men cares about guns. The guys in my CCDW class was outnumbered by the ladies.
And with all the gun owners in across the nation you know there has to be some cases where mass shootings were stopped. But no one was killed, or at least no innocent person, and that would be portraying guns in a good way.
And the leftites don't like that, it threatens their socialist wet dream.
Cue the NPC Meme: "SCARY GUN BAD!"
