Fox News reported that guns actually STOP more crime that they CREATE!!! And they even went on to say that the media never reports how often guns are used in self defense.

They made reference to a study (cant remember which) that guns are 4 times more likely to stop a crime than to cause one.

Of course all of us here know that, I'm just in shock that someone actually reported it!!!

Hopefully, other stations will catch on. This could be a VERY good thing for us!!!

FOX News has been doing this type of reporting for quite some time.  It's theonly breath of fresh air on that damn boob tube these days.

Send FOX a quick email thanking them for their good reporting.

Did they mention that those glock revolvers stop the most crime of all?

The study they were referring to was the one done by Professor John Lott and pooh-poohed by all the gun-grabbers.

heh, no.  I believe it is the automatic lever action assult submachine gun which stops most crimes.

Or the semi automatic bolt action revolver pump machine gun lever single shot pistols that I bet my life on.

We all really have to give FoxNews credit for what they have done.  They are about the only national broadcast news organization that is even remotely objective.  We need to support their courageous stance on this issue.  We need to tell them that we appreciate what they are doing.

This is exactly what we must do to show our appreciation for the media that does tell the whole story.

Is it important that we let those who don't tell it all know that we don't like it.... YES!

Is it even more important that we let those who do - know that we appreciate it.... YES AGAIN!

Think what kind of taste it will leave in thier mouth when they get hundreds or thousands of letters and e-mails thanking them for a job well done...
