OK. If I hear one more Ad Council anti-gun propaganda pitch I’m going to shoot my radio! (Hear that WJR?!)
Whiny six-year-old: “Mom, Dad, if you store you guns properly… I’ll feel safer.”
Solemn male voice: “If you own a gun you have a full-time responsibility. Always, lock it up”
The patronizing tone of this spot – brought to you (ironically) by the National Crime Prevention Council and the progressive Ad Council – implies that your home is safer without guns than with them.
Another head-banger:
“I heard on the news, I heard on the news, I heard on the news…;” an annoying chorus of adolescent voices with a litany of made-up tragedies involving a gun. This ad is also admonishing adults to keep the youngsters safe from those nasty guns.
Unfortunately these anti-gun organizations and their young brain-washed spokespeople never hear on the news about lives that are saved, the crimes that are foiled, because a responsible citizen was armed and alert. Maybe they should visit sites like the (evil 👿 ) NRA and Gun Watch (You know, the groups that don’t get free air time to counter the gun-control folks).
Recent stories on Gun Watch include:

Three or four events like these – where the bad guy loses thanks to a law-abiding citizen with a gun – occur daily across the country. But somehow the troubled youth on the public service commercials never hear these stories on the news…
Selective reporting is a favorite “weapon” in the progressives’ anti-gun arsenal. And right now they’re taking aim at the Second Amendment.
