Media brazenly promotes Wisconsin murderer

Nov. 23, 2004

Alan Korwin

On the same day a madman killed five human beings in a Wisconsin hunting incident, doctors, many near you, killed 270 human beings, by mistake.
 
Another 270 people died, many near you, because hospitals and their staff aren't kept clean enough. The Associated Press repeatedly confirms 100,000 dead every year, from each cause.
 
So 540 people died that day, needlessly, some horribly, some by the same doctors, some right near you.
 
On the same day five people were murdered, 540 other people were killed nationwide. The Wisconsin murderer, thousands of miles away, is in the headlines, non-stop. The innocent 540 who woke up dead that day got deafening silence -- no mentions, at all, anywhere.
 
So what? The media's use of this madman and others like him works to set public policy they want. It's not a conspiracy, they just all do it. It's why they're known as the pack media.
 
This killer they like so much used a rifle -- not an infected scalpel -- so the saturation coverage draws the anti-rights bigots out to holler, and gain momentum, while our cherished medical community gets away with murder. Policy instigated by a homicidal maniac, now there's a plan.
 
The next time you hear about a murder or ten, 2,000 miles away from your home, you remember that on that same day, 540 people died, some near you, because doctors made mistakes and hospitals give people lethal infections.
 
And recognize that the murder stories these vicious editors and reporters bring you are straight propaganda. A murder a thousand miles away is not news.
 
They want you to hate guns (like they do), depend (like they do) on the authorities (who rarely draw their guns, and usually just draw chalk lines). They want to vilify and attack our nation's right to be armed and defend ourselves -- the right those murder victims sorely needed.
 
If the media's goal, as they would have you believe, is to keep us safer, then the repeat-offender doctors would be on page one. When they keep the Wisconsin murderer on page one for a week, they only make us feel helpless. What's wrong with these people?
 
Five dead, days ago, or 540 dead today, again. Where do you think the focus should be -- right away -- if the goal was public safety and not the biased agenda of control, and government supremacy, from our hopelessly monolithic free press.
 
"Gun-Free Zones"
 
A similar outrageous situation ocurred a while ago, at the University of Arizona, where three students were murdered in a gun-free zone. Defenseless students were killed by a psychopath, and the news media promoted the killer for weeks. Isn't it time we recognized that:
 
1 - Gun-free zones are dangerous;
2 - Gun-free zones don't protect you;
3 - Gun-free zones don't effect murderers.
 
Shouldn't there be some sort of liability for a place that recklessly leaves you defenseless, especially if the authorities know such an occurrence is possible or even likely?
 
We so easily accept gun-free zones that we overlook how such outcomes might have been different had we not cavalierly abandoned a person's right to self defense.
 
I heard U of A president Peter Likins say he was happy the police responded so quickly. Seems to me they were late.
 
What's the point of all the news coverage of heavily armed shock troops running about town, once the horse is gone and there's no barn door.
 
The only people on time were the ones already there, defenseless in the school's fraudulently "safe" gun-free zone. The first person to arrive at a crime scene is always the victim, never forget that.
 
When the avalanche of publicity for such maniacs spawns more, or new gun-free zones somewhere else, you ask yourself this -- would you mind if someone besides the maniac -- like someone decent with training -- had a gun there too?
 
The mainstream media just throws up its collective hands and tells you it's hopeless. Then they feed you non-stop cops with black guns and black masks on TV, and push for some law to ban the guns of everyone who didn't do anything. And demand we write down the names of gun owners on an FBI list, for safety.
