Maybe he is smiling because the shooting are on the back pages (page count does put it on page 7 as noted above) and thus we are becoming complacent about guns and that makes him happy.
My offer, which you have failed to respond to on two separate occasions, still stand. For every legit story you can produce of someone “defending themself” with a gun I will offer you two of people being killed by guns in the hands of fools or felons.
I have noticed that too. It’s often which team is ahead in front pages. It seems like too many papers are avoiding what the REAL News is. Is bad news hard to sell? Do Americans like to be ostrichs?
The NRA wrote the “Stand Your Ground” Law for the legislator who introduced it,……..ALEC distributed NRA legislation to all 50 states, of which 26 statehouses adopted the “Stand Your Ground”-type and styled laws, and Trayvon Martin’s shooter, George Zimmerman, carried out the law to show that citizens had the right to shoot-down unarmed citizens, simply because the law, and those like it, place the burden of proof on the one who is shot in the absence of witnesses and without being able to testify in his own defense and not contest the motive. Since 2005, the “Stand Your Ground” law has given permission to Fla. citizens to shoot down 65 other citizens in cold blood. Why was Florida’s prior law for self-defense replaced by the “Stand Your Ground” Law and why cannot it be re-emplimented to improve the safety, care and integrity and vigilance of defenseless citizens against citizens carrying weapons or having concealed weapons on them ?
