The mainstream media’s contempt for gun owners was on blatant display in an incredibly one-side interview with journalist Katie Couric.
Speaking to Matt Lauer on Today, Couric hawked her new anti-gun documentary Under The Gun, which supposedly looks at the issue of gun ownership from both sides but by the sound of it repeats the same old canards that liberals invoke against firearms owners.
Abandoning any pretense of objectivity, Lauer gushed over Couric and her film throughout the interview, sanctimoniously declaring that he was sure “something” would be done after the Sandy Hook killings and was shocked when no action was taken against guns.
Couric, for her part, indulged Lauer’s sanctimony, weaving a conspiracy theory about the NRA brainwashing it’s members and controlling Congress to prevent anti-gun measures from passing.
But the biggest “WTF” moment of the interview came when Lauer asked Couric about how the documentary handled accounts of people using firearms to defend themselves
See Couric’s absurd answer on the next page:

There presently exist anywhere between 18000 and 20000 laws regulating every aspect of a firearm’s existence – from manufacture, to end use. Firearms are probably the most regulated, the most controlled, the most restricted commodity in this country. It has long been illegal to assault, rape, rob, extort, threaten, or murder another person, no matter the INANIMATE object used to accomplish any of these acts. My question for the nay-sayers, the anti-gun champions, the purveyors of tyranny, is simply this: just what law, specifically, would you propose/enact/enforce that would deter, prevent, or eliminate any CRIMINAL use of a firearm (an INANIMATE object) resulting in the “gun violence” you claim occurs as a result of “lax gun laws”? All that is necessary to understand the rabid efforts to disarm law-abiding American citizen gun owners is to realize that liberal gun control efforts have nothing to do with child safety, nothing to do with public safety, nothing to do with safety of anybody, or anything of the kind. Liberal gun control is about one thing, and one thing only. That one thing is the liberal/socialist’s need to disarm those who would resist, thus impede, their ability to implement the socialist, centralized, big government, cradle to grave, control of people, who, in the liberal elite’s opinion, are not smart enough to make the important decisions necessary to take care of themselves. The only thing preventing obama (and ilk), from imposing their vision of the socialist, sunshine, unicorn, butterfly, and rainbow utopia upon America is that they have been unable to disarm 150-200 million Americans of some many more millions of firearms. Additionally, neither have these socialist elites been successful at dissuading these 150-200 million law-abiding, citizen, firearm owning citizens from standing/fighting/dying for the principles in which they believe.
How about you engage in a little investigative journalism instead of just saying what your paid to say.
I certainly hope you never have to rely on one of those armed good guys. Idiot!
