Cincinnati TV does a total hack piece on the AR15

[SEIndSAM]

Wow.....Did you know that it's not an accurate weapon??? It's just meant for destruction...
Christopher Lee Cornell: AR-15 rifle bought by local terror suspect was used in Sandy Hook massacre - Story

About the only reasonable thing I heard in that report was the A.R. 15 is a tool and should be treated properly.

My fault. They must have seen me at the range and just assumed it was the rifle.

 

[1911ly]

I feel so ashamed that I own a couple of these evil mass murdering weapons. The horror!!

 

[yepthatsme]

Next they will be criminalizing 12 gauge shotguns since it's possible for a person to send 54 projectiles down range with just six shots. I'm really surprised that the media hasn't already been condemning them as well.

Charging hammer?

yes iagree with you

ok

What a total hack job, by a total hack.

If a rifle is inaccurate, it's just a mass murder, spray-and-pray machine. If a rifle is too accurate, it's just a mass murder, sniper weapon. There's no winning with these know-nothings.

What's a charging hammer?

"To hit your target, you have to have some ability as a marksmen," That applies to just about anything, from an AR to a G19 to an 870 to a crossbow.

"It would be sort of the choice for someone who wanted to do ... the 'spray and pray,'" local terror expert Ed Bridgeman told 9 On Your Side Thursday.
How does one go about attaining "local terror expert" certification? Seriously, how?

I've heard it's what they use to power up the INGO Ban Hammer

I knew it was going to be this channel when I read the thread title. I am in the Cincy TV market, and they're idiots.

I have to wonder what kind of certification is required to call your self a "local terror expert" (maybe watching CNN). I know that to call yourself a "journalist" requires only a desire to blow it out your ass at will. This would almost be amusing but for the fact that lots of people will read this crap and believe every word.

to be fair, I wouldn't be surprised if the guys at target world gave a very accurate account of what an AR15 can be used for for licit purposes, but since it didn't fit the reporter's agenda, he didn't use it. notice the lack of screen time for any talking gun store employees. this is all around bad reporting. Mr. Bridgeman was awarded all the screen time of any people interviewed, which would be ok in a story about Ed Bridgeman. Since this was supposed to focus on the gun used, there should have been interviews with hunters (AR-15 is legal for hunting in OH I think)... Also, the claim that an AR-15 is not an effective sniping weapon is dubious at best. How many of you have good groups at 500 yards?

apparently be an associate professor of criminal justice at the Cincy equivalent of IU Kokomo. He is a former DHS instructor, according to their website. Click here to see a picture of him smiling in the wreckage of a car bomb...

Looking at other stories this guy has weighed in on, he's an attention-seeker. he does these stories just to see his own face on TV.

Someone needs to publish a book of the worst gun reporting.
