Denver Post Columnist highlights two anti-gun TV shows
October 6, 2009 | Tagged Mainstream Media bias | 1 Comment
Today, Denver Post Columnist Joanne Ostrow, in an article entitled “Programs set sights on gun culture,” advertises two upcoming anti-gun rights television programs. The article appears on Page 1D of the paper. The first show, tonight at 7PM on HDNet World Report, Channel 664 on Comcast, is entitled “Resurgence of the American Militia.” This piece, as the title implies, focuses on the “true believers” in the Militia Movement.
The second program, “Lock and Load,” will air at 7 PM on October 21st on Showtime. This one takes viewers to The Shootist gun store and indoor shooting range in Englewood, Colorado. ”Lock and Load” is a six-part attempt at “reality TV.” Each episode will last one-half hour and portray patrons and transactions at the Englewood shop.
Both pieces will undoubtedly be condescending and dismissive with regard to gun owners and fear mongering with regard to all normal Americans who aren’t part of the “Gun Culture.” The militia show “…may make you more than a tad nervous.” The Shootist series is promoted as “scary in a different way…” One of the patrons of the gun shop featured in the series is an “over-weight and put-upon husband” who plays well into the Left-wing stereotype of gun owners as fat white men seeking manhood in the ownership of firearms.
Stay alert! Given the Obama Administration’s appointment of numerous anti-gun Czars and Cabinet Members, these programs could be more than just entertainment. Mainstream Media documentaries have an odd way of correlating themselves with government attacks on the rights of American Citizens to armed self-defense against crime, tyranny, and genocide.
Of course, I could just be paranoid. After all, I’m a veteran who supports the Second Amendment. Oh Gosh! I’d better watch myself! I could be one of those people.

I don’t blame Obama for his inappropriate “shout out” or using the shooting to advance his political agenda. Or going to Camp David instead of Fort Hood… I blame the Amercan people who voted him into office and giving him the power to do so.
