枪支是社会动乱的源头,你们大家都不要拥有枪,学我花钱请带枪的保镖就行了。
好强的逻辑啊。

The recent revelation that the head of Media Matters walked the streets of
Washington with a Glock-toting personal assistant acting as a bodyguard may
make it a little awkward for the group the next time it seeks a donation
from a gun control advocacy group.
Media Matters reportedly took more than $400,000 from the Joyce Foundation
specifically earmarked to promote a $600,000 initiative on "gun and public
safety issues." At the same time, Media Matters' gun-guarded boss David
Brock reportedly obsessed over his own security.

"It doesn't look good," said Fraser Seitel, president of Emerald Partners
Communications and a public relations expert who authored the book "
Rethinking Reputation."
"But it is a gray area in terms of public relations. Since (Media Matters)
is so anti-NRA, to have their members packing heat leaves them open to
criticism," he said.
Brock reportedly told confidantes that he feared for his safety and needed
hired guns to keep him safe. The District's gun laws are among the strictest
in the nation, which raises the question of whether Brock's assistant at
times was in violation of its ban on carrying a concealed weapon.
"He had more security than a Third World dictator," one Media Matters
employee told The Daily Caller. Brock's guards rarely left Brock's side and
even accompanied him to his home in a tony Washington neighborhood where
they "stood post" nightly, the source told the DC.
Media Matters proudly claims to be engaged in an information war to bring
down Fox News, and has been exposed as a distributor of liberal talking
points that regularly find their way into the reporting of mainstream media
outlets, according to The Daily Caller.
Officials at the Chicago-based Joyce Foundation did not return repeated
calls for comment. The nonprofit doles out donations to a variety of groups
to address such issues as urban public education, job training, the
environment, and gun violence.
A July 2010 grant of $400,000 to Media Matters was specifically targeted to
support a gun and public safety issue initiative. As part of the initiative,
Media Matters sent a representative, David Holthouse, undercover to a
shooting sports trade show and had him write about the experience.
In a Media Matters article entitled, SHOT Show 2011: "The Second Amendment
Ain't About Duck Hunting," Holthouse wrote that "increased lethality has
become the nicotine of the firearms industry."
"Every year gun makers roll out new lines of assault rifles, tactical
shotguns and handguns that hold even more bullets, or fire even faster, or
boast new gadgetry that supposedly enables their user to kill other human
beings more efficiently than ever before," reads a line from the January
2011 article.
Holthouse previously wrote an article for a Denver publication claiming he
once planned a murder in such detail that he traveled to a neighboring state
to buy a gun with a scratched-off serial number so it could not be traced
back to him. His intended target was someone who attacked him as a child,
forcibly raping him as a 7 year old, according to the article.
The latest revelations about Media Matters has raised questions in
Washington, with some lawmakers in Congress considering opening a
investigation into the group's tax-exempt status, according to reports in
