Miami Herald: 2nd Amendment is 'Mythical Right ' | NewsBusters.org

The Miami (FL) Herald let lose with another propagandistic broadside against the 2nd Amendment on Thursday featuring some more moaning and false statements about how horrible it is for America that the misnamed "assault weapons ban" has lapsed. There is much wringing of hands, waterworks, histrionics and over dramatics by the aptly named Fred Grimm here. In "What's a few dead cops to the gun lobby?" Grimm's final pronouncement is that the 2nd Amendment is a "mythical right" but in between there are many misstatements and out right lies.

Grimm starts out putting on some faux "shock" that a modern "semiautomatic assault rifle" he had the occasion to handle was so light. "The shock was in the weight of the thing. Less than six pounds," Grimm writes. And, what exactly does this mean? A butcher knife weighs less then a pound and can kill, too. What does weight have to do with anything?

The Miami Herald and the Police Chief down there get me so effing mad I can't stand to read or look at any stories that come out of that place any longer.

The Miami Herald and the Police Chief down there get me so effing mad I can't stand to read or look at any stories that come out of that place any longer.

I'd like to know how many cops have been killed by "assault weapons" since the ban lapsed. I'm sure the numbers will not be reported by the Miami Herald.
