Talk about a classic case of projection!!!
A National Rifle Association radio host compared the lawmakers staging a sit-in at the House of Representatives over a gun control vote to criminals and terrorists on Wednesday.
Cam Edwards, host of the NRAs Cam & Company, griped that the lawmakers were acting in violation of House rules on photography because they livestreamed the event after House Republicans cut off C-SPAN cameras.
Then, Edwards said:
So in order to push legislation that the sponsors say would not have prevented the attacks in Orlando, Florida, theyre also going to flout the House rules. Kind of like, you know, criminals and terrorists flout the rules that we have in place right now and will continue to do so?

Last night was an excellent discussion of Brexit, complete with analyses of Scottish and Irish problems with an exit, realistic looks at finances and regulation, ties to the Commonwealth, and exploring xenophobia. Better than I've seen from most US media.
My local station does happen to need my money. And appreciates it.

Even in the network MSM there is an occasional true voice among the junk. It is not enough.
