In Chenpeng village, Henan province, a crazy man slashed 22 children and an adult at the gate of a school.   This comes from  the Xinhua news agency on Friday.

This isn’t an isolated incident in the country where most people are limited to having only one child.   In 2010,  a man slashed 28 kindergarten aged kids,  two teachers and a guard at a school in Eastern China.

Despite the obvious,  the U.S. media had already begun a full scale campaign to use the  tragic deaths of Connecticut kindergarteners to push an anti-gun political agenda.   This mission was pursued with uncanny speed, even before information on the attack and the perpetrator had been sorted out.  Similarly the media also failed to report accurately on the deaths of the hundreds of Mexican citizens killed by the Mexican drug cartels, armed with U.S. government supplied guns of the Fast and Furious operation, for the sake of that same anti-gun agenda.

‘Real News’: Bob Costas’ Sunday Night Football Gun Remarks Ignite Controversy | Video | TheBlaze.com.

The commentary surrounding Kansas City Chiefs player, Jovan Belcher,  killing the mother of his 3 month old child, and later killing himself, has saturated the popular media.

Bob Costas, a tenured, leftist, NBC sports announcer, gained further favor with his bosses by reciting the words of a fellow leftist, Jason Whitlock,  on the air:

“Handguns do not enhance our safety. They exacerbate our flaws, tempt us to escalate arguments, and bait us into embracing confrontation rather than avoiding it.”

“In the coming days, Jovan Belcher’s actions and their possible connection to football will be analyzed. Who knows? But here, wrote Jason Whitlock, is what I believe: If Jovan Belcher didn’t possess a gun, he and Kasandra Perkins would both be alive today.”

Perhaps some people would not have the mental energy to call up another murder/suicide  (Fri 11/30/12)  which made national news over the weekend. The following is from the AP, describing a murder at Wyoming Community College in Casper.

…”police were trying to figure out what motivated Christopher Krumm to attack his father and his father’s girlfriend, 42-year-old Heidi Arnold, a math instructor at the college. Arnold was found stabbed to death in front of the home she shared with James Krumm.”

“After shooting his father with the arrow, Christopher Krumm stabbed himself, then fatally stabbed his father in the chest in a struggle in the classroom, Walsh said.”

“Police arrived to find James Krumm dead and Christopher Krumm barely living. The younger Krumm died soon after students fled in a panic.”

What was Costas/Whitlock saying about guns being necessary for murder/suicide?

Please also note that the highest murder rates, and  America’s most recent and notable massacres, have occurred in locations with the most stringent gun restrictions: VA Tech, Columbine, Aurora, Ft. Hood.  Chicago has some of the most restrictive gun laws in the nation, and it’s a  war-zone.
