Media bias has a huge impact on the gun control debate. The entire debate would be dramatically different if at least three points about mass public shootings ever got coverage.

Securing freedom beyond government
Today, I am a conservative and a Republican because of Ronald Reagan. Most importantly, I am an optimist about our future because of his influence on my life.
Joe Biden's 'Joe30330.com' nightmare
By now, everybody knows of Joe Biden's latest gaffe -- that of botching his own debate closer, the part where he's supposed to plug his presidential run, the part where he told a listening CNN audience that "if you agree with me, go to Joe 30330 and help me in this fight." Text much, guy?
It's still Elizabeth, Bernie, a deflated Joe and Kamala (hanging by a thread)
Joe Biden, the former vice president, having practiced politics since 1972, had what should have been a simple task: to show he has the right stuff to be president and is prepared to lead the nation somewhere specific, where Democratic voters actually want to go. He did neither. Not even close.
How Democrats destroyed Baltimore and other American cities, too
It's getting so bad for the Democratic Party leadership that one could almost start feeling sorry for them. Almost, but not entirely. What's happening to that party is of their own doing with the extraordinary destruction delivered by a party run and influenced by charlatans and frauds.
Environmental hypocrisy of Google Camp elites
Google Camp is hosting several high-brow celebrity names and Hollywood types at an event in Sicily, Italy, to talk about the travesties of climate change. But the bigger, albeit shush-shush, hush-hush-now, news deals with the travel arrangements for these bigwigs. Apparently, according to Italian media, they arrived on private jets.

SNYDER: Youth sports brawls reflect big leaguers' bad behavior
Serious question: What's the difference between the Reds-Pirates ninth-inning brawl Tuesday, and the June 15 brawl between adults at a youth baseball game in Colorado?
Defying the conventional wisdom
It's long been political conventional wisdom that governors tend to make the best presidential candidates — think Ronald Reagan, George W. Bush and Jimmy Carter. So far, not this time around, however. Several Democratic governors past and present are vying for their party's nomination for the presidency. Yet they've made nary a splash. In the debate in Detroit earlier this week, former Gov. John Hickenlooper of Colorado and current Gov. Steve Bullock of Montana were nothing but also-rans, outshone by not only Sens. Bernie Sanders of Vermont and Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts but also new age guru Marianne Williamson.
'Racist' canard losing power
Leon Trotsky was among the first to use the word "racism" for political purposes. Were he around today, you can bet he would use the strategy the left is using today: calling out as racist whomever they wish and getting enough people to believe it, thereby ending any debate. It's a strategy well taught in Saul Alinsky's book "Rules for Radicals," that bible for the far left.
Produce supposed 'evidence'
I watched the loathsome interview given by the Democrats after the Mueller testimony, and heard Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler say they will be subpoenaing more people in the search for evidence to impeach President Trump.

The Democrats' land-grab agenda no one is talking about
From the chambers of Congress to the controversy of the campaign trail, the Democratic Party's long-foreseen character arc into the not-so-secret weapon of the socialist movement is complete.
Smelling rats in Baltimore
Calling someone "racist" has become the default position for liberal politicians and certain members of the media who wish to deflect attention from real problems.
'Why I support the House Democrats'
I am wildly enthusiastic about the Democrats who control the House of Representatives. As a bonus for us on the right, the Democratic House has provided hours of entertainment.
