On both NBC and CNN, heavy coverage of a hostage-taking in Maryland this AM. Not an unusual event (happens in my rural state several times a year) that's usually resolved reasonably. However here we see emphasis on 'man with a gun'. It's hard not to see a media/govt. conspiracy or collusion in this (and I laugh at conspiracy theorists, as a rule.) If the media wants to, they can bombard us with 'man with a gun' stories, several times a day...until the people have come to believe the contentions of the antis. And the worst part is, aside from sharing these thoughts here, I don't know what I can do about it that will make a difference. I weep for the Republic...slabsides
