Colt bails out of the civilian AR-15 market

[mrerick]

There is often a minuscule kernel of "truth" wrapped in the lies you read and hear in the media.

When you're directly involved in the thing that the media is reporting on, you regularly understand how small that kernel is, even if it happens to be in there.

Everybody does it, and it's under the control of the editors that work for the publishers that profit from it. The key is to understand how media is modulating and using fear to maintain the public's attention.

So... as they say, pick your poison. On our forum, a true mistake or informed assumption is more likely to be misleading than an outright fabrication. It's nice to be among friends here.
