Confederate Yankee: Misfire: AP’s Bogus Ammo Shortage Story

According to two spokesmen for the world’s largest ammunition manufacturer, which runs the military’s ammunition manufacturing plant and separately, is a major supplier of law enforcement ammunition, it is a massive and unexpected increase in law enforcement ammunition demand that is causing delays in law enforcement ammunition delays, not the war.

Once again, a media organization with target fixation seems to have widely missed the mark.

This kinda relates another post about mediots and press bias.

It also kinda backs up my original contention, in a minor way, that we don’t need a full-auto AR in every squad car, nor do we need Expert Marksmen manning them. After all, those are my tax dollars they’re blasting away with there.

    Thanks for the tip and the link, which I used to update my post on this. At least I’m not entirely surprised.
