MSNBC Misleads Us Again

MSNBC, today, is all about letting us know that Obama isn't going to take away our guns because Biden said don't "fool with my Beretta".  That quote has been taken out of context either by intention or by ignorance.  Here is the quote in context.

Biden, claiming to be a gun-owner himself who likes “that little over and under,” called that notion bogus.

“Barack Obama ain’t taking my shotguns, so don't buy that malarkey,” he said. “If he tries to fool with my Beretta, he's got a problem.”


In this case I suspect "Beretta" refers to his shotgun as Beretta does indeed manufacture over-under shotgun.  Expensive, high-end shotguns.  Translation here, we won't "fool" with your skeet-shooting shotguns, but your hunting shotgun/rifle and your personal defense pistol are fair play.

Mission: To be the best man I can possibly be, while realizing any good thing I do is of Christ and any bad thing is a result of my inherently sinful nature.
