The AJC has in interesting report about a Bob Barr fundraiser. Rep. Bob Barr-R Ga. was at a fundraiser when Bruce Widener handed him a loaded antique pistol and it fired, taking out a plate glass window. This eerily resembled the plot of Arliss last week on HBO, when Kirby shot Arliss with a local congressman's loaded antique pistol. The major difference is that on Arliss the congressman was a hypocritical gun control nazi whose motto was "No guns for everyone, except me."

According to the report, Widener profoundly exclaimed that "nobody was in any danger. We were handling it safely, except that it was loaded." I've got news for you Bruce, that IS NOT HANDLING IT SAFELY! Also, shame on Bob Barr for not asking or making sure it was unloaded before taking it! People like this lend credence to the arguments of the gun grabbers. The left leaning AJC has already proclaimed that the gun just went off by itself, a physical impossibility. Widener at least admits that "one of us hit the trigger," but according to the AJC the gun acted on its own.

This type of reporting parallels the anti-SUV bias that is so prevalent in the news, where SUVs are blamed for accidents rather than their drivers.
