Piers Morgan Foolishly Invokes FRC Shooting to Cry for More Gun Contro
CNN's Piers Morgan is up in arms again over guns, and tried to use Wednesday's shooting at the Family Research Council to shill for more gun control. There's one problem – the shooter was not obeying Washington D.C.'s strict gun laws.

WashPost Devotes Puff Piece to 'Data-Driven Despot' Michael Bloomberg
Michael Bloomberg is no liberal nanny-stater, he's really a benign "data-driven despot" who marches to the beat of a different drum.

But as Boyle herself makes clear in her story,…

Coulter Column: For Crazed Gunmen There's No Greater Punishment Than O
I feel awful about what happened in Colorado, but can we stop the hugging and the teddy bears? Just as society can become inured to violence, it can also become inured to sentiment. There is nothing so hackneyed in the world of photojournalism as pictures of the hugging and the shrines with candles and teddy bears after a tragedy, with a piano softly trilling in the background.

Media Rush to Attack Gun Rights in Wake of Aurora Shooting
Within hours of the horrible massacre at the Aurora, Colorado movie theater, liberal reporters hijacked the tragedy to advance their anti-gun rights agenda.

David Limbaugh Column: The Left's Habitual and Ironic Rush to Judgment
When a radio host asked me what I thought of the massacre in Aurora, Colo., I had to ask for clarification. I said: "What do you mean? Who could deny it's an unspeakable tragedy?"
