Given the anti gun stance of the media in this country, which do you think more likely:

1) Gun carriers have their guns taken often and the media fails to report it

or

2) It simply doesn't happen

You seem to be desperate to believe #1, so go right ahead but it seems a bit far fetched.
It's not a matter of desperation, as I have very little confidence in the media, to get things accurately or at all. After all, as Mark Twain observed, "a man who doesn't read the newspapers is uninformed. The man who does read the newspapers is misinformed."

What might my purpose have been in posting this? To frighten OCers into giving it up? To alert my fellow carriers to the possibilities, so they can take steps to deal with it? To raise my post count, as whoever starts the most threads gets free breakfasts for a year? What might be statistically significant?

Last night at the Alamodome, TCU had less than a 1% of winning in the third quarter when the score was 31-0, according to ESPN. But they did.

67.3% of statistics are misleading, and the rest flat wrong.
Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.
