Who the heck is "Area resident Becky Dubuque"
Area resident Becky Dubuque says the Daily Press & Argus' Tuesday story about Price staving off trouble for the second time in as many years did "a disservice by casting the store clerk in a positive light."
"The clerk kept his gun drawn and aimed at the suspect even when law enforcement was present," she wrote in an email to the newspaper. "He needs to lose the right to carry. The man's a loose cannon."
I guess the cops didn't mind, or she is out of her mind. Becky Dubuque, makeing the world safe for thieves and robbers. :roll:

It's part of our media's propaganda strategy.....they shopped around and found someone to spout an anti-gun quote. That way they can make a statement in support of their agenda while pretending to be neutral and objective.

Ah, got it. For some reason I had forgotten the biased media's attempts at social engineering.

Next one's on me. :cheers2:
