Posting Articles - Edit out the garbage
« on: May 15, 2021, 09:11:05 AM »
I like reading some of the posted articles here, instead of reading them on some of their original sites. But, when posting them here many of you cut & paste the article with many of the links and side articles imbedded within the article making it hard to distinguish between the article and the sidebars.  Take a little time and cut and paste just the article, it may take a minute or two more but it will make for a better reading experience for all.

'Tucker Carlson Originals' takes aim at false narratives surrounding the AR-15
Fox Nation's 'Tucker Carlson Originals' investigates America's most popular weapon and takes aim at the Left's fixation on banning it.

Politicians on the left love to paint assault rifles as weapons of war, but the AR-15, America’s most popular rifle, is a staple in American lifestyle, host Tucker Carlson argued in Fox Nation’s newest episode of "Tucker Carlson Originals."

Carlson met up with Greg Kinman, the man behind popular firearms YouTube channel Hickok45, on his well-known Tennessee range to get a deeper understanding of the AR-15 rifle and its functionality.

"They’re just a semi-automatic rifle," Kinman said. "The same technology has been around for 100 years, over 100 years."

AR-15’s dubbed "weapons of war" are not issued by the military and are not commonly connected to homicides. According to FBI crime statistics, homicide victims are more likely to be killed with a knife than a rifle – AR-15’s being even less likely, Carlson explained.

"I know there are some irresponsible people in the world but the number of accidents is not really any greater than it is," Kinman weighed in.

In fact, the AR-15 is most commonly used as a hunting rifle, Carlson explained, as most calibers are legal to hunt with.

Some Texas ranchers rely on AR-15’s to manage varmints like wild hogs and coyotes that kill livestock, costing farmers more than $1.5 billion per year.

"We don’t want these animals to suffer but we do need to eliminate them because they’re causing a lot of damage," one rancher said.

  Which is why I usually just post the link.  It would seem much easier to just click onto a link, rather than try to wade through a ton of verbal flotsam and jetsam.

For some, click through links don't work, take them to sites they prefer not to visit, and inconvenience the reading enjoyment on GBOReloaded.

I do not disagree that "cleaning up" the story respects the readers here, it isn't required.

I don't need the garbage edited. It's easy to skip it.

I seldom look at'em. I don't wade through all the crap. If I'm interested in the topic I look it up myself.
