Gotta hand it to the propaganda arm of the GOP. They can't outright lie but they sure know how to distract.
So what did they have to say about a right wing nutcase killing cops?
Shooter Wearing Bulletproof Vest Guns Down 3 Pittsburgh Officers, Upset Over Losing Job
and...
Documents: Dispute Over Urinating Dog Led to Pittsburgh Police Ambush
Yup, Ladies and Gents, the poor man was upset about losing his job and/or having a dog peeing in his house!
Ofcourse, the fact that both articles conflict each other should not hinder Fox!
A gunman wearing a bulletproof vest and "lying in wait" opened fire on officers responding to a domestic disturbance call Saturday, killing three of them and turning a quiet Pittsburgh street into a battlefield, police said.
and this...
An ambush that resulted in the shooting deaths of three Pittsburgh policemen was precipitated by an emergency call from the gunman's mother over a dog urinating in the house.
So the guy AMBUSHED them on the spur of the moment, eh? Got his handy AK-47 and 100 rounds AND his .357 with him all the time. Oh and he was nice enough to get his mother in the basement too! All coincidence!
Of course... being a dutiful "Fair and Balanced" media. Fox News was obligated to put these little tidbits at the middle of their article where a quick scan would have a hard time finding it.
Poplawski feared "the Obama gun ban that's on the way" and "didn't like our rights being infringed upon," said Edward Perkovic, his best friend.
Another longtime friend, Aaron Vire, said Poplawski feared that President Barack Obama was going to take away his rights, though he said he "wasn't violently against Obama."
And IF the dedicated browser DOES find it, he also gets this handy denial of responsibility.
Obama has said he respects Americans' constitutional right to bear arms, but that he favors "common sense" gun laws. Gun rights advocates interpret that as meaning he would approve of curbs on ownership of assault and concealed weapons.
Indeed... nothing to do with being "surrounded" and "calls for revolution" here!
