Photojournalism Backlash

A photojournalist was criticized for a photo of a bullet that seemed to be manipulated.

"65% more bullet per bullet"

Someone just threw a cartridge really really hard.

Some people out there really think guns are just like crossbows and shoot the whole thing. 😂

The sniper after his rifle jams
"Fine I'll do it myself"

[jorgetabares]

I’d be more afraid of the guy throwing the bullets through steel 😂

[bobrobinson]

That's one of those evil bullets they talk about on " the view"

[liamthespecial]

"Here at aperture, we fire the whole bullet, that's 66% more bullet per bullet."

[Graver-]

You would be surprised how many people think this is how firearms work. This isn’t a small numbers thing

[lightorshadow]

Now if this happens to be obvious. How many news sources are doing similar acts that we don't notice?

"Not us, someone else did it". That's the lamest excuse they could've come up with. At least own it and apologize.

[AethusalaAeon]

This needs to be more common knowledge. I've ran into this so much.
It's getting ridiculous that these people that want to ban Guns don't know what a bullet does.

He owns a bullet puller, that's a clue this guy knows his stuff

Yes I’m sure photo”journalists” have never set up photos that conveniently meet their narrative.

I remember Brandon Herrera going over this photo, it was supposed to be a threat. It's not set up, it was a threat to the homeowners. Almost like saying: "the next one will go through"

We had a homeowner shoot his own house (or had somebody do it) so he could claim the SHOTGUN SLUG came from our range. He didn’t like the noise. When that didn’t work due to distance and trajectory investigation, he filed a noise lawsuit. So some sound technician took levels on a Thursday night trap shoot (the day he said was loudest). Same technician took sound readings of his neighborhood on a Saturday afternoon. Gun club was quiet compared to his own neighborhood. The lawsuit paperwork used was identical to one used against another gun club. We know because they missed a spot and forgot to change the name of the gun club in one spot on the legal paperwork. ! Haha. Anti’s still lost. Then 20yrs ago a local anti-gun writer for the newspaper created the term “assault pistol” for some story involving gun crime. It was just a Glock! Problem is their lies spread faster than weeds in a garden.

The scary thing to me is, grown adults don't have a clue how a gun or ammo works.

“We fire the whole bullet, that’s 65% more bullet per bullet”

[andoriannationalist]

You can show them this, it doesn’t matter that’s how brain washed they are. They will merely make an excuse like “well the gun issue is so critical it’s still important to encourage awareness..”

This how you know how the news media doesn't think we pay attention..
