Hypocrites in the media!
A recent photograph of our SECNAV visiting troops in Afghanistan reveals him openly carrying a pistol in a SERPA holster.
This photo brought-on immediate censure from (who else?) CNN correspondent, Barbara Starr.
She twits: “Can someone explain why the head of our Navy is wearing a sidearm?”
Last I heard, Afghanistan is an area of active fighting. Anyone there, with at least two brain-cells to rub together, goes armed. But, gun-hating leftists at CNN, safe, secure (and protected by security guards, wearing sidearms) within their Corporate office, obviously don’t care.
Of course, CNN executives quietly employ a veritable army of armed security guards to protect them (about which they never talk), but they are “far too pure” to ever touch a gun themselves!

And, anyone who does touch a gun can never be quite as “pure” as they are, which is one of the ways in which they smugly espouse their “moral superiority” over us mere mortals.
These sheltered, self-righteous, amoral, leftist propagandists, masquerading as “journalists,” made me sick, and they ought to make all Americans sick!

These CNN reporters should be institutionalized, they are to stupid to be walking our streets!! I have never watched a CNN report, that someone did not say something stupid! I just can not stomach even watching a few minutes of CNN any longer!
Sounds like something that a queer male cnn idiot would state.
No mention of the armed detail protecting her and everyone there. Now CNN is using ‘Selective Reporting’ to generate more ‘Fake News’.
How stupid, do you think all the bases are safe places? It’s part of his uniform.
What is the world coming to? OMG, an American civilian carrying a gun, especially in a country that is hostile to our presence, could allow for self-defense from homicidal maniacs. I guess CNN wants him to be a victims so they can cover the story.
It must have been terribly traumatic for a “journalist” to see a member of our military armed in a war zone. He should have been carrying flowers and a box of candy.
