If crime had gone up instead of down the liberal propaganda machine called the Lincoln Journal would have considered it very newsworthy, with at least one front page story about how they told us so. But since the opposite happened I guess it isn't newsworthy. I bet they were frantically searching for some gun control law that came along around the time the crime rate started dropping they could say was the reason.
So how about this: Obama was elected in '08, and the lower crime rate is because of his brilliant leadership of the nation, in spite of all those Nebraska hicks being able to carry a gun. Is that good enough to get me a job with the Lincoln Journal?
