*By David Richards Santa Monica*

I am shocked and amazed that the SMDP newspaper would let a propagandist, misinformer (Steve “the mayhem” Breen) spew untruths, manipulated statistics and nonsense. He is obviously brain washed by the gun lobby and working to perpetuate these myths using tactics like Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin and Mao did.

It is finally time for this to stop and newspapers like yours to take responsibility and help account for the thousands of children being killed with guns in our country. The first step would be to remove Breen from your ranks, even if he is so entertaining. I am sure Hitler would have written entertaining misinformation too, but hopefully you would not have printed them.
