BEARING ARMS: Small group of Georgia (Democrat state) senators want to destroy guns.

The guns in question are ones that have been confiscated by police. Current policy is to sell them at auction to licensed dealers and put the proceeds into the state's general fund, which strikes me as an eminently sensible idea.

GOOGLE'S NEW FACTCHECKER is partisan garbage.

And their search engine is equally biased. Here's an example: try a search for "Shadow's World blog" on a variety of search engines. I did. Here are the results:
Google: not in the first 10 pages (100 entries)
Aol: 1st entry
Bing: 3rd entry
Yahoo: 4th entry
Ask: not in first 10 pages
