Accuracy in Media

In light of the recent terrorist stabbing attack in Minnesota, isn’t a prediction about terrorists attacking malls in America quite prescient?

NRA commentator Dom Raso, who served in the U.S. Navy SEALs, warned about gun-free zones and radical Islam about three months ago in his piece, “Radical Islamic Terrorists Targeting Gun-Free Malls“. In the video commentary, he warned of an impending radical Islamic terrorist attack on a gun-free mall.  Referring to a potential terrorist, Raso said, “That’s exactly why he’s looking for gun-free zones in states and cities where politicians have reduced our Second Amendment freedoms. He wants to produce mass chaos, mass panic; he wants to immediately assume control over everyone in the building. So of course he is only going to consider malls that prohibit his targets from carrying firearms.”

The left-wing Media Matters was unhappy with Raso’s prediction when it came out.
