So Ask Amy decided to revisit her initial article about the young lady wit the super-duper explosive killing .40 caliber gun banned in so many states and correct her fuck ups only to screw it even bigger:

This column was as bad as the last. Nobody should threaten her, but it is clear that her bias colored every aspect of that article.
Also, her appeal to LEO authority is emblematic of her mentality. Unless that particular second generation cop is a gun guy in his private life, there is a good chance that he knows dick about guns. But in her mind the only reasonable, knowledgeable people are cops, so that’s who she is going with. She is a clear believer in the magic fairy dust of government.
I doubt she received more threats than the baseline for someone in the public eye.
