[edit]

I tried - and failed - twice to link that side to the german one (Diren Dede). Maybe because of the different names. I have no clue. Would be nice if someone who knows better than me could fix this. Thank you! Auf-7-Meeren (talk) 16:46, 28 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]


Completeness?

[edit]

This article seems, especially the section "The Incident", seems very brief and almost totally lacking in detail. I've read most of the citations listed and, while they have more, they are also quite skimpy. Perhaps more detail wasn't available at the time it was written. I found quite a bit more in Montana newspaper articles and being a native German speaker, I've also reviewed a number of German sources. So, the obvious question is, why is it so short? Is it because no one spent much time on this, or is there some fear of retaliation from gun owners or organizations? If there is no problem, I would gladly try to do a bit better.

Description of NRA

[edit]

In the Background, the National Rifle Association is referred to as "the U.S.'s biggest gun lobby." While this description is lifted directly from the cited article, it is inaccurate and Wikipedia should not echo the inaccuracy. The NRA does not describe itself in that manner, nor is it so described on the dedicated Wikipedia page. Rather, they are referred to as a "gun rights organization" or an "organization that advocates for gun rights." I recommend that the relevant verbiage be amended.
