| − | Here is an example: ""While there is no single [[gun]] that can handle any task, it is important to select guns with at least some degree of versatility. Further, it is not realistic to believe that you can get by with just one gun, or even just one [[rifle]], one [[pistol]], and one [[shotgun]]. Versatility has its limits. Like a carpenter’s box of [[tool]]s, each type of gun has its special place and purpose."<ref>70 {{Template:James Wesley Rawles authorized quotation}} January 5, 2015 http://survivalblog.com/survivalguns</ref> | + | Here is an example of "[[ James_Wesley_Rawles#Strong_Advocate_of_Conservapedia_over_Wikipedia|Rawles]]" quote: |
| | + | "As I’ve mentioned before, Wikipedia’s editors have strong [[leftist]] and [[statist]] [[liberal bias|biases]]. This is evidenced by the way that they selectively delete content and gradually push the Point of View (POV) of articles to match their world views. According a SurvivalBlog reader in [[Switzerland]], the following section was deleted from Wikipedia by members of an [[gun control|anti-gun]] Wikipedia [[cabal]] on August 14, 2013. (It had been part of the [[Mayors Against Illegal Guns]] article). Never mentioned in the Wikipedia article was the fact that there are charges pending against at least seven other members of their “crime fighting” organization: Marcus Hook Mayor [[James Schiliro|James ‘Jay’ Schiliro]] - the “furnishing [[alcohol]] to a minor” charge was just dropped on a technicality, but he still faces [[misdemeanor]] charges of official oppression, recklessly endangering another person, unlawful restraint and false imprisonment, in a bizarre incident where he tried to force a young man to have [[homosexual]] relations, at gunpoint.)"<ref>156 {{Template:James Wesley Rawles authorized quotation}} January 5, 2015 ''Embarrassing Truths: An Example of Why You Shouldn’t Trust Wikipedia'' http://survivalblog.com/embarrassing_truths_an_example_of_why_you_shouldnt_trust_wikipedia</ref>, <ref name=schiliroscandal>{{cite web|last=Bender|first=William|title=Marcus Hook Mayor arrested, seeking re-election|url=http://articles.philly.com/2013-03-22/news/37940199_1_schiliro-whelan-report-states|publisher=Philly.com}}</ref> |
