Media Bias At It's Best?

13 dead, including a baby, after house-to-house shooting spree in Serbian village - World News

They must have forgot the dig at gun rights in the original draft:

"Nada Macura, an official at the Belgrade hospital in Belgrade where the two were being treated, told the AP that Bogdanovic had no history of mental illness. However, Kostadinovic's wife Stanica said the man's father had hanged himself when he was a young boy and his uncle had a history of mental illness.

The AP added:

Although such apparently random shootings are rare in Serbia, weapons are readily available mostly from the regional conflicts that tore through the Balkans in the 1990s and there is a tradition of possessing firearms.
The last similar shooting spree happened in Serbia in 2007 when a 39-year-old man gunned down nine people and injured two in a village in the east of the country.
​

Bogdanovic served as Serbian army soldier in the war in Croatia that began in 1991 and lasted until 1995, Reuters reported"

Very sad. Yes, leave it to the MSM to further the anti-2A agenda by "making hay" for their position from the still-warm corpses.

I saw this earlier today. When they start searching for blood in other countries it is pretty easy to tell what the agenda is.

no shit. what happens in serbia is completely irrelevant to discussion about the second amendment or literally anything else as it relates to the united states unless we're talking about that one really ****ed up movie.

Quite frankly, the availability of weapons in the area and the "tradition" of firearms ownership is irrelevant to some nut going off for a romp. Of course the implication, or, more to the point, guilt by association, is that 1) tradition of firearms ownership is killing people; and 2) we, just like war torn Serbia, have readily available guns and this is why shootings happen. Put it all together and the implication is that we are just like a county that had been at war with ethnic cleansing for several years. Nice.

Sad part is that it was the AP that "added" the commentary. Maybe anti-2A is also added to their "style book" when they took out "Illegal immigrant."

I didn't read it as an anti piece.

Not so nice (ethnic cleansing in Serbia), but it does further the globalists' agenda of population control (based on faulty 18th C. Malthusian calculations) via war and creating the problems they say they're seeking to solve. It looks like TBTB are priming the pump for WW III with North Korea, for example, and pushing for gun [STRIKE=confiscation]confiscation[/STRIKE] control here so we'll be able to be culled when the next 'National Emergency' comes down the pike.

I thought the AP, while technically independent, is still playing on the same team as the MSM ?
Yes, there must be a roster out there somewhere of acceptable terms and phrases to keep the propaganda flowing smoothly.

'Random Shootings' are rare there because, until recently I guess, everyone there was armed.

The usual shooting there were government sanctioned cleansing. I guess that's ok. After all, do you really want to defend yourself against roaming rape gangs?
