“Most gun violence in America is carried out with pistols, and semiautomatic AR-15-style rifles have been used to commit some of the nation’s deadliest mass shootings.”

Well, I read that sentence differently.  Granted he used the objectionable phrase &quot;gun violence&quot; but the sentence is written in the passive voice, suggesting that the firearms noted were merely tools, and therefore are not in and of themselves responsible for the action.

I am well aware that their rhetoric often implies, and sometimes explicity states, that firearms are evil by nature and are the cause of much mayhem.  I agree that the phrase &quot;gun violence&quot; is objectionable because it suggests an active voice, but the authors did qualify that phrase with language that places the onus of the action on the actors, not the tools.]]></description>

They had to create division and hate. They gave up on the policy arguments after Obama was elected, believing they could win with favorable demographics, propaganda, and institutional control. Then, they began losing some control, in part because Elon bought twitter. They were pissed because they hate free speech and debate.]]></description>

They&#039;re going to have to confiscate &quot;sniper rifles&quot; for your safety. You can have one shotgun and one revolver. No one needs anything more than that except the VIP security details, the police, and about 20 federal agencies, including the Dept of Education.]]></description>

The 90&#039;s AWB was born from &quot;compromise&quot; after 15 years of trying to go after handguns.

Watch them go full-on &quot;turn&#039;em all in&quot; mode so in 10-15 years they can &quot;compromise&quot; yet again with another AWB.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I&#039;m not a hunter.  I thought about getting a mossberg in 308 that takes M14 magazines. Now it seems they now have &quot;an excuse&quot; to come for all the deer rifles. 

And you hunters thought you were safe. No you were never safe. 

The first step in resisting tyranny is to have a gun.  Any gun.  In the orginal movie &quot;Red Dawn&quot; from the 1980s. The resistance only had bolt action rifles. They used them to get the Russian soldiers AK47s. 

So yes. Even a Hi Point or even a North American Arms mini revolver, can be used until you get something more effective.  In the film &quot;Die Hard&quot; John McClain only his side arm . Until he used it to get an MP5. 

The gun grabbers want every single gun you have. You are a fool to think otherwise. 

Btw
A civilian in Kentucky on a restaurant patio, held off a mob of some fifty people. With only his NAA mini revolver. And several of the rioters had AR15 rifles.  

And that duck gun you use, that is on the list too. To be confiscated from you as well.]]></description>
