I’m pleased to report that the civilian disarmament industry’s push to replace the words “gun control” with “gun safety” has failed to find favor amongst the Average [Non Morning] Joe. The most mainstream of the mainstream media—ABC, CBS, etc.—are sticking with “gun control” as well. As well they should. “Gun safety” means being safe with a gun. “Gun control” means controlling guns. Not that guns have a will of their own. Or do they? The term “gun violence” has wormed its way into common parlance, indicating that the guns are responsible for violence. In the same sneakily subconscious way that “assault rifles” assault. And now we have “gun amnesty.” What do gun grabbers expect these “guilty by their very existence” guns to do? Why they expect them to die, Mr. Bond. Obviously. I’m going with another catchphrase: a gun is a terrible thing to waste. They deserve a good home and a proper education. That’s just common sense.
My wife is from Japan, and she actually was scared to come over here and scared of guns especially because she heard about the Japanese person who was shot dead during Halloween. However, now that she’s here, she’s not scared any more. I keep guns in the house and she knows that we don’t own them for the purpose of going out and murdering people. She also knows that the four safety rules will prevent accidental deaths. Education about guns has trumped the media hype about their dangers.
My wife is from Europe. She said to get married I had to give up my guns when we returned to the states because they are dangerous. I said it looks like we aren’t getting married then. She changed her mind a while later. Now she wants to learn how to shoot.
Funny that you have this topic first thing this morning…on my commute I heard NPR refer to the Senate bill as “gun regulation” – and all I could think was, “Huhm…isn’t that a convenient phrase.” NPR has done a decent job thus far, but…
We have a lot of students that hail from the Middle East and Latin American. Places that are far more violent than the US. As usual Kerry if FOS.
Who is that female interviewer?
Don’t forget adding “common sense” to the narrative…it’s still red hot…and working. Facts be damned, what kind of moron can argue against common sense?
There are two more of these ads I’ve seen… One if them has a kid holding a dodge ball, another has a kid holding one if those “kinder surprise” eggs. Because dodge ball is universally banned in every school and its a felony to bring one onto school property.
Also, fun fact: in all 3 of these ads, every child holding a “banned” object is non-white. Only white kids are holding the evil assault rifles. Maybe a coincidence, but still weird.
I wonder how they differentiate those evil dodgeballs from every other ball that can be used to play a game.

Using guns to fight evil = watch out for drones. Creating evil = Dont worry the drones are watching youre victims.
“By any means necessary?”
The problem is that “by any means necessary” makes it a whole lot easier for the powers that be to railroad a convenient scapegoat rather than put in the hard work of catching the actual culprit. Simply grab a random individual, preferably belonging to some politically unpopular group, then torture him into confessing, followed immediately by summary execution. Fast, neat, simple, and wrong.
Kerry is demonstrating the fighting pose he used THREE TIMES to win the Purple Heart. He’s my heeee-row.
