It's all a matter of semantics and word games.

Just like the organization, "Mayors Against Illegal Guns", that has bought up incredible amounts of advertising time in my area, they're only against illegal guns.

Make all guns illegal, and the mayors are against all guns.

This guy can say nobody is planning to take guns from law-abiding citizens, because if owning a gun is illegal, and you own a gun, you are no longer a law-abiding citizen.

You are right, Sam Pollak provides a great example of how leftists twist words around or just plain lie. He has to know that current New York law requires law abiding legal owners of high capacity magazines to either sell them or move them out of state, and that after the deadline anyone in possession of the magazines who came to the attention of the government would have them seized and be arrested.

But he still says "no one is going to take away your guns."

Pollak is pretty brazen in his statements:

"Want to know how many guns belonging to “law-abiding Americans” have been confiscated while Barack Obama has been president?"

"Again: Zero. None. Zilch."

That statement is obviously false, and Pollak should know it.

Anyone who thinks knows that the actual number of law-abiding adult citizens in this country is zero simply because it is not possible to be law-abiding. Anyone who imagines himself to be a law-abiding citizen is simply living a fantasy and that includes everyone from your local pastor to the demented fake who dwells in the white house. You may WANT to be a law-abiding citizen, you may TRY to be a law-abiding citizen but no matter how hard you try or don’t try you CANNOT BE a law-abiding citizen. We all are violators of unimaginable numbers of laws that we have never heard of that make crimes of actions we would never think twice about and that situation is by design as it was explained in Ayn Rand’s books.
