This time around, the Dems are once again shooting themselves in the foot by pandering to the AWFULs (Affluent White Female Urban Liberals), and hoping that gun owners won't notice.
This is dumb. It's hard to get gun owners to vote sometimes, but when we perceive that our rights are under active threat, we become the most motivated of voters.
“Assault weapons’ menacing looks, coupled with the public’s confusion over
fully-automatic machine guns versus semi-automatic assault weapons
—anything that looks like a machine gun is assumed to be a machine
gun— can only increase the chance of public support for restrictions on
these weapons.”
– Josh Sugarmann
Did you know that a musket is a weapon of war? Did you know that there is not an army in the world that uses an AR 15 as its rifle?
NO chance? Remember the ‘red flag’ vote? The FIFTEEN Republicans who allied with the ‘rats? Never say never.
“The guy who coined the term “assualt weapon”, Josh Sugarmann of the “Violence Policy Center”
Actually “assault rifle” is the English translation of the German word “sturmgewehr”.
They don’t care if it costs them votes if they can pass it. They know they will get back in to power again and they control the bureaucrats. It is one step closer to their ultimate goal of “disappearing” we deploreable enemies.
