Zumbo went so far as to call scary-looking guns "terrorist rifles". This is part of the agitprop blitz for the upcoming AWB part II. Now we have his scalp, and there will be more.

At the time of the first AWB, in 1994:

• Rush was a relative newcomer
  
• The internet was in its infancy
  
• No one had heard of "blogs"
  
• Free Republic didn't exist
  
• The Big Three networks monopolized and drove debate
  
• Zumbo could blather about "terrorist rifles" unchallenged
  

  Things are different now.

I thought the first AWB was around 1974.

Actually, a guy named Petzal at Field and Stream did the same thing in 1993, and got away with it (at least until today---it appears the back-blast from Zumbo has recalled him to the active memory of the "black guns" community, and a similar ****storm is going on at HIS blog.

Belated, but well deserved.

Rush was a relative newcomer

I still remember being infuriated with Rush on the day they voted on the AW ban. He started off his show talking about something really important happening in the House that day, and then went off about some BS bill I had never heard of, when I knew they were voting on the AW ban that day. He could have prevented that ban single-handedly if he had simply mentioned it on his show.

I personally know literally dozens of guys who had no interest in guns of ANY kind until Clinton said they couldn't have them. Now they are 2A hardliners and black rifle addicts.

One should ask him why all guns aren't considered 'scary looking.'
