Gunsplaining comes down to the perception guns look frightening and something that looks frightening needs to be banned.
The gun control policy debate isn’t being driven by the facts, logic and reason for sure.
If they want to ban something, they damned sure do have to know what the hell they’re talking about. You can’t ban a figment of your imagination.
Socialism has killed 300 million people.
The Socialists will take your guns in the name of safety.

I want to ban “that thing in the back that makes it go up” as described by Congress person Carolyn Maloney.
Why do federal agencies like the IRS, The EPA, The BATFE, and the Department of education all possesses thousands of MACHINE GUNS ?
If machine guns are only useful in war why do these federal agencies all have them and the American People do not?
If the American People are not allowed to have Machine guns when are federal agencies and the police going to give up theirs?
***you’re trying to make a semi-automatic weapon sound like a machine gun for a reason***
Right out of Josh Sugarmann’s playbook, who got the anti-a-s-s-ault rifle” ball rolling back around 1988.
“Assault weapons—just like armor-piercing bullets, machine guns, and plastic firearms—are a new topic. The 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. In addition, few people can envision a practical use for these weapons.”

I remember the Stoner designed firearms being sold way back in 1968. AR-15, AR-180, AR-7.
Has there been any outcry against the AR-7 survival rifle yet?
The left normally loves to parse words and hide behind legalese.
“Gunsplaining”? When the Media has no argument they instead create a catchy-word that gets in the way of critical-thinking.
BEGGING for yet MORE dummy down’s??
I mean, it isn’t just in the case of the gun issue.
EVERY single issue Liberals address is at the most cursory and basic level in both their perception, their debate, their understanding, etc.
If detail and facts are incidental to your view of the world and the things in it...then you are a Liberal and approach every issue at THAT level. It’ doesn’t leave much but, that is how they see things.
It’s impossible to take people like that seriously. A child or a drunk has a better conception of how the world works.
Weinstein,
Now there’s a name you can trust.
