Recall the principle that the party who defines the meaning of words in a debate controls the debate itself. Libs have turned this fancy way of telling a lie into an art form.
Exactly.
IMO That's why the lefts' hypberbole and propaganda must be exposed and corrected. E.G. Any time the leftist-liberal media refers to a semi-automatic rifle, such as the SKS, as an "assault rifle", the error (lie?) should be pointed out, and corrected.
>>I think you're mixing up "assault rifle" - a very real term, with a very real defintion - with "assault weapon"<<
I am well aware of the real, technical, and honest, meanings of these words. I am speaking of the dangers and outright foolishness of falling into a trap the gun-grabbers have laid when we carelessly use their own terms, terms that are hand-crafted to turn the uneducated and unthinking public against the important right to keep and bear arms, if not all at once, then by increments.

The liberals just keep proving that they are the modern day Nazis.
