This reminds me of an old episode of the Andy Griffith Show. That may seem an odd place to see evidence of the changing times but you can find it there nonetheless.
The Scenario :
The carnival is in Mayberry and Opie wants to win a prize for his father's birthday. He takes the money he has earned to the carnival's shooting gallery to win a fancy electric razor for his father, Andy Taylor.
The Original Story:
The carnival shooting gallery has the rifle sights bent ensuring that neither Opie, nor anyone else using that particular rifle, can win a prize.
The Changing Story :
Going to the carnival and shooting at targets was a common event, one I experienced myself at age ten or eleven. When I saw the original airing of this episode the theme of the story was about the carnival folks trying to cheat the boy and how the boy's father, Mayberry's Sheriff, made things right.
Today, the story has an altogether different theme.
Today the story for me is trying to picture ten year Opie Taylor with a loaded rifle in sight of mothers with children in tow on a crowded midway.
The evidence of the liberal’s foolish quest for something he clearly does not understand is his logic. The liberal’s flawed logic is exposed when the individual’s inherent right protected by the 2nd Amendment to America’s Constitution is the topic.
Whenever a deranged person abuses his right to own a gun and harms another person the liberal’s logic causes an immediate reaction, which is to blame all those who did not do it.
Here is a global example of the flawed liberal logic. We pass laws because we cannot trust the people, but we trust the people to obey the laws we pass.
When you apply that specifically to the 2nd Amendment, you get this liberal position. The people can't be trusted, so we should have laws against guns, which the people will abide by, because the people can be trusted.
Wasn't uncommon/unusual at every carnival in town, but that was LONG ago.....
