For example, instead of the truthful phrase - gun ban - the
gun ban zealots employ phrases like - gun control - and - gun safety - to
depict their gun ban initiatives. They have also convinced the biased news
media to trundle right along with their linguistic rhetoric. That the news
media plays right along is no surprise really, especially when the news media
still refers to an atrocity like the ethnic slaughter that occurred in the
defunct Yugoslavia
as "ethnic cleansing". The genocidal murderers of Yugoslavia got away with calling
their heinous war crimes "cleansing", and the media has actually gone
along with their terminology, and largely still dose. In that same vein, the
gun ban zealots want to "cleanse" all the guns out of America too.
What the gun ban zealot faction secretly believes is that
the only "gun safety" is the total banishment and destruction of
every civilian firearm in America .
In New York State, for example, the gun ban zealots, led by one of their leading
gun grabbers, Governor Andrew Cuomo, even named their latest overreaching and
unconstitutional gun ban and confiscation statute with the acronym
"SAFE" which euphemistically stands for "Secure Ammunition and
Firearms Enforcement" Act. The New York Secure Ammunition and Firearms
Enforcement Act statute text repeatedly employs the terms "surrender",
and “immediate surrender”, as its code word term of art to describe
confiscation of firearms from New
York residents under a variety of circumstances and
statutory provisions. For example, all New York residents must now sell all gun
magazines that can contain more then ten (10) rounds of ammunition to an out of
state buyer, or destroy them, within the next year, or be liable to criminal prosecution
for mere possession of them. The punishment for mere possession of such an
ammunition magazine punishment includes confiscation of the gun magazines by
the state, in addition to prison time.
The gun ban zealot rhetoric gets worse though, because they have
all but completely convinced the average American that a modern sports rifle, is
really an "assault rifle", although that is an outright lie. Despite
the fact that modern sports rifles, are not “assault rifles”, the gun ban
zealots, appear to have actually won that battle of words. The problem is that
such language coups have been essential components of their gun ban propaganda
campaign. Once they have convinced the uninformed that a modern sports rifle is
actually, in their words, "an automated killing machine", “only
useful for mowing down masses of people", supporters and defenders of the
second amendment begin the rebuttal with a mountain high uphill battle before
them, just to change the language used in the debate, let alone gain traction
within the debate itself.
Just as supporters and defenders of the second amendment
have maintained an infrastructure against the potential onslaught of the gun
ban zealots and their unconstitutional legislative initiatives, the gun ban
zealot faction has been laying in wait, planning for years for the
opportunistic moment when political circumstances lend themselves to their rhetoric.
An all out mobilization, including grassroots lobbying of elected federal and
state representatives is all that stands between America's lawful and
responsible firearms owners, and gun ban zealots like California’s U.S. Senator
Dianne Feinstein, who keeps saying "turn 'em all in, Mr. and Mrs.
America".
