(5,436 posts)> Most of the people on DU who own guns are not NRA members and hold a middle position on the debate.
Seeing NRA Talking Points being repeated is my definition of trolling, and is especially despicable on a Liberal chatboard. I only react with disgust when I see those Talking Points or some variation thereof.
Your response to me was, basically, "terminology changes" (BTW, you were the only one to address the point). The upshot of that proves a secondary point, that some other replies pointed out - focusing on gun minutiae is another diversionary NRA tactic. Luckily, the braintrust at the NRA are like so many other repig braintrusts. They're only "braintrusts" if you compare them to grade schoolers. Thus, their tactics are as transparent as glass.
I do have nothing but contempt for parrots, whether they say "Polly wants a cracker" or "guns don't kill people, people kill people", or "more guns make you safer", or any of the other 9,844 NRA Talking Points that DU Liberals have been subjected to since Newtown.
