(1,499 posts)Dairy. of course I do not subscribe to that belief, NOR have I indicated that I do. This is just ANOTHER attempt by ANOTHER gun toter to demean an opponent instead of addressing any real issue. You people have nothing.
The fact of the matter is that the astounding increase in the number of guns in the stream of commerce, and hence their astounding availability to lawful user and bloodthirsty murderer alike, is entirely due to an intentional campaign by those involved in the commercial manufacturer of firearms and shooting supplies (and, of course their minions at the NRA, GOA, etc. AND the politicians they have bought) to use racism, xenophobia, Islamophobia, and Barack-ophobia (anti-government, black helicopter, FEMA Camp nonsense) to convince white folks that there are gangs of criminals, diseased brown people, Islamic terrorist, and rogue ATF agents marauding their gated suburban communities ready to bust through their front door at any time and that nothing can stop them but a cache of guns they will NEVER use (because it is ALSO a fact that the REAL RISK of serious bodily injury and/or death in their suburban compounds from anyone other than a family member, or at their own hand is minimal and the odds that a gun will help approach ZERO).
Try addressing THAT issue.
