"He who defines the terms, wins the debate"…Or, only you can prevent future bans.
Yesterday my wife and I were visiting an elderly lady. The lady won’t admit it, but she is a hard-core democrat. Anyhow, she brought up the fact that she had watched C-Span discussion regarding "those horrible assault weapons, and how kids are going to be all over the street with them again!!"
I said, "Oh, you mean the law banning civilian military-looking semi-autos?" She said, "No, I don’t think that’s it…I mean that other thingie." "You mean, the so-called Assault Weapons Ban?" "Yeah! That’s the one!" "Don’t worry," I said, "…they’re not a problem!!"
Anyhow, I explained to her the difference between Title 2 firearms [REAL Assault Weapons]. I explained to her how the "AWB" is predicated upon a hoax. I explained to her that the "AWB" is a cosmetic law based upon cosmetic features, and explained to her those evil cosmetic features.
Toward the end she said, "So, you mean that there’s no real difference between those guns and the ones my father and late husband had, other than the looks?" [Apparently they had Browning semi-auto rifles and shot-guns]
I also cited her statistics about insignificant crime usage, the majority of police officers’ opinion rather than politically-correct liberal chiefs of police. She finally concurred that the "AWB" was indeed a cosmetic political football, a fraud, a hoax.
There is an old adage: "He who defines the terms, wins the debate"…
When the filthy, dirty, foul, disgusting, reprobate Lib-dogs say things like "2/3rds of the American people favor the Assault Weapons Ban," there probably is a significant element of truth to that.
BUT, if the American people were asked, "Do you favor banning civilian military-looking semi-autos?" I am sure, certain, and confident that 2/3rds of the American people would say, "No!"
"He who defines the terms, wins the debate"…
We are never going to have final victory until WE can have the terms truthfully and accurately defined.
And, until we START doing that ourselves, even here on this board, how can we expect the lying, deceitful, Lib-dogs of the brain-washed, Lib-dog media to do it?
Suggestion: STOP saying and writing, "Assault Weapons" and "Assault Weapons Ban." And repeat over to yourself the following until it becomes natural off of the lips…
"Civilian military-looking semi-autos".
"Civilian military-looking semi-autos".
"Civilian military-looking semi-autos".
"Civilian military-looking semi-autos".
"Civilian military-looking semi-autos".
"Civilian military-looking semi-autos".
"Civilian military-looking semi-autos".
"Civilian military-looking semi-autos".
Remember: "Civilian military-looking semi-autos".
Also remember: "He who defines the terms, wins the debate."
This is how we got the now expiring ban, and this will be how we will get an even more evil one to follow, if we are not disciplined and careful in our own terms of speech!
