Control the narrative... control the people...
Journalism 101
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Kind of like a hate crime. If I like you do I get a lesser sentence? Or better calling semi-automatic firearms assault weapons. A lie repeated is still a lie.

Limited to semi automatics and pump shotguns.

I dunno... Pawpaw's old sbs 16 gauge used to slap me in the jaw every now and then when I was a kid. I though that was pretty violent.

Never been threatened by a gun, not once.
Assault weapons? Which will permit the assailant to do the most harm? An AR15 or a 12 bore single shot of #4 buckshot?

Rubber buckshot is a less violent gun alternative.
Semi-violent, call it.

'Automobile Violence' is much more prevalent....
For the yutes of the world it is 'Water' and the 'Chemicals under the Sink' that is violent.....
Seniors have to deal with 'Step', 'Stair' and 'Curb' Violence..................

Never met a violent gun in my life, but the media keeps using the term, including FNC. Guns are inanimate objects; people are another story... It's a deceptive lie...It means black-on-black violence, but that verbage doesn't fit the agenda.

kind of like this:
A black guy killed by a cop using a gun, = bad cop
a black guy killed by a black guy using a gun = gun violence.
Laws aren't preventative measures. In other words, more laws won't prevent gun crime from happening.

News media axiom is, "If it bleeds, it leads". Using terms like gun violence insures ratings which translates into advertising revenue. The news media is not interested in seeking out the truth, ratings and or readership that translate into advertising revenue is all they seek.

Yes, it's criminal violence that's the problem, same thing I told Mom when I brought her a revolver for their house, Mom, I can load this revolver, cock the hammer, it will harmlessly sit on this table till the house falls down around it, OH! Okay, that makes e feel better.
