The Firearm Blog Compares Guns And Alcohol
From The Firearm Blog:
I also will refrain from invoking grandiose constitutional arguments or partisan political statements – in reality, I don’t need them. What I would like to do is explain why the restriction on inanimate objects in the United States is not only ineffective, but also goes against our way of life as a free society.
Why does the United States continue to allow the legal sale, possession and use of alcohol? Its use only serves entertainment value, however the detrimental health effects from the consumption of alcohol is well documented. The social consequences of the abuse of alcohol are also wide-reaching. And the public safely concerns of operating a motor vehicle under the influence, domestic violence, sexual assault and many other crimes have a direct correlation with the use of alcohol.
Anti-Gunners Changing Language, Stop Using Gun Control
From Politico:
For example, groups seeking tighter gun laws have been trying to get away from the “gun control†label since well before ARS started testing for a new messaging strategy last year. Better options, they say, are “gun violence prevention†and “preventing gun tragedies.â€
“We’ve stepped away from a debate about guns that was sort of postured pro-gun or against-gun,†said Peter Ambler, the PAC’s executive director, “into one that’s centered around data-tested ideas like the background checks that we know increased public safety and save lives, but don’t sort of disapprove of the individual gun owner and don’t disapprove of the responsible use of firearms in society.â€

This is how the slow boil to confiscation starts.
