The Huffpo seems balanced there. Did anybody check to see which direction the sun came up today?
Firearm ownership and the right to self defense is a nexus for many dissimilar groups. Even here at APS we have divisions that if not checked by the mods can cause ranker.
A good portion of the left/progressives have finally figured that out. They need to consolidate their power and control before they start disarming society.
They will probably do a divide and conquer Alinsky inspired attack on us.
The blitz will be in the mass media. The local and national news, TV sitcoms, movies and yes, even sports announcers will all start getting the message out. They will divide the disparate groups of gun owners. Fudds, authoritarian leo/military types, progressive/left gun owners will be shamed for their support and connection to the radical "others".
I'm not sure how they are going to define us that are the other. They've tried the domestic terrorist ploy and it didn't work. The whole gun running to Mexico was probably part of some type of redefining of gun owners and exploiting senseless acts of gun violence isn't working that well lately. Once they hit on the right theme though it is all over, they will have the public behind them.
“Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy." -S Alinsky
