ON THE SIDE OF GUN SAFETY (WHO ISN'T ??)

The people who oppose the National Rifle Association (NRA) ought to consider a name change from “Gun Control” Supporters/Advocates to something more positive, less to do with big government intruding into your 2nd amendment rights. To much of America, “Control” signifies “Regulation” which means the common man giving up his right to self-protection because of a bunch of lily-livered communistic city folk and big government. And an individual described as “controlling” is felt to have a personality disorder.




The anti-NRAers might try “Gun Safety” to describe themselves. Who wouldn’t want to be on the side of “gun safety”? Big Brother doesn’t want to take all our guns away, they just want us to handle them carefully--so the reasoning goes. The name is the thing. Look at how the term “safe sex” caught on. It’s unlikely that “rubber sex” would have had the same positive impact.
