In a stunning op-ed released Friday, the NY Times finally admitted that “assault weapons” are a made-up political term fabricated by anti-gun Democrats.
Op-ed writer Lois Beckett also admitted that once the term was manufactured and used to outlaw a class of weapons that dishonest anti-gun Democrats had used to con an entire nation, nothing happened.
It was much the same in the early 1990s when Democrats created and then banned a category of guns they called “assault weapons.” America was then suffering from a spike in gun crime and it seemed like a problem threatening everyone. Gun murders each year had been climbing: 11,000, then 13,000, then 17,000.

No reason to hide anymore it will take 100 years to reeducate the masses. That is assuming they can ever learn and understand the difference. A lie told often enough for long enough becomes the truth. Other than the two or three percent that have called it a lie from the start no one cares. We are simply talking to the choir no one outside this little sphere knows what was just said. I’ll give 100 to 1 odds on whether CNN or MSNBC make this a lead story.

Really. Can't believe they let it go to print as they are failing at promoting the commie agenda most grievously. :)
DeleteAn assault rifle is one capable of firing in automatic mode. The weapons that the commies call assault rifles are nothing more than semi-auto rifles. AK's and AR's that you buy from gun stores are semi auto's. You have to obtain a special permit and go through rings and circles in order to possess an automatic one. The German StG 44 in WWII was the first one.
