Anything to distract the public from the real problem.

Second, all due respect to the original inventor's family, I don't think their views on it matter. The AR-15 and it's common derivatives are "commonly owned," and attempting to ban them would be a direct infringement on our 2A rights.

Unacceptable.

I'm pretty sure Mr. Stoner would have objected to the media blather that an AR-15 was used by the Orlando shooter. It wasn't. Once again, the libtards show they don't care about facts or root causes.

Agreed. FTR, it was a SIG Sauer MCX. But that doesn't matter to the antis and the MSM. They know what they want to target and they're going to put it out there for the "sheeples..." the people they hope/expect will suck it all in like the Gospel Truth. They know that all they have to do is say "AR-15, AR-15, AR-15" and "ASSAULT WEAPON, ASSAULT WEAPON, ASSAULT WEAPON" as much as they can, and, eventually, the "sheeples" will believe them.

We have to be just as diligent with our media presence as well. We need to fight for the attention of those sheeples and the legislators for whom they vote. The liberal MSM has a stranglehold on them, now. We need to break that hold, and get them on our side.

I'm glad I've got all I need in the black rifle category because this go round could be really bad ... like Clinton '94 or worse.

Sound like a couple of silver spoon babies looking for their 15 minutes of fame..

We need to talk about violence. Not gun violence. Put "gun" in the sentence and the focus changes from the perpetrator to the weapon.

If someone were to hack up people with a machete, would the press talk about "machete violence"?!!

Last I checked neither Stoner or his family make laws for this country. So his feels don't mean a hill of beans.

Which is precisely why the antis/MSM use that word. It's their "button" word. Push that button on the "sheeples" as much as possible to grind the message in. We have to be just as smart and push other buttons on those sheeples.

Of course not. It ain't a gun, so they don't care. :mad:
