All He's Arguing

“All I’m arguing is that before you get a gun, you should be able to show your community that you can handle that gun responsibility.” [More]
No, of course that's not all he's arguing.

Case in point:
“Legally obtained or not, whether by ‘good guys’ or ‘bad guys,’ guns are the problem,” they insist. “If we’re serious about saving lives, we need to build a bolder, broader movement that finally tackles the problem at its core. We need to go after guns themselves.”
Naturally, while cozying up to them and lulling them with weasel words, he didn't ask gun owners if they agreed with that. And it's not like ace DSM reporter Julia Manchester and The Hill had any incentive to find out any of this stuff and ask him to explain.

People who don't know they're being lied to are the ones whose manipulated opinions are most effective to trumpet.
