Reminds me of the push here in Canada to stop calling firearms "weapons"
It worked. Now instead of restricted and prohibited "weapons" - handguns and full autos - we have prohibited, restricted and non-restricted "firearms."
I guess we showed them. :banghead::banghead::banghead:
Perhaps we should spend a little more time stressing that all firearms can be used for good or bad purposes, and that the appropriate use of law is to allow those who do bad things to be stopped and incarcerated.
Who are we trying to convince? People who have no recreational interest in firearms; but have a healthy interest in living reasonably secure, free lives.
