While pointing out that in 2005 murder is up, casually mention the assault weapons ban expired. It doesn’t seem to matter that murder is up in places that have a ban or that there is no evidence that murders committed with formerly banned are on the rise or that the preferred and most common weapon used in murder is a handgun. Gunbloggers need to stay on this one. [...] [...] First, (as mentioned before), the assault weapons ban canard is popping up.

We are looking at the opening salvos in another propaganda war prior to calling for another ban. This is just the "softening up" phase. The "senseless tragedy" phase is next followed by the "hysterical fear phase" to be followed by the "we must take action now (ban them)" phase. Hide and watch if that isn't the way it goes. FBI, TSA, and PD's will lead the quotes. We are not looking at simple dishonesty. We are looking at the opening salvos in another propaganda war prior to calling for another ban.

It boggles the mind though, to see this much dishonesty.
