'Americans for Responsible Solutions' is Rebranding

[OakRiver]

The group dedicated to degrading the Second Amendment is changing it's name to 'Giffords'; Gabby Giffords Changes Name of Gun Control Group, Hoping to Gain Traction

I guess this is an implicit admission that their previous advocacy has been so unsuccessful that they now need to separate themselves from it, and it is no longer about Americans - it is about them

I guess "giffords" sounds better than "my idiot husband is calling for assault weapons to be banned and he just bought an ar15"

Marketing 101.

They can stuff a salami up their rear and call it a ham sandwich and I still wouldn't buy what they're peddling.

This is the most recent thread about the Giffords, so I'll just drop this here.

Former ATF Agent Mocks New Gun Owners

Nicolo Machiavelli was a political expert on the use of power, who the left has idealized for 500 years. He wrote that armed people see the world differently than unarmed people.The famed political philosopher states it well in The Prince:Because there is nothing proportionate between the armed and the unarmed; and it is not reasonable that he who is armed should yield obedience willingly to him who is unarmed, or that the unarmed man should be secure among armed servants. Because, there being in the one disdain and in the other suspicion, it is not possible for them to work well together. David Chipman is attempting to convince recently armed people to place themselves back into the category of unarmed people. It is rather like convincing someone to forget what they have seen.

People in the gun culture need to welcome these new members. They need training and support. Put aside past judgements. Many were only believing what "experts" told them. They have much to learn, when they are seeing the world through the eyes of an armed citizen.
