Language is of premier importance to all of us.

Language has the ability to change the way we think without us even realizing it. Mechanically, however, the language of gun control is very difficult for the leftists.

Every single time when leftists can't get their way, they just adapt the definition that fit their narrative. Once they change the definition, all they have to do is pretend that's what it always was.

Latest one, definition of "assault rifle". They changed it just last week, on March 17th 2018.

According to Miriam-Webster, the revised definition of "assault rifle" is:

They just broke the golden rule of definitions: when defining a word, do not use word that describe the word itself. e.g. do not use the word bread when defining bread.

Basically, definition changes completely based on misinformation spread by anti-gunners and their meat puppets on TV. Magazine fed full auto rifles are assault rifles, and "full semi-auto" rifles that look scary are now assault rifles. In other words, if is black and looks scary...
 
Ad hominem, the favorite attack used by gun freaks.

Ad hominem?

Read the thread title.
Read the thread itself.

It may take awhile for you to notice that this thread is not about gun control or guns, but about changing definitions. Got it yet, dunce?

Yes? Discus the topic.
No? Here is the exercise for you. Look for definition of "marriage" from before 10 years ago and revised leftist definition from today.
 
It used to be 'god' and now it's Intelligent Design. Now that ID hasn't had the intended effect what will be the next iteration of 'how do we make religion sound the same and thought of on the same footing as science'? Cons have used the shell game forever, how to make dogma sound new.
