In reply to the discussion: Florida Bill Would Allow Hidden Guns For All In Times Of Turmoil, Widespread Panic [View all]Nuclear Unicorn
(19,497 posts)66. You keep using weasel terms.
You say the problem is too many guns. When it is pointed out that you're trying to ban guns, i.e. keep people who are normally eligible to acquire guns from being able to do so, you protest that this is not your intent. When I dissect the process and note that you are singularly focused on accessibility you complain I am playing word games.
Either you are trying to deny accessibility or you are not. Don't be afraid to admit it and if you are afraid to admit it then the next question is: Why?
