Calling All Creeps


Mike Ross of The Edmonton Sun, commenting on "The Gun Sculpture" :

"Frankly, it can give you the creeps - or at least attract creeps who say things like, 'Man, what a waste of good guns.'"

Just so there's no mistake--no compromise or dialog is possible. These people are our enemies. They demonize and disparage us for one purpose--to gain public support for the state to disarm us through coercion and force.

The Los Angeles Times used a similar technique a few years back in an editorial cartoon comparing NRA members to cockroaches.

Those who would rule have mastered the time-proven technique that if you dehumanize a segment of society you wish to eliminate, you can treat them inhumanely without a general outcry.

UPDATE/CORRECTION: The cartoon in question dehumanized "militia" members, not specifically the NRA.
