What ever happened to.....
All the time, up until 9/11 I would hear TV and radio blasting out polls and percentages about how many people owned guns, along with the estimates of illegal guns out there. It used to be the mating call of the TV anchors and news DJs. It went on for YEARS and even DECADES.
Now the past half decade or so you still hear them spewing handgun stories but all the statistics have stopped.
Now why do you suppose that is?
Is it because alot of people are quietly buying up guns in case the government decides to go full bore nazi?
If that's not the reason then why did that avenue of information get cut off and how come hardly anyone noticed it happen?
As far as I can logic out, that is the only reason the propaganda machine went all quiet on the numbers.
Not that they were acurate to begin with, and going off of "if their lips are moving" principle, probably were not ever correct at any given time.
Still if you stop to think about it, in the past they blared it, yelled it, sprayed it all over the front pages of every mainstream media outlet, in every possible variation imaginable, which covered all scenerios EXCEPT ONE. Because that one never had the chance to build a head until now. That one was an increase in the numbers as to point to quiet signs of possible revolution.
I don't know about you but the only time I see liars and bullys become quiet on any given issue is when it scares them.
After decades of reporting of numbers on handgun sales that issue suddenly goes dead.
Granted I have stopped watching almost all mainstream news on TV, BUT I still listen to the radio when I drive to work like always, and don't hear it on the radio. The radio used to talk about it more than the TV did.
