Well, as I assimilated what we were being served up and what my lying eyes were telling me I thought about that alot. Why would this be done?

IMHO, 1st it is a psyop to align us against guns for the common shitizen. Also, to further lead us astray from truth. Discerning it, respecting it, searching for it.
Fear mentality and population conditioning. To further tear the fabric of individual rights and liberty for all. This is the playground of the NWO replete with the pretty monarch butterflies as exclamation marks.

How am I doing so far? :)
