Paul Helmke is quoting Sarah Brady:
"The fact is that this debate isn’t about guns at all. It’s about how we as a society relate to guns. It’s about how we buy them, sell them, store them, and use them. When we talk about gun control, what we’re really talking about are ways to encourage people to behave differently around guns. A gun may be just a tool, but it’s a tool whose misuse can have profound and permanent consequences."
So talking about how we "relate" to them, store them, et al. is NOT debating about guns. So that means when we discuss seatbelt laws and DUI's we're not talking about cars? Of course the fact that they DO push for bans on everything from "saturday night specials" to "assault weapons" to "big 50's" is not part of the debate according to them. One might also notice that the Brady Bunch continue to push their agenda that the 2nd is NOT an individual right. But that's not debating about guns either? Is it.
And of course Paul just HAS to throw in the disingenuous statistic of 30,000 deaths by "gun violence". And he and Marsha wonder why there's no dialog.
