You would think the anti-gun advocates had failed enough times with false flags attempting to divide the gun owning community they would just give up.

Just found this article via the usual enemy transmissions:

The gun responsibility organization Evolve and Saatchi & Saatchi New York today launched the first phase in a national culture change campaign aimed at reducing gun violence in America. The campaign aims to become the “third voice” in a conversation that has been gridlocked for decades….The Code includes tenants such as I believe that owning a gun is a responsibility. And that gun safety is the most important part of that responsibility. I believe a gun in the wrong hands is a dangerous thing. I will be answerable for every gun I own at all times. … Evolve is about changing the culture of gun safety in America. We represent the third voice: the gun owner, manufacturer, retailer and non-gun owner who all want the same thing: less violence. It’s time. We respect that the Second Amendment guarantees the right to keep and bear arms. Let’s make our country a better, less violent place.

So that presser seems pretty reasonable on the surface. I would argue that the voice of gun rights advocates have owned the narrative of public safety. The United states is safer than its been since the 1970s! Gun ownership is at an all-time-high. Carry permit issuance is at an all-time high. Gun laws are becoming more and more liberal.

Let’s look at their web page:

I believe that while anyone can own a gun, real gun owners use their heads. I believe a gun in the wrong hands is a dangerous thing. I will keep all of my guns unloaded, locked, and properly stored when not in use. I will be trained in how to use my gun. I will be answerable for every gun I own at all times. I will talk to my kids about the fact that there are guns in our home and those guns will be properly stored. I will speak out when I see people who are using guns without using their heads. I will respect what owning a gun means. I will respect the code.

With the exception of the “Locked and Unloaded” that is 100% the NRA’s stance on gun ownership. Further looking through their website all you have for “Discussion” is signing up for their mailing list and donating money to them. There is no forum, there is no way to voice a different opinion or point out flaws in their platform.

Further there is talk about gun ownership, and citations of violent crime, but nothing about legal personal defense…you know the REASON why we own guns.

They don’t actually have any citations for ACTUAL action besides the boiler-plate “Safe Storage” which is opposed by gun advocates because if followed to the letter, it greatly hinders lawful self defense.

What they DO have is this:

Ok first let’s savor the irony of this video. A group using their freedom of speech and expression to make a factually inaccurate, crass, and insulting video.

First up, the 2nd Amendment is NOT a law governing the people, its a restriction set up to prevent the government from overstepping its powers.

They then go on and cite “examples” or irresponsible gun ownership.

Better yet, the examples they cite are all CRIMINAL acts! You leave a loaded gun around and it discharges you’re liable for that. Nobody is disputing that. You let children play with firearms without proper training and supervision, you’re liable for that. Nobody is disputing that. You discharge a firearm in an unsafe manner, you’re liable for that. Nobody is disputing that.

Which begs the question: What is this group actually standing for?

I would note that this video seems to be openly hostile to modern gun ownership. At best they are openly ignorant in current gun laws and gun ownership.

I call “False Flag”.
