-- Making a Career out of Controversy
These anti-gun activists, as is true with most other professional activists, start off with a non-profit organization in order to create a source of income for themselves by routinely seeking out funds from the general public, in effect making a career out of controversy and nonsense within the framework and limitations of their personality type (only certain types of people can do such things without their conscience bothering them). You must realize such people are basically petty criminal personality types -- not normal healthy people.
Normal healthy people do not make their careers out of a fraudulent interpretation of a controversy or process nonsense to establish a public position in the justification of legislation to ban something that doesn't exist.
Their official public position, in their literature and various web-sites, is always the objective to reduce crime through a reduction of guns in the hands of private citizens, creating, suggesting or declaring a relationship between guns and crime. A careful study of their legal and technical arguments will easily reveal the use of phony legal and "scientific" studies, "Junk Science" and nonsense traveling back and forth through the grapevine circuits with their arguments changing periodically to suit the needs of a change in culture, the effectiveness of opposing arguments, personalities and court decisions.
Experience has taught me they generally know nothing about the sociology of crime, guns or ballistics, and generally never learn from their experiences or get better with each successive experience. Instead, they say the same stupid things over and over and make the same stupid mistakes with each successive experience, year-in and year-out. Nor do their efforts ever have any effect toward the reduction of crime, or nor do they accept responsibility for their mistakes or their failures to resolve the problems they say they are trying to resolve.
In fact, their only effect is to actually increase crime through an increase in the vulnerability of a person's ability to defend himself, and they tend to consistently deny it. When confronted with their failure to actually reduce crime, through a reduction of guns and strong gun-control provisions, they always argue the solution to this problem is more gun-control. But, if a little gun-control doesn't work, then how can more gun-control work?
Most of these anti-gun activists have little or no education, or nothing appropriate to the subject-matter, and all of them seem to have the same problem of low self-esteem and an inferiority complex, using their position in this controversy to elevate their self-esteem and to give them power they have never before experienced. That is their career!
They are simply making a career exploiting this market niche. That is their objective -- not to reduce crime! Exploitation of a market niche created by controversy! In the same way some frauds and charlatans make their careers exploiting the need or desire of fat people to lose weight through phony weight-reduction diets, they exploit the needs of society to understand and reduce crime.
