"... I hear this slippery slope crap all the time, enough already.
A, ‘Slippery Slope’, is a phrase that is most known for it’s relationship to firearms/laws/freedom.
Yet, ‘Slippery Slope’, Can and Has Been,
very successful,
in many other applications.
Now here is the the reason it is called, ‘Slippery Slope’.
Ever Been on one ? Ever Slid down one ?
Once you start, it is very hard to stop,
Very Hard.
So the term, ‘Slippery Slope’,
applying to gun laws.
A Liberal, pushes a Conservative,
To the ‘Slippery Slope’, and then they will
’Slide’ down rapidly.
Right down to the bottom, where the Liberal want’s them.
And that is accomplished with terms like:
‘Common Sense Gun Laws’
So when the Ultra-Librals, believe they have DUPED enough people.
With Their term, ‘Common Sense Gun Laws’,
Which WILL, Contain absolutely Draconian BAN ‘rules’.
If any one questions it, the Ultra-Liberls will Champion it,
calling it, ‘Common Sense Gun Laws’,
and add,
‘Just Pass it, and read it later”. (Because they KNOW, that Line Works)Just a tidbit for those that Don't know.
When Clinton First wrote the,
‘Common Sense Gun Law’
BANNING AR-15 and variants.
The First Bills, ALSO, Completely BANNED,
a 2 barrel Shotgun, with One trigger.
AND, ALL, Semi-Auto Shotguns.
But ya know, a ‘lobby’, stepped in,
and they had people that were firearm knowledgeable.
They, ‘Caught’, those ’ ‘Slippery Slope’ laws.
Just like a bunch of, ‘Excavator Business’,
Hired a, ‘Lobby’, so that a, ‘Mound’ system was required.
A mound system cost a homeowner 4 times more,
and it cost the Excavator Less than a ‘old style’ system to install.
(mound system treats backwater) So perhaps now, some may understand,
slippery slope, is NOT, crap
