Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels is often attributed with the quote, “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.” The gun control crowd knows this and practices their lying almost like a religious ritual. What’s worse is that enough ordinary people, out of their ignorance and unfamiliarity with guns, believe those lies and repeat them so the lies snowball and get a life of their own. The mainstream media, with their own mix of ignorant and malevolent actors, amplifies those lies to make matters worse.
The new Big Lie of gun control is the false claim that firearms are the leading cause of death of children and teens in America.
This oft-repeated lie has made its appearance on Bloomberg-funded Everytown’s Twitter feed on several occasions. I have addressed it with a direct look at CDC data in a past article on Bearing Arms. Data from the CDC thoroughly shreds Everytown’s false claims. If you don’t believe me, you can run your own reports and do your own analysis on the CDC website.
