They are all AK-47's according to the news

[RoyalTenenbaum]

While I was last at home my parents discussed an automatic ak-47 that was brought to a previous Thanksgiving skeet shoot. The gun in question was a semiautomatic AR-15. Their interest in learning was non existent.

People everywhere are referring to black rifles as ak's.

I'll admit, when I was 6, I thought that an RPG was an AK-47 because the terrorists in Back to the Future used both an AK, and an RPG, and my brother said "they're using an AK-47!" and I though he meant the RPG.... I learned later though.

But yeah, people in the media don't care about reporting truth, they care about getting ratings and promoting their agenda.

That is a great guide! Apparently, I have more AK-47 than I thought and several more M-16's.

Or every pistol is a "Glock". I get that a lot. Oh is that a Glock? I'm like yes, Stainless Steel with a thumb safety too!

Then there's a commercial every 2 minutes. When I watched tv back when, commercials in a half hour show were in the beginning, the middle, and the end.

LOL Yes, so long that you forgot what it was you were watching.

Try NO tv for about 3 years like I have and study the people & community around you, you start to feel like Donald Sutherland in Invasion of the body snatchers, it is spooky like everyone is wearing blinders and following the carrot on a string, and of course when talking to them you get the deer in headlights look or attacked once they realize you are not in lockstep.

Try no tv for 22 years. It's like there's this entire different world out there that people all live vicariously in.

Every now and then I'll be at someone's house and when the latest show comes on, I can't understand it at all. Then there's a commercial every 2 minutes. When I watched tv back when, commercials in a half hour show were in the beginning, the middle, and the end.

Happens with firearms related shows too. Spike has Self-Defense programs on weekend mornings. On one show they were testing bullet resistant material. They were using what was clearly a SKS but kept calling it an AK-47. I ended up changing the channel.
