One of the other threads hinted at this sort of stuff and it's something I've noticed in the last year or so, maybe has been going on for a long time.
Take certain cable TV shows, ie Designated Survivor - they demonize guns in certain episodes, the "good guys" are for gun control like the main character US president in the show, the "bad guys" are against it...
Banshee recently on a episode someone got arrested because he had a bunch of black rifles in his basement, no explanation provided or anything as to what was illegal about it (same sort of stuff many here probably have in their safe ).. Same show someone was arrested and sent to jail for illegal possession of a firearm - a pistol, again no further backstory to it was simply called illegal, hmmmm. Whole thing takes place out in the boonies in the show, a place where people typically would own guns. It's like they are trying to get people used to the idea that guns are bad.
Then you take something like The Walking Dead - my guess, those people who produce it are pro gun. Large parts of the show have been about who has guns, where you can get guns, and the whole general idea is you better have a whole bunch of guns & ammo not just for the zombies but for the bad guys who will try to do bad things when society falls apart, you gotta protect *yourself* and all that sorta stuff. They could've created the show much differently but to me I think they are taking the liberty to get their message across too.
