Over the years the anti-gun establishment has attempted to move away from the term “gun control” to more benign-sounding alternatives such as “commonsense gun safety” or “gun reform.” Their goal of civilian disarmament has remained constant, but the language has changed. Gun control advocates calculate that such shifts in language will further their political aims by obscuring their policy goals.</td></tr></table><table width="600" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" class="table"><tr><td style="padding:10px 0 0 0;">&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" class="table"><tbody><tr><td style="padding:0 15px 15px 0;"><a href="[link removed]" target="_blank"><img src="[link removed]" alt="Member Spotlight: Meet an NRA Virginia mom who is telling voters to ‘watch out’ for Bloomberg’s tricks in 2020" width="600" border="0" style="display:block;" class="respImages" /></a></td></td></tr></tbody></table><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%"><tbody><tr><td style="padding:0 0 15px 0;"><a style="color:#bd1300; font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight:bold; font-size:12px; text-decoration:none;" href="[link removed]">NEWS</a> &nbsp;<br /><a style="color:#000000; font-family:Georgia,'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size:22px; line-height:28px; font-weight:bold; text-decoration:none;" href="[link removed]" target="_blank">Member Spotlight: Meet an NRA Virginia mom who is telling voters to ‘watch out’ for Bloomberg’s tricks in 2020</a></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr><tr><td class="summaryText" style="color:#737f80; font-size:16px; line-height:21px; padding:10px 0 0 0;">Suburban women are expected to play a pivotal role in the 2020 elections, which is why a lot of political groups are attempting to appeal to them. One of Bloomberg’s groups, Moms Demand Action, is styled to fool voters into thinking their extreme beliefs are representative of all suburban moms. And earlier this month in Virginia, this billionaire-funded group spent an enormous amount of money to flip a few seats and win a thin, anti-gun majority in the state legislature. Pro-gun suburban women in Virginia were outraged by the misleading campaign. We spoke with one, NRA member Megan Boland, who says the tactics employed by anti-gun groups in Virginia should serve as a cautionary tale to pro-gun suburban women across the country.  </td></tr></table>
