Government employees and the media are Texas are now using the assassination of 5 police officers in Dallas, Texas as justification for banning OC of long guns.

I believe that it is only a matter of time before something similar happens in Washington. Then, the media and government employees in Washington will do the same thing here that they are doing in Texas. There is a way to completely eviscerate the media and government employees and cut them off at the knees when they try this. But, 2nd Amendment advocates are going to have to change the way that they think about framing the arguments, and do some things that don't come naturally to them. Here is an argument that will shut down the media and government employees, because it reinforces negative public perceptions about government employees.
1) Statists will claim that this is ridiculous and not even a serious proposal because no rational person would propose disarming the police. RESPONSE: Other countries have disarmed the police (England, Norway), so obviously this is a serious proposal. Since the U.S. has adopted socialized medicine, there is no reason we can't adopt their policies of disarming the police in order to promote public safety.
2) Statists will claim that police don't use blacks as skeet shooting. RESPONSE: Even though the specific accusation may sound ridiculous on the surface, the raw emotion will resonate with black people who naturally fear the police. To reinforce this, remind the media of instances of racism and shootings of minorities. Publicize the results of the research.
3) Even though the entire argument is ridiculous, it perfectly mirrors the logic of the statists, and will educate them on possible outcomes of attacking 2nd Amendment rights.

"When police openly carry their guns, it becomes impossible for citizens to differentiate between the officers who are racists that want to use black people as targets for skeet shooting, vs. the officers that want to legitimately protect the public. Therefore, open carry of guns by police should be banned."
