Nothing new...Look no further than the 1960's...Andy Griffith Show. Adult Andy needs no gun, he's too smart. Yet bumbling, incompetent, Deputy Barney only one with gun (aka gunowner) is too stupid to even keep it loaded...one bullet in shirt..
.....That show was leftist propaganda back then, Another modern, leftist, anti-everything-traditional message is the complete absence of a nuclear family on the Griffith show. Barney is single and desperate; Andy is widowed and moderately content; Gomer and Goober were single and whatever; Thelma Lou and Helen were single; Bea was a spinster…I can’t remember whether anybody on the show was married with children. The nuclear family was passé even for Mayberry residents of the early 1960’s. Other anti-family messages: A rare married couple portrayed on the show wasn’t happy unless they were having violent domestic disputes; another couple, with the husband played by Jack Nicholson, abandoned their baby at the beginning of an episode...only thing missing was the gay couple...I never saw the Andy Griffith show in that way. Andy did not carry a gun because he was surrounded by good people. Nearly no crime. Just a great and safe part of '60's America.
