This is just proof that he is a Leftist through and through.

Its their classic language trapping semantics, trying to get you stumbling over words trying to find a way to say how its different without relying on the obvious self-evidence of it. Its pure debate club nonsense where if you don't have an instant snap back, you lose and must now say they are in the right.

Its extremely obvious what the difference is, but explaining it requires some nuance and a paragraph while his argument is "it says life right there, but you are trying to kill" so he can fire it off in front of a crowd to get them going OOOOOO and call that a victory.
