The Liberal Left’s Hatred of the Second Amendment
The Liberal Left is hypervigilant in regard to demanding gun control and registry; thereby, believing that this is the answer to decreasing criminal activity, particularly murder. Statistics do not confirm their belief, since Chicago and other larger cities with “strict gun control” have the highest crime and murder rates in the United States. Champagne socialists (e.g., Hollywood) are on the “guns are evil” bandwagon, considering they live behind high walls with security. Why should they care about real Americans and their right to protect themselves, their families, and defend their home? We must fight for our Constitutional rights, otherwise history could repeat itself with martial law

    Every day there is another media piece decrying the evils of the NRA or assuring the masses that the second amendment should not apply to AR15s because they are the cause of school shootings etc. Yet, each and every story is simply the opinion of someone who is hopelessly uneducated and brainwashed by the emotional rhetoric of the elitist left. Unfortunately, most of the cited facts are either complete fiction or half truths taken out of context and reformed to fit the desired narrative.

This fact was reaffirmed by the D.C. vs Heller Supreme Court decision of 2008, more information can be found here.…

Eighty-one years later and the gun control issue have not been solved. One of the reasons that the gun control issue has not been solved is due to the ineffective background check in gun shows, online sales, and at some gun stores.

    In the past few decades, firearms have had a big impact on society. These impacts have been both good and evil, and have caused controversy on the topic of gun ownership. Some groups, such as the Brady Campaign, would like to see gun control laws take away some rights and restrict others, whereas the National Rifle Association would like to protect gun rights and educate society on the use of firearms. Both sides want to stop the problem of gun violence, but protecting gun rights is the only way to truly insure public safety. Gun control will not be able to stop the use of guns, and it will put citizens in an unfair situation where they cannot protect themselves.…
