U.S.A. –-(Ammoland.com)- There’s an old joke. If 120 million gun owners who own 400,000,000 guns with a stockpile of 2 trillion rounds of ammunition were the problem, you’d know it.
Today we are the target. The established left hates us. The left-wing media blame us for Donald Trump’s election, and they intend to punish us for it. Make us pay for preventing their push towards globalism. To them, gun owners are Neanderthals who hold back the nation and our social evolution.
What the left does not value is the belief in individual and God-given rights. Whereas we, the American Gun owner, are the most law-abiding and honest individuals in the country who simply want to be let alone.
Let me make this plain. We don’t want this fight… but, the left does.
The left will be relentless, they have called for appointing judges that will nullify the 2A, ban guns and then confiscate guns. They blame the NRA for things it has not done. They lie and misrepresent facts to make their false arguments work.
So things and news changes fast. But as of now, here is what we know now:
- A close acquaintance of the shooter notified authorities, days before the event, of what was going to happen. Nothing was done.
- The FBI dropped the ball on this one, as they did earlier this year. So let’s blame gun owners and the President.
- The police were at the shooter’s home 39 times over the last few years, and no one thought to investigate further. So let’s blame the NRA.
- The you-tube posting and videos were ignored by law enforcement. So let’s repeal the 2nd Amendment.
The left disregards the fact. Anything that gets in the way of their blaming gun owners needs to be ignored or swept aside. The same old script from the left. Never let a crisis go to waste.
Their goal is the confiscation of firearms and the disarming of the American populace.
This fight isn’t going away anytime soon. I’ve seen the numbers on gun owner turn out from November 2016 and know how we shook up the results. Without gun owners turning out in droves Hillary would be President, and your rights would be stripped from you as we speak.
So subscribe to the NRA email update and stay informed. While I favor the NRA, pick a pro-gun group and support them.
Learn from putting money away for retirement a little now or a lot later. Get involved now, and let’s fight to preserve our rights and strangle the left’s war against our rights!
Call your congressperson. Write your local paper. Go to your local politico’s Facebook pages and POLITELY voice your support for the 2nd Amendment.
120,000,000 gun owners united cannot be defeated. Fight now to preserve your rights.

They will quietly pass laws at the state level to increase what causes you to lose your gun rights. In Oregon now, if you contest a restraining order, you automatically lose your gun rights. Our Constitution gets eroded and I see no way to stop it. The Feds have a right to stop and and question you without warrant if you are within 100 miles of a U.S. border. Wait until they tack on another zero to that number and the people will realize they should have said something beforehand. Lincoln was right in that our destruction will come from… Read more »

I would like to commend you on a well written article. You stuck to the facts, and you remained open to those of varying belief in regards to which organizations they financially support.
I wish I could have sent this on the day it was written, but my PC was down. So once again for this article, hats off to you.
Better define ‘Free’ first, Bill. Try not referring to documents and describe what that looks like. Might not look much like our country.
Where is the Billboard that says “Kill the NRA” in Kentucky? What town ,county?
Thomas Paine’s famous exhortation is oddly used here. The “hang separately” part of the phrase refers to the punishment for the crime of treason that the Revolutionaries committed, in the eyes of the British. What crime(s) have 120 million gun owners committed that could subject them to hanging, separately?
Me not right or left as I do not want a party telling me what to do and how to think. Age 65, shooter for over 52 years. Owner, ,Daily Carry, and The NRA helped bring me into Firearms around 53 years ago. On the side half of the country wont want to hear. I have not and will not be an NRA Member again unless they return to their roots, and start trying to attract US and not attack Them. Until then The NRA is a little group ran by little people. The 2nd is very important to me,… Read more »
we are fighting a foreign agenda. it is called the EU agenda.Richard Nikolaus Eijiro, Count of Coudenhove-Kalergi originator of Pan-Europe, which became the EU of today that the so called progressive left have sold out to.Richard Nikolaus Eijiro belief was,” The man of the future will be of mixed race. Today’s races and classes will gradually disappear owing to the vanishing of space, time, and prejudice. The Eurasian-Negroid race of the future, similar in its appearance to the Ancient Egyptians, will replace the diversity of peoples with a diversity of individuals.” this is what the EU wants.The EU has its… Read more »
Again, the DemocRATic communist party NWO cronies are out to use a CRISIS to try and make uninformed Americans FEEL unsafe. Stop all of the hog-wash. Allow LEGAL LAW ABIDING AMERICAN CITIZENS the God given RIGHT of self DEFENSE. Even the Founding Fathers acknowledged that the RIGHT of self DEFENSE was given by the CREATOR. Put the blame for these MULTIPLE mass murders by Domestic and/or Foreign national TERRORIST where the true blame lies. The BLAME and RESPONSIBILITY will ALWAYS lie on the MURDERERS’ heads, hearts and hands. The past mass murders that have occurred in America have happened under… Read more »
The recent horrors with student killings has mobilized the forces to politicize the tragedy in order to implement their attacks on gun owners rights. It is understandable their mobilization in mass, it is the perfect opportunity. However, one observation is never mentioned. We see a mass call to control and take away the rights of every law abiding gun owner; individuals who are totally innocent of any wrongdoing. A wave of hatred against anyone and any organization affiliated with guns. Restrictions immediately implemented without due process or vetting. Yet, when a Muslim terrorist kills, there is an swift and proactive… Read more »
If keyboard commandos were actual activists gun control would never have become a problem because millions would have taken to the streets every single year and been at Legislative hearings protesting anti-gun Bills. They would have burned down the switch boards, both local and Federal and the Internet email boxes would have been shut down. Why didn’t this happen? Because gun owners in general, and keyboard commandos in particular, are among the laziest people out there. They figure if they pay their dues to a National Organization (maybe) that’s all they need do. They don’t realize that preservation of Rights… Read more »
