Opinion

California – -(AmmoLand.com)- The local fairgrounds were discussing renewing gun shows or not. A friend of mine commented that over 80% of all shootings are gang and drug-related. The response was a flat out racist comment, which we will not repeat, from the #Enough activists who want to ban guns.
To be honest, I’m not even sure where to start. Calling someone “RACIST” has been so overdone that when you actually see racism there staring you in in fact is seem a bit unreal. A dozen or so aging hippies in their matching shirts, racists all!
But the anti-gun left doesn’t stop there. ANYONE they disagree with must be destroyed. I took my address off of a Friends of the NRA Facebook page after an anti-gun activist threatened to burn the building we were meeting into the ground with us in it. At a Marriott where we were meeting a white pick up tried to run down a pair of FNRA event attendees in the parking lot while yelling F*** the NRA. Add to this the SWATings, false accusations and threats of violence (anonymous death threats are among the most common) and it all adds up. You see an ever-escalating level of violence on the left. The fact is they’re going to get more people killed, but they just don’t seem to care. There will come a time when they have gone too far, and the resulting pushback will be devastating.

The #Enough movement are Bloomberg funded activists, they’re the boots on the ground he needs to run for President. They focus on suburban white women with a message of school shootings. The fact that 83% of ALL shooting are gang/drug related does not seem to matter. Two underage gang bangers get shot in a drug buy gone bad, and they count them as “babies killed by the NRA,” while it is, in fact, their own liberal policies that destroy inner cities. A rapist breaks into a woman’s house, and she shoots him, they now count him as a victim of gun violence. Honesty and integrity have no place in these people’s hearts let alone vocabulary.
In order for their plan to work they need to focus on the .5% of shootings that fit their model. They need to ignore the estimated 50,000 rapes that owning guns prevent every year. The concept of firearms for personal protection is continually discouraged. They proudly announce their goal is to end gun ownership in the U.S. They call it destroying the “gun culture.” They’re noisy and active and the darlings of the Democrat party.
They ignore that with all the new gun laws in CA, gun deaths rose 18%. The more laws they pass, the more people die. When your goal is political power, what’s a few more dead Mexicans? You’ve got to get white women to vote for you! Gun control is rooted in racism, so too are the modern-day anti-gun activists.
These are the people who want to take away your rights. Banning guns is not about reducing deaths, it is a political slogan they use to win votes from the uninformed. They are liars, whose the only goal is power for themselves at the expense of others; at the expense of YOUR RIGHTS!
In a recent conversation, Professor Jon Lott commented that gun owners don’t seem to care about their gun rights as much as they use to. Is that true? Have you all given up? Are you resigned to give up your right to own a firearm? Have the cabals won?
I’d give you a lot of things to do, but I have to wonder if Professor Lott isn’t right. Maybe you don’t care? Maybe you will just let them take away your guns.
So the decision is yours. Join the NRA or GAO or Guns for Jesus – if that is a thing, whatever. Pick a group and get active. If not, then just pack up your guns and give them over now. The choice is yours.

they’re gonna pass what they’re gonna pass. and I’ll continue to ignore whatever they pass. molon labe.
I’m just waiting for them to set the penalties high enough to make it worthwhile to start mass-producing sten guns in my garage. I’ll hand em out like party favors.
sorry, but all you bad asses who like to write from behind your computer screens how the ‘leftist’ need to bring a lot of body bags are totally clueless to the real world — or perhaps it’s nothing more than a bunch of shill writer girly boys making these post in the comment sections. ‘our’ world is run by leftist who will stop at nothing to destroy the old america and bring in the nwo. it is happening now and it will not stop. your strumpet in the wh is not for any of you — he is out for… Read more »
None of my comments ever get printed so I am putting ammoland.com into Block Site.
This has been going on for over a year.
Lies, misleading information, and emotional manipulation is all the gun control people have to promote their agenda. Bloomberg has already proven he thinks like a dictator, banning 2 oz drinks and wants to ban fast food.
The gun confiscating communists better bring a large supply of body bags.
Here in Arizona we have the AzCDL,one of the best gun groups in the country. I am a member. I would urge any Arizona resident on this site to join up. The state Senate clears any gun bill that comes up with us because they know they can,and have caught hell from their constituents whenever a gun control measure is introduced. Which isn’t very often around here.
I wear my pro-gun T shirts rather often now. All I get is mostly compliments but occasionally looks from people that seem too afraid to say anything. Perhaps that’s because I give them back “the look.”
@ Rev. I try to voice the correct terminology every time I hear some one call us a democracy.
It really irritates me when I hear the democrats refer to us as a democracy because they know very well what they are saying.
Happy New Year to all Conservatives!!!
Progressives, oh well.

“gun owners don’t seem to care about their gun rights as much as they use to. Is that true?”
In my case it’s not true at all. However, I’m tired of repeating myself and I now say,,,let them erase the 2nd Amendment from the Bill of Rights. It will have no effect on me or my actions. The government did not give me the rights and therefor cannot take them away. I will stand my ground and say “Molon Labe”. Kinda like citizen nullification of whatever they say.
