If you’re visiting relatives’ homes with your children this holiday season, now is a perfect time to #BeSMART and ask about the presence of any unsecured guns. Here’s a guide to help you start the conversation: https://t.co/93mDSNqNX1

In typical leftist fashion, Everytown is currently encouraging their busy-body supporters to question their relatives about guns when they visit for the holidays. In a post by Everytown, they put out a call-to-action for their fellow anti-gun crusaders to question their family members about their firearms and ask if they are secured properly. They added a photo of little children’s toys just for effect. Remember, you’re supposed to believe that your guns are putting innocent children in danger.
The arrogance of the political left never ceases to amaze. The sense of entitlement is at a level we’ve never seen before, and the willingness to invade the privacy of others always seems to be at the top of the priority list for these nosy, neurotic anti-gunners.
How would you respond if family or friends came to your home for a holiday dinner and questioned you on how you secure your firearms? Apparently, Everytown is conditioning their supporters to disregard the idea of privacy and stick their nose where it doesn’t belong. Could this create division among families? Of course. Does Everytown care? Absolutely not. This type of entitlement comes from ideas that are being pushed by the anti-gun lobby as a whole. The most delusional of which is the notion that people deserve the right to be free from violence and can violate the rights of others in the process of pursuing what they perceive to be their right. The truth is no one has the right to be free from violence. We do, however, have the right to protect ourselves from violence but Giffords is trying desperately to instill this fear-based entitlement in the hopes of getting Congress to support the pretend “rights” of the fearful over the God given rights of Americans.
In a recent post, Giffords tried pushing this idea in the pursuit of creating an entitlement among their supporters that would give them the authority to question others and control the behavior of gun owners. So, while Giffords encourages support for gun control through fake rights, it would appear Everytown is in the process of creating an entitlement mindset that overrides the right to privacy by getting people to invade the privacy of friends and family.
If Everytown can convince people that they have the right to come into your home and question you on how you secure your firearms, what else do you think they would believe they have the right to do? The anti-gun lobby groups use this entitlement along with a heightened state of emotions, like fear and hate, to motivate people into taking action in areas they have no business. Not only will this create division among family and friends, but it also creates an unjust arrogance and entitlement among the already politically motivated and easy-to-manipulate anti-gun crowd.
If someone thought it was unsafe to enter another person’s home, they probably should not enter the home. Everytown is encouraging people to enter homes they may not feel comfortable in and question the homeowner about their guns. Are we starting to recognize that groups like Everytown really don’t care about anything other than pushing their anti-gun narrative?
What would you tell Aunt Karen if she came into your home and questioned you about your firearms?

Guns are typically secure when no one knows anything about them. That’s why red flag laws are so unconstitutional, there is no defense.

Gee, Aunt Karen, you seem to be uncomfortable here for dinner. Why don’t you go home and rest until you feel better. We’ll even send a Thanksgiving plate with you to enjoy. We’ll invite you to our house another time ((not)) when you might feel better. ((i.e., don’t call us, we’ll call you))
Fellow gun owners, if a family member or other gun-phobic person asks you about your guns, it seems an excellent opportunity to educate them. Why do I carry a gun? I train and carry a gun because choose not to be a victim, I love my family, and I care about the people around me. I never want to be in a situation where I am relegated to watching people be murdered because I don’t have the right tool to stop it. Don’t these gun-phobic people care about people? I urge you to educate them. Maybe even pull out an… Read more »
My grandfather used to tell me about the questions that no gentleman (or lady either) ever asks – or answers. You know, like how much do you make? Anything about one’s guns ..

I have two parts of me that want to respond in different ways. If I care about Aunt Karen, I’d be glad to share with her how I practice gun safety and why it’s important. After all, as gun owners, we’re for handling guns responsibly. This gives Aunt Karen and others an example of a mature adult which would hopefully ease their anxiety and give them a story to pass on to their peers. On the other hand, if Aunt Karen was an obnoxious, arrogant and grandiose pain, then if she brought up the subject, I’d pull up my sweater… Read more »
What would I say to Aunt Karen who came into my home asking about my guns? Aunt Karen isn’t welcome at my home. However, there’s a way to turn this around. All Aunt Karen’s out there are on some kind of medication whether it be Zantac, opioids, or even insulin. Those are dangerous to anyone not prescribed for. I would ask Aunt Karen if she locks up or keeps those dangerous drugs hidden from view. Children are very inquisitive and don’t understand boundaries. Make her understand that her laissez faire attitude about securing her medicine makes her home unsuitable for… Read more »
So, tell me Karen, are you practicing safe sex? Are you getting any? Would you like another glass of whine?
If one of my family members or guest asked anything like that I would have told them to leave immediately
I can recall as a small child going with my mother to visit her mother. Mommom wanted to pick up all the knickknacks on the shelves and my mother insisted “No, my kids are taught NOT TO TOUCH other people’s possessions without permission. If you insist on picking up, I’ll come some other time without the children.” It was an understood rule to not intrude on other’s privacy (possessions or personal matters) PERIOD. My dad always said about being able to leave things out: Don’t leave temptations lying around. If I can’t trust you with a dollar on the table,… Read more »
Thanks for all the great responses!
