Despite the fact that there was no appreciable threat to the government, no violence that rose to that level of “insurrection,” no announced plans to take over the government by any of the protesters, no armed assailants in the Capitol — other than the police who killed show shot a pro-Trump protester to death — all these far-left groups cite the Capitol incursion in 2021 as justification to further attack the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.
When Democrats say that they support the Constitution, and especially when they say “we aren’t coming for your guns,” they are simply not telling you the truth. They will never rest until your right to bear arms has been fully eliminated.
