A new generation of young political leaders is gaining power in the US by using their personal experience with gun violence to push for reforms they say the US is ready for.
Their ascent is part of a nearly decade-long shift, from gun violence prevention being a third-rail issue in politics that was rarely spoken about on campaign trails, to one that candidates, most of them Democrats, are now running – and winning – on.
This shift is due in part to a collective exhaustion with gun violence, whether mass shootings – like the recent ones at Brown University in Rhode Island and at Bondi Beach in Sydney, Australia – firearms suicides or community violence, that continues to tear apart the lives of too many Americans, said Justin Pearson, a Tennessee state representative who’s running for US congress. …
The rise of candidates centering gun violence is also the result of the growing prevention movement across the US, which has become something of a pipeline for new candidates running for office.

Conservatives, you need to be teaching your children that these anti-gun ‘new generation of young political leaders ‘ are a breed of the enemy’s of freedom they are going to be facing in the future. You need to start letting your kids know these need to be defeated either by resistance or in the courts, or if it comes down to it in the streets (because they will not hesitate to attempt to or actually ‘mobilize’ their left wing violence to go after you to get their agenda goals as we have already seen with today’s aging democrat politicians trying to do). Its not really about guns or ‘gun violence’, that’s just the excuse they use – its emotional blackmail they want to use to get elected, to get power, and once in that position of power to try to set precedence against the 2A and then use that precedence to establish that government can control constitutional rights then using that the rest of the rights will come under government control. The founders warned of this type of sneaky approach to defeating the constitution and country. We have already seen these attempts here in the U.S, for example, California tried to use their ‘gun control’ as a reason to suppress the free speech of publications and people and enter homes when they chose to do so without warrant or probable cause – we saw it in the SCOTUS case Canglia vs Strom where police entered a mans home and confiscated his guns without warrant or probable cause and even confined him against his will at a metal health facility by invoking the ‘care taking’ exception to the 4th amendment (thankfully, SCOTUS saw through this and ruled against the police AND the Biden DOJ in this matter). We saw it in Hurricane Katrina where police entered homes without warrant or probable cause to confiscate guns – not only the 2A violated but the 4th and 5th also.
We have seen this concept play out in other countries today. For example in the U.K., although they do not have a constitution like ours and any rights they have were granted by government, once the government was able to establish control over their ‘free speech right’ the rest of their rights also fell under government control with the police in the U.K. now not needing any probable cause or warrant but just a ‘someone was upset because of what you said on social media’ or ‘someone was upset that you posted a pic of you on vacation in the U.S. and were holding a gun’ ‘so we are gonna just come right on in and search and off to jail with you’.
Governments, be they local or country or state or federal, in the U.S. or elsewhere in the world eventually always tend towards power and control over the people and their rights. In our country, unlike the U.K. where the people like sheep let them selves be disarmed and the tyranny is increasing, in the U.S. we have the 2A and for these politicians to establish that power and control over the people and their rights such that in the future there would be very little to no meaningful resistance to them they need to overcome and defeat the 2A.
Yeah, you conservatives need to be teaching your children that these anti-gun ‘new generation of young political leaders ‘ are a breed of the enemy’s of freedom they are going to be facing in the future.
Do you hate the mainstream media yet? You should hate them even more.
I didn’t realize formerly Great Britain had legalized marijuana use. Legalized marijuana would explain a lot of the fanciful hallucinations articulated in this story. Or maybe Abene didn’t know those delicious brownies she had over the Christmas break were spiked. That’s likely her story and she’s probably sticking to it.

On Jan 2, 1776 : 250 Years Ago, an Irish Immigrant Named the ‘United States of America’.
“On this day, exactly two and a half centuries ago, an Irish immigrant who had become one of Gen. George Washington’s trusted aides in the Revolutionary Army was the first person to use the name ‘United States of America.’
…
Stephen Moylan played a key role in the American Revolution, but like his fellow Irish Catholic immigrant and George Washington’s favorite aide, John Fitzgerald, Moylan had been almost lost to history in the modern era. That is, he was overlooked until, at the close of the 20th century, a letter of his from Jan. 2, 1776, came to light that proved to be the earliest known use of our country’s full name. Now, Moylan is referred to as the man who named the United States of America.

Left wing violence: BREAKING – FBI Stopped ISIS-Inspired New Year’s Attack in North Carolina.

Fox News has since reported, apparently from the press conference, that the New Year’s Eve terrorist attack would have occurred in a North Carolina grocery store. ‘An 18-year-old named Christian Sturdivant, from the Charlotte area, was arrested and charged with attempting to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization,’ it added.
The New York Post reported that Sturdivant also planned to attack a fast-food restaurant with knives and hammers. …

‘Seize the Streets’: Exiled Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi Issues Bold Call as Iran Revolts.
“Iran is in its sixth day of widespread uprisings against Ayatollah Khamenei and the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). …
…
At least two protesters were killed in Lordegan, and human rights groups say several more have been killed in other cities. President Trump threw his support behind the revolution, telling the Iranian leadership the United States is ‘locked and loaded’ should they harm the protesters.
…
Now, Reza Pahlavi, the eldest son of the former Crown Prince Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, who was overthrown in the 1979 Iranian Revolution, took to X to post instructions for the people, and specifically addressing the people of Tehran.
‘My fellow compatriots,’ Pahlavi wrote, ‘Today, I want to share with you a clearer picture of what is necessary and essential to bring down this regime. My words are especially addressed to the people of Tehran, who with their courage have initiated this new wave of the national uprising. The Islamic Republic is striving to prevent the formation of gatherings in Tehran; because it well knows that the seizure of the streets of Tehran and other major cities will seriously accelerate its downfall.’
The post continued, ‘The Islamic Republic is striving to prevent the formation of gatherings in Tehran; because it well knows that the seizure of the streets of Tehran and other major cities will seriously accelerate its downfall. To achieve this, first we must all overcome our fear and realize that if we seize the streets, the regime will quickly lose its ability and will to repress.’
And then Pahlavi provided instructions on how to ‘seize the streets.’

First – suicide by gun is not ‘gun violence’ – its ‘personal self harm’. If a person chooses suicide by hanging with a rope is that ‘rope violence’? How about if a person chooses suicide by jumping off a 20 story building, is that ‘building violence’? If a person chooses suicide by the state prescribed method of doctor is that ‘doctor violence’?
Second – ‘mass shootings’, aren’t ‘gun violence’. Yes, people in a single location get shot or shot at by a mentally ill person but that’s not a ‘mass shooting’ – its an execution of mental illness driven killing (or attempted killing) so its ‘mental illness violence’. But in this country we have let the left wing liberals go to extreme in trying to make us believe that people with mental illness shooting at others is the cause of the gun and never the mental illness and we hear it all the time, for example, “How did he get access to a gun?” or one of their favorite really big lies “If we limit guns then it would not have happened.”. They completely ignore that the mentally ill mass shooter (which includes school shooters) goal had nothing to do with the gun, but rather with inflicting harm and would have still wanted to inflict that harm even if they did not have a gun and in fact the mass-shooters that have lived, or in their writings they left behind, have expressed that even without a gun they would have used something else (i.e. knife, axe, bomb, car, etc…) and still inflicted harm.
Mass killings or attempted mass-killing either happen or are contemplated by mentally ill people almost every day in the United States – you just never hear about them because either something happens that prevents or stops it it before anyone is harmed or it doesn’t happen with a firearm or its called something else. For example, in North Carolina in the last few days an 18 year old was going to commit a mass killing using a knife and hammer and planned on ‘suicide-by-cop’ to go meet Allah and get his share of virgins, the only reason you hear about it is because the FBI stopped it before it could happen and pointed out the ISIS angle but if the local police would have stopped it then it might have made the local news but the rest of the country probably would have never heard about it. Another example, the mass stabbing no one heard about and the news never reported and only resides in a police report – a woman planned to conduct a mass stabbing, was on her way to do it at a local place where kids gather for birthday parties, she got pulled over for speeding and started ranting she was being delayed from her ‘holy mission’ to dispatch kids to the great beyond. Another example, ANTIFA attacked an ICE facility, engaged federal officers in a fire fight, this wasn’t called a ‘mass shooting’ incident but instead was called ‘political violence’ and terrorism. How about gang-violence, when they target other gang members its not ‘mass shooting’ its common criminal gang violence and it happens every day in the United States just usually ‘one or two’ victims but if it gets to 3 (or in the self-serving biased deceptive GVA 4) or more then its a ‘mass shooting’ and the guns fault – but what about the ‘one or two’ victims almost everyday, is that the fault of the criminal gang members then?
The list goes on and on… the deception of terminology or it simply not being known…. the point is, there is this great attempt by the left wingers anti-gun to try their best to peg it as ‘gun violence’ when in reality its got nothing to do with a gun but rather its ‘people violence’ either by criminal wilfulness or mental illness. and laws do not solve either.
Correction for: “Mass killings or attempted mass-killing either happen or are contemplated by mentally ill people almost every day in the United States…”
should have been…
Mass killings or attempted mass-killing either happen or are contemplated by mentally ill or criminally (criminal wilfulness) minded people almost every day in the United States
