The Gun Control Industry’s Tired, One-Size-Fits-All Response to Every Tragedy Just Doesn’t Work Any More

[E]very time a tragedy occurs, the focus shifts — not to the failures of intervention, but to restricting the rights of law-abiding citizens. Groups like Moms Demand Action and anti-gun politicians push for Red Flag laws, assault weapon bans and magazine limits, as if taking tools away from the responsible will somehow stop the reckless and violent.

But Traverse City shows the flaw in that logic.

The attacker didn’t use a gun. He used a knife. Would a Red Flag law have prevented it? Would a gun ban have saved those people? Of course not. The answer isn’t to criminalize gun ownership — it’s to crack down on actual criminals, take real threats seriously and enforce the laws we already have against people who have proven themselves violent and dangerous.

This is an important moment in Michigan and across the United States. It’s time to stop pretending the tool is the problem and start focusing on the truth: dangerous people are the threat. And guns, in the hands of the right people, save lives.

    How Thousands of Americans Were Disarmed (And They’re All Veterans).

    We’ve talked about this issue before, with little interest from our viewers, but we are going to keep pounding on this issue until we get the 2A community invested in it. Washington Gun Law President, William Kirk, discusses the horrible injustice done to hundreds of thousands of veterans where the VA simply placed an administrative note on their records disqualifying them from possessing firearms. Mental incompetency? Involuntary committments? Threats of violence? Nope, instead they were disarmed simply because someone else was managing their personal finances. And this has been going on since Bill Clinton was in the White House. Now something is being done about this, but a lot more needs to be done. So get educated today so you can help bring about justice to those that deserve it as much as any American, our brave veterans.

    If a state governor can simply amend the state constitution any time he wants by having his party dominate legislature create the amendment to rig an election by specifically setting aside the rule of law and the expressed will of the people – whats that called and what are the people under that rule called if they let the governor get away with it? Its called tyranny and the people are called oppressed and conquered subjects. Well, that’s what Gavin Newsom is doing in California: Californians Voted To Stop Dems From Gerrymandering. Newsom Is Plotting To Overrule Them.



    In 2008 and 2010, California voters approved ballot measures that amended the state’s founding document by giving redistricting powers to an independent commission, with the latter amendment giving the body control over congressional redistricting. According to Ballotpedia, the commission is required to be comprised of ‘five Republicans, five Democrats, and four unaffiliated with either party.’

    A competing 2010 ballot measure that aimed to repeal the 2008 amendment establishing the commission was rejected by voters, with nearly 60 percent voting in opposition.

    According to CalMatters, one of the Newsom-backed proposals being floated is for the Democrat-run legislature to pass a legislatively referred constitutional amendment in a special election this fall. As described by the outlet, ‘Newsom said … [the] plan that would temporarily set aside California’s independent redistricting commission and bring an alternative map’ — one more favorable to Democrats — ‘directly to the public for approval.’

    The state would then ‘go back in 2030 to original form with our independent redistricting [commission] intact,’ Newsom claimed.

    In other words, the proposed plan would sidestep the independent redistricting commission by presenting voters with what will likely be a heavily gerrymandered map aimed at helping Democrats secure more congressional seats ahead of the 2026 midterms.
    …”

    [its time for you folks in California to wake up, and remove Newsom and democrats from office in the state by vote or courts, or by tyranny removal tools/means if all else fails.]

      Newsom Family’s Nonprofit Scheme: Funneling Taxpayer Millions to Her Personal For Profit.



      If you think Gavin Newsom is slimy, his wife (or partner) may be just as bad.

      So, she takes money from taxpayers and then feeds it to her ‘for profit’ movie company and then pays herself a hefty salary. Basically, she is making woke after school specials and making millions. Nice work if you can get it.

    Gun-Free Zones Like Fort Stewart Invite Mass Shootings.



    On Wednesday, another mass shooting unfolded — this time at Fort Stewart military base in Georgia. A male Army sergeant, who illegally carried a gun on the base, wounded five soldiers before others tackled and disarmed him.

    Typically, only authorized designated security forces such as MPs are armed on duty. Any other soldier caught carrying a firearm faces severe consequences, ranging from a rank reduction, court-martial, potential criminal convictions, dishonorable discharge, forfeiture of pay, and even imprisonment.

    So why would a soldier risk such harsh penalties? Because if you’re the attacker, planning to murder fellow soldiers, gun control laws won’t stop you. If you expect to die in the assault, as most mass public shooters do, extra years added to your sentence mean nothing. Even if you survive, you already anticipate multiple life sentences or the death penalty.

    But for law-abiding soldiers, those same rules carry enormous weight. Carrying a gun for self-defense could turn them into felons and destroy their futures. These gun control policies disarm the innocent while encouraging a determined killer to attack there as they will know that they are the only ones who will be armed.

      I was watching the “news” this morning and they couldn’t wrap their heads around how he got a weapon on base. I just laughed and told the wife he got it on base the same way that my gun gets places, on my belt.

      If you are intending to kill people, then what’s another charge

    Left wing is all about hate and violence and self-loathing and death and…eugenics… its almost like the left wing and their democrat politicians are being instructed by Hitler himself to create their ‘utopia’ of a ‘pure race’ : [left winger] CEO Of IVF Eugenics Company ‘Orchid’ Claims Culling Embryos Is A ‘Positive Moral Choice’.



    No amount of doublespeak or question dodging from Siddiqui can disguise the true intentions of eugenics-based companies like Orchid.

    Mere weeks after the corporate media lost their minds over a playful “great genes jeans” ad, in vitro fertilization (IVF) connoisseur and Orchid CEO Noor Siddiqui used an interview with the New York Times’ Ross Douthat to argue that only humans with certain genes, those deemed acceptable, should get a chance at life outside of the womb.

    In response to democrat and left wing policys to let crime run rampant in D.C. Trump starts federalizing D.C. : Trump Unleashes Federal Law Enforcement to Secure DC Streets.



    This move follows Trump’s threat to federalize the city’s police force, prompted by a violent attack on a former Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) staffer.

    That staffer, Edward Coristine, aka “Big Balls,” was attacked in Washington, D.C.’s Logan Circle neighborhood in the early morning hours on Sunday while defending a woman from an attempted carjacking.

    Critics contend that crime in Washington, D.C. has reached historically low levels. That data, however, as in most cases involving ‘Sanctuary’ cities run by leftist politicians, suffers from accuracy issues. You can’t document crime statistics when a good chunk of your population is, as Democrats like to say, ‘undocumented.’
    …”

    [note: In case no one knows it yet – in leftist ‘sanctuary’ jurisdictions ~ 83% of the crime is not reflected in their jurisdiction statistics because they specifically exclude most if not all illegal alien criminals crimes from their statistics]

    Victim of Infamous Cincinnati Attack Speaks Out, Counters DEI-Supporting Police Chief’s Claims.



    Cincinnati beatdown victim:

    We were just leaving, waiting for our Uber — no fights inside, no problems. Outside, we were surrounded. My friends were attacked, one beaten within an inch of their life. I stepped in to help. Then came the racist comments — ‘you white [expletive] words,’ ‘white people shouldn’t be out here,’ ‘you’re gonna go night night.’ Some attackers had rap sheets a mile long. The man who punched me had just gotten out of jail months earlier. They should have never been free to do this.’

    Left wing democrat kabuki political theater…

    “Oh no. Maura Healey says President Trump and Gov. Abbott have left her with no choice.

    She MUST gerrymander Massachusetts to get rid of all the Republican Reps.”

    [hint: She knows her state’s map is 9-0 blue. Massachusetts has no Republican Reps. As of August 2025, Massachusetts has no Republican representatives in the U.S. House of Representatives; all nine current representatives are Democrats.]

    Its not just the “Gun Control Industry’s Tired, One-Size-Fits-All Response to Every Tragedy”. Its the entire far left wing and their democrat politicians trying to create as much chaos as possible to keep an anacro-tryanny going, their unconstitutional gun control is just part of it. Its all interlinked.
