As a nation, we might come out of this pandemic with several million new gun owners. Does this offer me hope that we will have several million new gun voters who consider the 2A when going to the polls? Nope. The sort of person who has never armed themselves before, and now only buys a... Continue Reading →
Gun Control is Rooted in State Worship
I have found a consistent pattern among leftists who are fanatical Second Amendment haters: they worship the state. Government is their god. While the average democrat typically votes for other issues, guns not factoring heavily into the agenda, the far-left commies that truly hate private gun ownership do so for a singular reason: it is...

A Tale of Two Political Ideologies
While many of the tactical gurus have chimed in on the recent church attack in Texas, giving us all sorts of excellent insights into the lessons learned for personal protection, I am now going to share with you the most important lesson of all that the self-proclaimed “politically agnostic” trainers out there won’t touch.

Want to Preserve Liberty? Staying out of Politics is no Longer an Option
If you are a member of the firearms community there is one place that political talk has no place: when you are teaching new people to shoot. Students or folks that you bring to the range don’t need a diatribe on the those lousy communists on the left or the merits of right-wing America. That... Continue Reading →

Identity Politics, Victimology, and Guns
Throughout the years I have sought to understand how the mind works among those on the far left. I have come to the conclusion that there is simply no way for those of us who believe in the American values of liberty and individual sovereignty to ever understand leftist mindset. However, we can pinpoint the... Continue Reading →
For the Children: The Emotional Marketing of Gun Control
In his fascist masterwork Mein Kamph Adolph Hitler wrote “The state must declare the child to be the most precious treasure of the people. As long as the government is perceived as working for the benefit of the children, the people will happily endure almost any curtailment of liberty and almost any deprivation.” In the...

The True Divide on the Second Amendment
If you are dumfounded by how ignorant anti-gun activists can be you are not alone. If you blame their position on ignorance you are on the same page as the rest of the firearms community. However, if you think that ignorance is the primary reason for this incessant attack on freedom, you are mistaken. Ignorant voters... Continue Reading →
Interview on Lions of Liberty Podcast

I have been a listener of Lions of Liberty for quite a while and I highly recommend them for anyone that takes the preservation of personal liberty seriously.

Nobody Needs an AR15! – How to Crush This Argument
The left hates the AR15 because it is of the same weapon family, and looks identical, to the standard military issued M4 carbine.
