American Thinker

It’s 2023, and two of America’s deep-blue governors are still having conniptions over the June 2022 U.S. Supreme Court ruling in New York State Rifle and Pistol Association vs. Bruen that threw out the need for a justifiable reason to receive a permit to carry a concealed weapon (CCW). While bound to follow the Bruen decision, both are doing everything they can to sidestep the ruling through legislative and executive fiat.

New Jersey, New York, and California are America’s triumvirate of extremely gun unfriendly states.  They are led by Democrat governors and legislatures that march to a progressive drumbeat, promote economic and social policies onerous to businesses large and small, and force their overtaxed, working residents to subsidize sanctuary policies that have turned their states into strongholds for illegal immigrants and vagrants.

All three governors have retained their emergency powers into the post-pandemic era, reviving them as needed to invoke programs and policies that regulate many aspects of their constituents’ lives.  Above all, they harbor an intense hatred for a citizenry under arms, in keeping with their dim view of the Founding Fathers who understood in framing the Second Amendment that to “disarm the people was the best and most effectual way to enslave them.”

BEAVERTON, OR — Third-grade teacher Ms. Gaywood (she/her) became frustrated during the first day back from the holiday break when she discovered half her students had detransitioned and were no longer identifying as made-up genders.

“You were all beautiful specks of uncompromising individuality, and now you’re conforming to a heteronormative, patriarchal society,” a frustrated Gaywood complained to the group of children who had been fearfully and wonderfully made as unique individuals in the image of God. “What happened?”

Total media blackout of the scariest Second Amendment story of 2022

Stephen Gutowski at The Reload, one of the rare honest voices in firearms-related journalism, published some bombshell revelations two weeks ago. What was uncovered, in my opinion, is the biggest Second Amendment story of 2022. The extent and depth of what happened at the CDC is flat-out alarming.

Gun control activists know that Defensive Gun Uses (DGUs) are a thorn on their side because they make selling gun control harder. Therefore, in what can be uncharitably described as a conspiracy against the civil rights of The People, they mounted a months-long pressure campaign, using influence from a Democrat Senator and the White House, to privately meet with CDC officials to get higher-end DGU statistics removed from the CDC website.

Legal Insurrection

This is getting comical. We already have numerous posts about how Democrat-run media is portraying Ron DeSantis as Worse Than Trump. Perhaps we need to start putting a trademark symbol after the phrase:

DeSantis is Worse Than Trump ™

We also probably need a tag, but we don’t have one yet, so here are some of our prior posts on topic:

Last week’s installment of this annually updated series–enter “guns and liberty 2023–in the SMM homepage search bar to find the entire series–asked a fundamental question: Do human beings have an unalienable right to self-defense? There is no question the founding fathers of our constitutional, representative republic—we are not a democracy, thank God–-believed they do–-they must–-and they acknowledged–-not created–-that unalienable, individual right in the Second Amendment. This was finally–-in 2008 and 2010 respectively–-affirmed in the Supreme Court’s decisions acknowledging, for the first time in American history, that right: the Heller decision, and the McDonald decision, which applied the right to the states, and in June of 2022, the Bruen decision, which made absolutely clear Americans have the unalienable, individual right to keep and bear arms, not just at home, but in public.  What good is a fundamental, unalienable right to self-defense that doesn’t apply wherever one might need it?

It is time to consider a second, related, question:  DOES EVIL EXIST?
