If you ever needed proof that “gun control” is about “control” and not “guns,” here it is. The gun-grabbers of the world love to pretend that their anti-gun agenda is all about saving human life–but we Second Amendment stalwarts have known for a long time that’s not true. Terrible though the COVID-19 pandemic (and the…
I feel like Beetlejuice: I’ve seen gun-grabbers get mad at their own laws 167 times, and it just keeps getting funnier… The Coronavirus pandemic is doing much more than making people sick; it’s exposing sicknesses that have been eating at the heart of the Second Amendment for decades. Those of us who support the right…
In times of crisis, the Second Amendment stands as a bulwark against the forces of chaos. And also boredom. As more and more Americans settle into a long-term quarantine against the spread of the Coronavirus, we’re battling two equal forces: First, anti-gunners who are hoping to use this crisis to limit gun rights; and second, creeping…
The Coronavirus pandemic may not be the zombie outbreak we gun owners have been jokingly talking about for the last decade or so, but it’s definitely proving something that we Second Amendment supporters have been arguing all along: In times of crisis, all Americans are our own first responders. As I write, local governments nationwide…
As Covid-19 fears sweep the country faster than the illness could ever hope to, anti-gunners are out there buying guns. Let’s help them! One of the best things about the mainstream media’s insistence on misrepresenting guns and gun laws is that, in times of crisis, many of the anti-gun populace will decide that there are…
Personally, I’ve never been insulted by the term “gun nut”–hey, if the shoe fits, I’ll wear it till the leather runs out–but I won’t argue that it was originally coined to try to shame those of us who incorporate guns into our daily lives. One of the long-standing cultural tropes we see in the anti-gun…
In a remarkable twist that’s already electrifying Creepy Uncle Joe Biden‘s race for the Democratic nomination, we here at Freedom’s Lodge have secured the very first interview with the anti-gun former senator’s brand-new press secretary: Cash Me Outside Girl. This remarkable young woman sprang to stardom with her debut interview on Dr. Phil–quickly capturing a…
It’s the morning after the Super Tuesday primaries, and the candidates can go Hump Day themselves. Ah, Super Tuesday, the day when American supporters of the opposition party go and decide which of the anti-gun candidates they want to put against the sitting president in the upcoming 2020 presidential elections. It’s a perfect time for…
A new Department of Justice study proves that “crime guns” just don’t come from gun shows. Period. The Department of Justice recently ran a study that did something unique, remarkable, and unprecedented in the annals of federal-government studies: They actually asked the criminals where they get their guns. Then they had the courage to actually…
Boy howdy, anti-gunners love “red flag” laws like a fat kid loves cake… Anti-gunners are like teenage girls in a lot of ways; in addition to their penchant for hysterical squeals that test the upper limits of human hearing, they’re very into trends. Some seasons they’re all into “Saturday Night Specials.” Some seasons it’s all…
In one of the most hilarious developments we’ve seen since Biden offered the nation’s women a self-defense lesson, it’s recently come to light that anti-gun leading light and presidential candidate Mike Bloomberg has to pay people to say they like him. No, really; he’s paying social-media influencers to post pro-Bloomie memes…just like that one obnoxious…
Is there anything more disturbing than when an anti-gunner‘s “mask of sanity” slips? If you’ve never heard the term “mask of sanity,” it was coined back in 1941 when a clinical psychiatrist tried to describe the public face that psychopaths use to hide the chaos behind their eyes–and although the terms and definitions have changed…
