It wasn’t too long ago when liberals wanted a brutal crackdown on peaceful anti-lockdown protesters. Apparently, people protesting in favor of their right to open their business is more of a threat than anarchists looting and torching said business. The black-masked agitators advance the liberal agenda; the peaceful gun owners stand up to it. That’s why the former is given a free pass to rampage while the latter is painted as a threat.
Gun rights ensure a citizen has the power to defend him or herself instead of being entirely dependent upon the state. They truly are, as Broun said, “liberty machines.” The Founders understood that the right to self-defense was a cornerstone of citizenship. They knew a defenseless citizen is more a subject than a citizen.
Leftists don’t like the idea that people can take care of themselves. They want everyone dependent on the state. They fear an empowered citizenry that can do things without the pre-approval of liberal bureaucrats.
