Enough Is Enough: Guns Aren’t the Problem

Enough of the silent majority being silent. Conservatives aren’t going around shooting speakers from afar with high-powered rifles. Imagine if they did? The uproar would be deafening from the likes of Newsom, Biden, Harris, and every single media type who’s never picked up a gun or did just to say they had. They are not serious gun owners, and they’re not serious people.

When they can’t reason their way out of a fight, they shut down the discussion, period. Look at what they did to Charlie Kirk when they couldn’t silence him. Now they want to ban guns, as though that’s the problem. Read the post below that I wrote back in 2019. America has more guns than people. If the guns were the problem, you’d know it.

America’s Silent Army with 423M Guns

Well, maybe not silent as more and more Americans are speaking out to defend their Second Amendment rights. As the recent ATF report reveals, this group is locked and loaded.

Paul Bedard details the report at The Washington Examiner, writing:

New federal data shows that there are 422.9 million firearms in circulation, or about 1.2 guns for every person in the country.

What’s more, despite years of criticism of modern “assault-style” rifles such as the AR-15 and AK-47, there are a record 17.7 million in private hands, proving that it is the most popular gun around.

And last year alone, the arms industry produced 8.1 billion rounds of ammunition.

The figures are from the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives and were crunched by the National Shooting Sports Foundation, the gun industry trade group.

“These figures show the industry that America has a strong desire to continue to purchase firearms for lawful purposes,” said Joe Bartozzi, president of the NSSF, in a statement releasing the group’s new report.

“The modern sporting rifle continues to be the most popular centerfire rifle sold in America today and is clearly a commonly owned firearm with more than 17 million in legal private ownership today. The continued popularity of handguns demonstrates a strong interest by Americans to protect themselves and their homes and to participate in the recreational shooting sports,” he said.

In response to nonstop attacks on their Second Amendment rights, Americans have decided to get their guns and their training now. In doing so, they have turned themselves into a silent army.

RIP Charlie Kirk.
