Mad Moms Reveal Gun Banners True Goal

At a Brooklyn, N.Y., Mother’s Day anti-gun march funded by gun-ban billionaire Michael Bloomberg, some members veered off the misleading “gun safety” script and told the truth about what most in the gun-control movement believe and want.

Amongst the talk of “It’s all about gun safety,” and “This is not a Second Amendment issue,” one woman held a sign that read, “Nobody carrying loaded guns in public is a ‘good guy.’”

The sign, obviously addressing NRA EVP Wayne LaPierre’s statement that, “The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun,” is further proof that the gun-control movement is not about gun safety, but seeks to disarm even those who have applied for permits, passed background checks and taken required training to carry a concealed handgun.

Despite the constant lies of the gun-ban crowd, the truth does come through now and then.

Standing Guard | The NRA Gathers to Celebrate Our Freedom

The momentum we’re seeing across the country is both encouraging and energizing.

Port Authority Doubles Down on Constitution-Free Zone with High-Profile Arrest

As anyone who has passed a basic civics class knows, the U.S. Constitution is the supreme law of the land. All legislation and official government actions are subject to its limits.
