J.D. Martinez’s Second Amendment Stance Isn’t ‘Controversial,’ It’s Patriotic
The Federalist ^ | 08-30-2018 | David Harsanyi

Posted on 08/30/2018 10:15:59 AM PDT by Kevin in California

Someone recently dug up an old pro-Second Amendment Instagram post by Boston Red Sox star J.D. Martinez, in which the potential Triple Crown winner posted a picture of Adolf Hitler featuring the quote, “To conquer a nation, first disarm it’s [sic] citizens.” Martinez captioned the post, “This is why I always stay strapped! #thetruth.”

For the last 50 years the so-called “news” media has reserved the word controversial for people and ideas who stand in the way of the neo-Bolsheviks

I don’t like the Red Sox, but I fully support Martinez on this.

Tsk, tsk... Doesn’t Mr. Martinez realize the public figures are not permitted to have a contrary (read: “controversial”) opinion?

Attacking everyone whenever they say something that the media doesn’t like starts civil wars.

Do they want to start a civil war ? Because that’s how you get civil wars.

I find it funny that neither JD nor the Hitler quote he posted had the word "gun" in it. Only "disarm".

Isn't a crossbow an armament? Isn't a baseball bat an armament? Isn't a knife an armament?

The oh-so-smart-Liberals immediately go to the anti-gun argument.

Perhaps JD is always "strapped" with a K-bar knife in a supple leather sheath? I know, not likely but...if one wants to enter into an argument over something so silly, one must define the language and words used. Let's be precise.

The Left hates you and wants you dead.

Plan accordingly.
