March for Our Lives Crumbles: David Hogg’s Gun-Grabbers Learn Americans Won’t Surrender Their Rights
freerreport.com ^ | April 02, 2025 | Staff

Posted on 04/02/2025 4:26:01 AM PDT by Red Badger

The anti-gun crusade just took a well-deserved hit. March for Our Lives, David Hogg’s darling of the left’s war on the Second Amendment, has laid off most of its staff—15 out of 18 employees gone in a flash.

After years of preaching gun control to a nation that’s rejected their nonsense at every turn, the group’s finally facing reality: Americans love their freedom, and no amount of whining from Parkland activists can change that. This isn’t a “pause”—it’s a collapse, and it’s proof the pro-liberty, America-First spirit is winning.

Founded after the 2018 Parkland shooting, March for Our Lives rode a wave of media hype, pushing radical ideas like banning “assault weapons” and turning law-abiding gun owners into villains. They raked in millions—$5.8 million in 2022 alone—thanks to sob stories and Bloomberg’s deep pockets.

But money can’t buy relevance. Their big “restructuring” excuse? A “changing political landscape.” Translation: Trump’s back, Republicans are flexing, and the red wave in Congress has their agenda dead in the water. Even their own data shows the truth—gun ownership’s up, concealed carry’s soaring, and their pet laws are stalling out nationwide.

Let’s not kid ourselves—this group was never about “safety.” It was about control. They wanted to disarm Americans while ignoring the real problems: mental health failures, soft-on-crime DAs, and a culture that coddles thugs. Their layoffs hit hardest in the “organizing” department—seven of nine gone—because grassroots support never materialized. Turns out, regular folks in flyover country don’t take kindly to elitists telling them to give up their God-given rights. The NRA’s still standing tall, and concealed-carry permits hit 23 million last year. That’s the real America talking.

The left’s melting down over this, of course. X is buzzing with their tears—some call it a “gut punch” to gun control. Good. Every patriot knows the Second Amendment isn’t negotiable, and March for Our Lives’s flop shows the tide’s turning.

Trump’s victory, paired with a GOP Congress ready to protect gun rights, has these activists scrambling. They’re down to a skeleton crew of three, and their “new vision” sounds like a desperate Hail Mary. Maybe they’ll pivot to something useful—like supporting armed school guards—but don’t hold your breath.

This is what happens when you bet against freedom. Americans aren’t sheep; we’re armed, proud, and ready to defend our way of life. March for Our Lives thought they could guilt us into submission. Instead, they’re broke, irrelevant, and a cautionary tale for every anti-gun busybody. The Constitution stands, and under Trump’s watch, it’s not going anywhere. Time to celebrate a win for the good guys—pass the ammo.

Greta could absolutely kick Hogg’s behind in a fight.

Neither one of them look like they could fight their way out of a wet paper bag.

Hogg is spending democrat slush money like a drunken sailor, and making what? $100,000 or so a year now? Well, he has his, so to hell with everyone else who worked for him apparently.

Wrong. There's no "winning" and there's no "losing." There's only the fight. This war is going to last as long as there's man on earth.

They aren't going to give up. They will, at best, be forced to relax, but they're still developing a new battle plan. And like guerilla warriors, they'll pop up when and where we least expect it. But they will always pop up.

Probably more due to the organization pilfering the money, pocketing it, and other inner org naughtiness

“David Hogg is the male version of Greta Thunberg.”

And the little soy dude has been dining out on his presence at the school shooting. HE WASN’T EVEN THERE. He was on his little bikey on his way home.

Yup. I always say that on any issue when the commies are quiet it does not mean they gave up. They are regrouping, planning, and waiting in the shadows.

Guessing this group’s biggest hit was losing the taxpayer money that was being funneled to them from some NGO. Go, Elon!

***Let’s not kid ourselves—this group was never about “safety.” It was about control.****

BINGO! The lies we have been told since 1962...

No wonder that in 1941, just days before the Pearl Harbor attack, Congress reaffirmed Second Amendment rights and prohibited gun registration. In 1968, bills to register guns were debated, with opponents recalling the Nazi experience and supporters denying that the Nazis ever used registration records to confiscate guns. The bills were defeated, as every such proposal has been ever since, including recent “universal background check” bills.

The lies we have been told over the years...

1962 We ONLY want to register handguns. Rifles will not be affected!
1964, We ONLY want to register ALL firearms, not ban them.

1968 We ONLY want to register all guns, and ban the import of foreign Saturday Night Specials, and 5-shot bolt action army surplus rifles! (they got the ban).

1970, We ONLY want to ban small American handguns. Rifles will not be affected!

1976 We ONLY want to ban ALL handguns! Rifles will not be affected!

1981, Actress Lee Grant on Good Morning America (ABC) screams...”THE NRA IS A RIFLE ORGANIZATION! THEY SHOULD GIVE UP THEIR HANDGUNS AND THEY CAN KEEP THEIR RIFLES!”

1984, they came for the rifles.

1994..When they thought they had banned “As-s-s-ault rifles they did not shut off the lights and go home. they immediately went after their next target, .50 cal single shot rifles “THAT CAN TAKE DOWN AN AIRPLANE!”

They will never be satisfied till they have an unarmed population.

The truth revealed by DOGE seems to be that the pilfering and pocketing money was the purpose of Leftist NGOs and 501 c-3s.

Greta’s blubbery noodles would snap Hogg’s balsawood sticks in half.

He is really ugly when he’s throwing one of his RAT tantrums because the machines in the boys room are out of Tampons. His mommy or the Rolling Stones should have taught him better. “You can’t always get what you want.”

Meanwhile, conservatives are thinking "we've won! 'V' for victory!"

And then we go to sleep and only awaken when the Barbarians are at the Gate. I honestly think that because the democrats caused such an epidemic of crime (with their Soro DAs) in RAT cities and states, that it's the RAT voter who flooded into the gun stores and bought tens of millions of new firearms.

And I think that it's the new RAT voter turned gun owner that has tipped the scales.

Conservatives/patriots have always owned gun and stood for the 2nd Amendment but, something has changed. Gun owners are now overwhelmingly in support of the 2nd. And politicians are scared of the issue.

The only thing that's changed is RATs living in RAT infested cities are preparing to defend themselves.
