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.
A Republican judge should make Hogg rehire the fired staff. That is what judges do now.
The “gut punch,” should be followed by a knee to the nards.
Sounds like commierado with all the commiefornia transplants moving here and ruining the state with their insane unconstitutional “laws”.
