Gun control advocates do not just oppose civilian gun ownership; they also argue that guns in the hands of police make people less safe.
In January, a Border Patrol agent in Portland shot and wounded two Venezuelan nationals who belonged to the violent Tren de Aragua gang after they allegedly tried to run agents over with their vehicle. In response, Kris Brown, president of Brady United, tweeted the following:
“We don’t know the details behind the shootings of 2 people by a Border Patrol agent in Portland. But I know one thing for certain: whether in the hands of federal officers or everyday Americans, guns do not make us safer. Yet Trump is reshaping our country based on this lie.”
What were the Border Patrol agents supposed to do when an illegal alien with a criminal record tries to run over an agent? How are unarmed agents supposed to apprehend and detain violent gang members?
Currently on its website, Brady United explains: “Why Police violence is gun violence … As we work to tackle the gun violence epidemic in America, we cannot ignore police violence or its devastating effects.”
The same claim is made repeatedly by other gun control groups.
“Police violence is gun violence and that’s why our movement must be responsive as well,” declares Shannon Watts, president for Moms Demand Action.
“Police violence is gun violence,” proclaims Gabby Giffords, with the Giffords Law Center.
These last two statements are from 2021 and 2020, so their opposition to police having guns isn’t a new focus.
Gun control groups sometimes openly acknowledge their goal of banning all guns. In a 2023 interview with Time magazine, for example, Gabby Giffords – who heads the Giffords Law Center – answered a question about her goal by saying: “No more guns.”

Not even. No guns for the PoPo.

Y3ah well gun control advocates are the kinds of idiots who would jump,over a fence into a lion enclosure and think that if they talk nice to the lions that they won’t get eaten.
Every gun control moron should be required to spend a few months in p4ison with th3 worst criminals imaginable. Maybe they will get some common sense knocked into them!
Come and take it.
And besides that, compromising with bad policy is like adding a bit of sewage to your drinking water.
You have to get it in your head, it is not possible to persuade them using facts or reason. They aren’t going to come around, or have an epiphany. Wasting your time using logical debate here. They are crazy, it’s like trying to explain Calculus to your retriever. In some cases, they have a death wish.
Democrats take over? They will pad the SCOTUS, get rid of the filibuster, and get gun control through. They will open the borders again too.
This is what we can see coming. This time around was that important.
Anyone with half a brain............ We know. If not for guns, the murder rate would be less than zero right? 😠🖕
yeah but at least theyll be in prison lol
You forget the President has a pen and an EO
While we call them “Nutjobs”, inane, crazy, lunatics...they keep winning.
They own everything:
from K through post-graduate
all the Fortune 500
all bureaucracies (city, county, state, federal)
mass media
high tech (Bezos, Zuckerberg, all of Silicon Valley)
Hollywood.
I guess conservatives have talk radio...wow.
Oh, and Trump didn’t win in a landslide; he barely won (thank God he won) the popular vote with only 50.5%.
In any case, it’s idiots like us that continue to refer to these malevolent, malicisous, sinister, EVIL bastards “Nutjobs.”
Were Hitler and Goebbels Nutjobs? NO! In fact, in some ways they were brilliant...EVIL...but smart; they knew that “the people” have a lot of sheep DNA in them.
And that’s where we are. Bread and Circuses...keep throwing Chick-fil-As and NFLs at us and we’ll be good, happy, well behaved little citizens...hesitant to call these Leftist historically EVIL Bastards what they really are.
For socialism and islam to over America gun control is absolutely necessary for the success of an Abyss of dismal existence to develop. Castro and Cuba plus Venezuela and Maduro are the best recent examples.
They can override a veto. An EO only works while you hold the executive branch.
Losing in the midterms would be devastating for us.
One thing I know for certain: he's wrong.
Perhaps the biggest problem in Iran is that the good people of Iran don't have the guns to resist the regime's guns.
If the U.S. comes under similar nut-job rule and takes the guns, there's no one to save us. The whole world would be under dictatorial control.
What a huge lie! The left has always wanted the govt to have the exclusive privilege to be armed along a select few. The 2nd amendment isn’t negotiable.
The United Kingdom is the canary in the coal mine.
First they come for guns.
Then Freedom of Speech.
Then Trial by Jury.
They are patient and use creeping incrementalism.
Come and Take Them!
Then end game is to put racists, bigots, misogynists, and White Supremacists in re-education camps. Hillary dubbed them “fun camps”.
Which is why the Founders were GOD INSPIRED MEN.
Always remember this one thing I believe is definitely the truth. When guns are outlawed, only criminals will have guns. Prove me wrong.
