When fear is weaponized, freedom is the first casualty.

This week, Democratic officials raised alarms about Iranian terror sleeper cells operating inside the U.S. homeland. Suddenly, after years of border neglect, sanctuary policies, and open-door rhetoric, they’re concerned?
Forgive my skepticism. The same party that let them in is now telling us we need to be scared—and disarmed.
Make no mistake: this is a coordinated playbook we’ve seen before, and history does not look kindly on the populations that failed to pay attention.
🧠A History Lesson They Hope You Forgot
Disarmament has never been about public safety. It’s about public control.
Let’s look at just a few examples:
- Nazi Germany (1930s): Gun registration began under the Weimar Republic. When Hitler took power, those lists made it easy to disarm political opponents and Jewish communities before the persecution began.
- The Soviet Union: Stalin disarmed citizens, then murdered tens of millions in purges and famines. Resistance wasn’t an option once the people were disarmed.
- Mao’s China: Firearms confiscated from rural peasants helped pave the way for the Cultural Revolution—a bloody, decade-long nightmare.
It’s a common thread: the government offers “safety” in exchange for your rights—and then delivers neither.
🔥 “But This Time It’s Different”?
Is it?
We’re told not to worry about rising crime, cartel activity, or foreign actors walking across our borders—but also that we should surrender our AR-15s “for public safety.”
We’re told the state will protect us—then watched cities burn while police stood down.
We’re told only the military needs weapons—by the same leaders who left $7 billion in gear to the Taliban in Afghanistan.
Let’s get real. Disarmament doesn’t protect Americans. It protects corrupt power.
📉 The Data Backs It Up
John Lott’s More Guns, Less Crime outlines how law-abiding gun ownership reduces violent crime. The FBI’s own stats show that guns are used defensively up to 2 million times per year in the U.S.
Meanwhile, countries that stripped gun rights—like Venezuela or Myanmar—fell into chaos, and the people had no means to resist.
🗣️ It’s Time to Speak Up
I’m not saying terror threats aren’t real—they are. But using those threats to justify dismantling the Second Amendment? That’s the real danger.
We don’t need to give up freedom to fight foreign enemies. We need to protect it more fiercely than ever.
đź“Ł What You Can Do
- Share this article. Wake people up.
- Call your representatives. Demand secure borders and Second Amendment protections.
- Support pro-liberty candidates, local and national.
- Refuse to comply with unconstitutional orders. Peacefully, lawfully—but boldly.
The Constitution isn’t outdated. It’s under attack.
Let’s defend it—together.
