Well, the first thing to do would be to wait for the facts to emerge before deciding what the right response should be. Of course, for anti-gunners, any act of violence that involves a firearm is automatically cause to infringe on our Second Amendment rights.

This isn’t the first time that former Detroit Piston Salley has associated gun culture with Americans, as he previously defended Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant’s gun-related celebration, linking such actions to deeply embedded aspects of American culture.

The news media has been sure to bring us tales of woe in an effort to sway the gun debate. ABC New decided to share one of those of a young people’s stories, someone who, thankfully, survived a gunshot, but then they misrepresent data elsewhere.

We don’t have as many shootings as some claim. Sites like the Gun Violence Archive use an overly broad definition to try and sell the American people on this idea that things are worse than they are.

Not only did an Alabama gun owner keep a man suspected of killing a woman from fleeing the scene, he may very well have prevented further loss of life thanks to the fact he had his pistol with him.

It came as a surprise to me that people living so close to a dangerous border were left dependent on the professionals. After Israeli tanks and armored vehicles were destroyed and the border was overrun, these people had no way of protecting themselves.

It should be remembered that this took place in Maryland, which has a lot of gun control regulations on the books, none of which seemed to stop either set of shootings.

Anti-gun groups need to justify their existence. If they get everything they say they “just” want, they’ll shift and demand new things. If guns were decreed illegal and were somehow stripped from existence, they’d simply start taking issue with bladed weapons and demand those be restricted and/or banned.

It was a year ago that a cowardly killer ran into Robb Elementary in Uvalde, Texas and murdered 19 schoolkids and two of their teachers. Anti-gun activists insist that the only way to stop these attacks is by banning and confiscating so-called assault weapons. They’re using misinformation, outright falsehoods, and emotional exploitation to push their prohibitionist agenda.

It can all be used against you at some point or another. Stand against it all or get ready to feel the proverbial (and possibly literal) boot on your throat.

Last week Gov. Ron DeSantis signed into law a permitless carry bill. Looking at the faces of who were invited to be part of this monumental moment in Second Amendment history, women were well represented. Present at the signing, 14 out of the 26 invitees – excluding DeSantis – were women.

The Nashville shooting is a prime illustration that a quick and aggressive response saves lives. The problem is that when seconds count, police are just minutes away. What works best is for armed individuals to be present at the site of a mass shooting.

Many of the shootings included in those numbers are actually gang shootings. They’re gun battles between bands of armed criminals. Those have very different causes than something like Nashville. Unless, of course, you believe the only cause that matters is the availability of guns.

From what we know about this incident, the school security upgrades advocated for by Republicans after Parkland would have done the trick. No one’s talking whether this attack was politically motivated. We have a trans shooter and we have a Christian church. For many people, that’s all the connection they need.
