The
2nd Amendment wasn’t a mistake and you’re seeing why now.
Your
leaders are failing you and would-be tyrants are walking the streets,
destroying, looting, burning, and doing violence for reasons that can often be
considered arbitrary. The same people that would conduct hostile takeovers of
city blocks are calling for the thin blue line that stops them to be defunded
or disbanded and elected leaders are caving to their demands.
They
aren’t just caving to them, they’re making excuses. Sometimes even cheering for
them.
Americans
have been watching this unfold and while the silent majority may be silent, you
can tell where it’s been by the crater-sized hole it’s left in the stock rooms
of gun stores, and as such, you can probably tell where the silent majority’s
thought process is.
According
to the Free Beacon’s Stephen Gutowski, America is about
to break a record for the most gun sales in history:
An
analysis of background check numbers by industry analyst Small Arms Analytics
& Forecasting released
on Wednesday indicates
that more than 2.3 million guns were sold in the United States during June.
That’s an increase of more than 145.3 percent over June 2019. It’s also up from the 1.7 million estimated to have been sold in
May, the 1.8 million in April, and just shy of the all-time monthly record of
2.5 million set back in March.
There
have now been an estimated 8.3 million firearms sold in the United States since
March—a record-setting pace likely to make 2020 the greatest year for gun sales
in American history if the trend continues.
“Pretty
much everything is out of stock,” Brandon Wexler, owner of Wex
Gunworks in Delray Beach, Fla., told the Washington Free
Beacon. “We have been doing it since the late ’70s and have never seen
literally no supply available. As of last week, at all major distributors you
could not get any guns. Everything was literally sold out. Can’t even get
hearing protection.”
“Our
sales were within just a few thousand dollars of doubling in June 2020 as
compared to 2019,” said Rex McClanahan, president of Bud’s Gun Shop. “Popular guns
and ammo SKUs have been sold out for some time and now it is becoming a
challenge to keep anything in stock that is among the higher demand categories
… things like handguns, home defense shotguns, AR/MSRs and the associated ammo,
particularly 9mm.”
Gun
sales in America act like waves on a shore. They may recede, but sales will
inevitably return for one reason or another. Now you’re seeing something bigger
happening. A tidal wave has hit and it’s going to flood the country with
firearms in what can only be described as the largest practice of the 2nd
Amendment in the history of this nation.
This
is only bad news for a few people. For the gun-hating left, it’s a lot to start
stomping your foot about. It’s especially bad news for the rioters and Antifa
members who thought they would show up to the suburbs and attempt the same
behavior at someone’s home.
Here
we see what the 2nd Amendment was made for. The right to bear arms that shall
not be infringed is going to be the last thing that keeps our civilization
standing when the police have either vacated their post because city leaders
abandoned them, or they were forced out because those same leaders terminated
them after defunding the department.
When
the police are absent or ineffectual, the citizens will step into that role and
tamp down any attempts to subjugate or destroy innocent people.
In
a way, you’re about to see a massive resurgence in support for gun rights. It’s
a silver lining to this very dark cloud that we’ve been under for some time.
The appreciation of having a solid means to defend yourself will put a lot of
people at ease, and while it may take a few instances before rioters realize
it, soon they’ll learn too.
You
don’t screw with Americans. That was the message the founding fathers were
sending when they created the 2nd Amendment, and that’s the message Americans
are sending with their utilization of it now.
