What is Gun Control Really About?

https://youtu.be/lNgyx8gcJNA

Gun control is not about just getting rid of guns across the board. 
### Gun control is not about ending violence with the use of guns.
 
All gun control is simply advocating for, is **concentrating the power of guns into the hands of an elite few** and their minions, and **using that power to initiate force against peaceful people who are just trying to defend themselves.**
 
Who are the elite few?

The politicians, bureaucrats, celebrities, the politically connected… **those who benefit from government power exempt themselves with armed guards while everyone else is left defenseless.**

## Do not give up your right to defend yourself.
### Nobody else has the responsibility to defend you but you.

Next time you encounter someone who is advocating for gun control, explain to them what they're actually advocating for.

With love,

If a person is committed and predisposed to committing an act of violence on such a mass scale, the only thing that will stop them is someone prepared, trained, and capable of defending life. It’s time to tell the liberals that we are tired of being held to the mercy of the criminals and the mentally ill, while we wait for standard emergency response times.

“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” ― Edmund Burke
