The mask has officially come off. The same Democrats who want to strip Second Amendment rights from law-abiding Americans are now crying "constitutional violation" when an armed individual confronted federal law enforcement officers with a loaded weapon and extra ammunition.
The Alex Pretti shooting has exposed the left's breathtaking hypocrisy on gun rights in ways that would be laughable if they weren't so dangerous to our republic. According to reports, Pretti was armed and confrontational with federal agents, yet liberal activists are somehow painting him as a martyr whose rights were trampled.
Let that sink in, Patriots. These are the same people who:
• Want universal background checks for grandparents giving hunting rifles to grandchildren
• Push red flag laws that strip guns from citizens without due process
• Demand mandatory buybacks of "assault weapons"
• Call for magazine capacity limits
• Support waiting periods that leave law-abiding citizens defenseless

The Democratic Party's response to the Pretti incident reveals their true colors. When it serves their political narrative, suddenly they're constitutional scholars defending gun rights. When it's your average American trying to protect their family? You're a "domestic terrorist" who needs to be disarmed.
"The hypocrisy is so thick you could cut it with a knife," one Second Amendment advocate told reporters. "They want to take guns from soccer moms but defend armed confrontations with federal agents."
This isn't just political opportunism – it's a fundamental rejection of equal justice under law. The left's selective application of constitutional principles proves they view rights not as God-given protections, but as political weapons to be wielded against their enemies.
Under President Trump's second administration, Americans are witnessing the complete collapse of leftist credibility on core constitutional issues. Their desperation is showing, and it's not a good look.
How much more evidence do we need that the radical left will say anything, defend anyone, and abandon any principle to advance their anti-American agenda?
