The radical left's hypocrisy on gun rights just reached a whole new level of absurdity that would be laughable if it weren't so dangerous to our constitutional freedoms.
In the aftermath of the Alex Pretti shooting, Democrats and their media lapdogs are now performing world-class mental gymnastics to transform a man who confronted federal law enforcement officers while armed with a loaded weapon and extra ammunition into some kind of Second Amendment martyr. You can't make this stuff up, Patriots.
Think about this for a hot second: These are the same people who want to ban "assault weapons," create gun registries, and strip law-abiding Americans of their constitutional rights at every turn. The same crowd that demonizes every legal gun owner as a potential mass shooter. The same Democrats who applaud when the ATF raids gun stores and harasses firearms dealers.
But suddenly, when it fits their anti-law enforcement narrative, they're champions of gun rights? Give me a break.
The Double Standard Is Off the Charts
For years, we've watched Democrats argue that nobody needs a gun for self-defense, that only police should be armed, and that the Second Amendment is somehow outdated. They've pushed red flag laws that strip due process rights from gun owners based on mere accusations.
Now they want us to believe that Pretti's "Second Amendment rights were violated" when he chose to confront federal officers while heavily armed? This is the same party that cheered when the FBI raided President Trump's Mar-a-Lago home and has weaponized federal agencies against conservatives for years.
"The hypocrisy is so thick you could cut it with a knife. Democrats only care about gun rights when they can use them to attack law enforcement," noted one Second Amendment advocate.
This isn't about defending constitutional rights – it's about advancing their anti-police agenda while simultaneously trying to disarm the rest of us. They want to have their cake and eat it too, and they think American patriots are too stupid to see through their game.
The truth is clear: Democrats will twist any situation, even one involving an armed confrontation with law enforcement, if it serves their political purposes. Meanwhile, they continue their relentless assault on the gun rights of law-abiding citizens who would never dream of threatening federal officers.
How long will Americans tolerate this blatant double standard from the party that claims to care about "public safety" while defending the indefensible?
