Gun control advocate and college professor Fermin DeBrabander isn’t happy about Kamala Harris trying to reinvent herself as a gun owner and Second Amendment supporter, which may be one of the few areas of agreement between him and honest defenders of the right to keep and bear arms. Like DeBrander, I’d much prefer Harris be truthful with voters about her past support for gun confiscation efforts and her support for a collective rights interpretation of the Second Amendment, but that isn’t going to happen. Harris and her team have clearly decided that leaning into her long history of promoting extreme anti-2A policies would be a disaster during the current campaign, so instead we’re left with a candidate who’s supported bans on handguns touting her supposed gun ownership and declaring that you can support the Second Amendment while prohibiting the sale and possession of some of the most commonly owned firearms in the country.
At The New Republic, DeBranander bemoans the current state of the gun debate and the need for Harris to reinvent herself, which he acknowledges is at least partly due to the fact that more Americans in the middle and on the left have embraced their Second Amendment rights over the past few years. The professor contends that “more guns will not solve the problem; they will not make us safer,” but despite his claims, DeBrabander has no explanation for why crime rates appear to be falling alongside the addition of millions of new gun owners across the country.
Harris wants you to know she protects herself and home with a gun; she is her own “first line of defense,” as the NRA would have it. But, as public health researchers note, residents of gun-owning households are more likely to be harmed or killed by a gun—not less. Guns at home are used in escalating incidents of domestic violence; they’re accidentally discharged by children; they’re intentionally fired in suicides. They also get stolen, and end up in the hands of criminals.
Lost in all the hyperbole over crime, and presidential candidates’ rush to prove themselves tough on crime, is a crucial fact: This country is growing safer, with a notable decline in gun violence. Here in Baltimore, where there were more than 300 murders per year between 2015 and 2022, the city is on pace to fall below 200 this year for the first time in over a decade. Boston, recently celebrated by The Economist as “America’s Safest City,” has had just 14 murders in 2024.
Most remarkably, this has happened without measurable changes in gun regulations, which our Supreme Court has effectively blocked. Baltimore and many other cities have invested in violence intervention programs, where mediators negotiate brewing conflicts and persuade belligerents that it’s not worth it to draw a gun. That message evidently works. Kamala Harris should try it. […]

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.
