In today’s politically charged anti-gun environment in Washington D.C. and here in our own state, it has become unpopular to have a pro-gun stance in the public arena. The reality is that we are losing our freedoms faster than anytime in history, because we’ve allowed politically correctness and intimidation by anti-gunners to overtake common sense and reason.
The Obama Presidency has systematically begun a series of ‘fundamental changes’ in our current laws that will dramatically change the freedoms we have up until now, taken for granted.
- Homeland Security and the TSA are violating our personal rights at our airports through demoralizing searches. In the name of security, we just have to give up freedom. (Bush Era, but reinforced by Obama)
- Homeland Security and the TSA are now conducting random check points in cities across America.
- Homeland Security and the military are doing combat drills in our cities. Without warning, Blackhawk helicopters (Video) can be seen flying between buildings and shooting blank rounds over an unsuspecting pubic.
- National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) allows for the indefinite detention of American Citizens without warning or trial.
- Unmanned drones are flying above United States recording citizens behaviors and possibly carrying weapons.
It is time to speak up! Our actions in the political arena are great, but simply voting and hoping are no longer enough. It is time for all of us to speak up. We need to let our voices be heard and we can’t be politically correct. Tim Schmidt, the founder of the US Concealed Carry Association recently wrote a article that I thought you should see.
Here it is:
Political correctness is a poison.
By Tim Schmidt

The sad truth is that many well-meaning people drink this poison every day and are completely numb to it. They have built up such a strong immunity to this poison that they actually believe it’s natural and acceptable. This, my friends, is tragic.
The fact that you subscribe to the Concealed Carry Report is probably a good indication that you are not blinded by political correctness. After all, we feed our readers a steady diet of information that would make the politically correct crowd lose their minds! And we aren’t about to change…
More than ever before, we are in a battle of values with a group of people whose values and beliefs are anemic and illogical. Never before has our nation been so full of people who prefer to have others do for them what they should be doing for themselves. This is true in every sphere of life, but has become even more noticeable in the gun debate that has deluged our country.
Self-reliance and personal responsibility are two of the most important attributes you can posses in this life, and many of the politically correct people on the other side of this gun debate simply lack both of them. To think that the police or the state can keep you safe in the heat of crisis is a pipe dream that I hope many Americans wake up from sooner than later.
The time has come for self-reliant, responsible citizens like you and me to lend our voices to this noble cause like never before. Our natural born rights are more than worth fighting for, and what we could lose by remaining quiet or neutral is too valuable to lay down over.
We’ve all heard it a million times, but it’s as true now as it was the day Edmund Burke said it: “All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.”
Those who seek to strip us of our rights are nothing more than politically correct clones that are paving the way for evil to triumph over the innocent. Will you let them win this war, or will you cast aside political correctness and stand for what you believe?
Take care and stay safe,
