One gun grabber went to a wild extreme to get gun control passed.

He was willing to pull out all the stops to implement his radical agenda.

But his scheme was exposed by one journalist who figured out what he was up to.

The American media has an extremely strong cosmopolitan bias. This means that they are almost unanimously located in major cities and hire urban progressives as their journalistic staff.

This gives them a very strong bias towards the viewpoints and agendas of urban progressives. And gun control is one of the top things on the list.

People in urban areas typically do not own guns. There is very little gun culture like there is in rural areas, and they often have a very limited understanding of guns to begin with.

For that reason, many of the journalists who work for these major news publications are afraid of guns and associate them with rampant violence and crime.

But one so-called “gun violence expert” has gone a step further in the pages of Time Magazine and made some ridiculous statements to overtly push his gun control agenda.

According to Bearing Arms, “Anti-gunner Jonathon Metzl isn’t a stranger to the pages of Bearing Arms, though pretty much never in a particularly flattering light.

“While he’s a favorite gun control advocate of many in the media, his arguments are…troubling, to say the least.”

The article then links to his op-ed in Time Magazine, which he is using to sell his book. And the statements that he makes in an attempt to shame Congress into passing gun control are absolutely outrageous.

Here is a sampling of what he had to say: “The ideologies driving expansive gun rights aspire, not just to sell specific products, but to gain power and wield influence in increasingly undemocratic ways. And a heath framework that emphasizes threats to human bodies offers little counter to threats to the American body politic as a result.”

In other words, despite the fact that the Second Amendment is a core part of the Constitution and the American system of government, Metzl is trying to say that gun rights are “undemocratic.”

Here’s more of the drivel that he put on the pages of Time Magazine: “These instances and others highlight how guns represent more than health problems: they are problems of race, of history, of plurality. As columnist Jamelle Bouie puts it, gun politics present ‘a challenge to the very possibility of an open, democratic society.’”

In other words, he is trying to say that people cannot support gun rights and democracy at the same time.

This is an outrageous falsehood. Gun rights exist for the very purpose of protecting our constitutional republic, and our democratic elections, against a tyrannical dictatorship.

Guns exist to give citizens a voice and protect their right to govern themselves.

This is not only consistent with democracy, it is absolutely necessary for the protection of democracy. It is Metzl’s ideology that is actually a threat to our system of government.
