Why Everyone Should Own A Gun
One girl’s view on why everyone should own a gun.
Common sense advice in less than a minute.
YouTuber BraveTheWorld expresses her viewpoint on “Why Everyone Should Own a Gun,” which includes giving women an equal chance to fight an attacker, the love of freedom and an inherent right to stay alive.
Julia Tourianski believes that while one can argue about gun rights until they turn blue in the face there is only one true and undeniable point to be made: The right to bear arms is inherent in all human beings, BraveNewWorld reports.
“You are alive. You have an inherent right to stay alive. A gun is a tool. You have the right to wield it to preserve your life when under threat,” Tourianski says.
Tourianski is as open about her values as she is on her stance on the Second Amendment and shares a bit about herself on her website, BraveNewWorld,
“I am in a love affair with freedom. I am in the business of anti-politics. I am a promoter of anti-state mentality. I want anarchy to be in peoples’ minds, and I want it do drip into their hearts,” she says.
“Private property, the free-market, non-aggression, self-ownership, individualism…these are things that breed prosperity and peace. Statism cannot exist without the collectivist mentality. The collectivist mentality cannot exist without compliance. Compliance cannot exist without authoritarianism, and authoritarianism cannot exist without lies,” she adds.
Tourianski believes the world is changing and if you “open your eyes… freedom will follow.”
Nicholas Purpura – Patriot Of The Day
Nicholas Purpura is what a real American looks like. His impassioned speech, to local gun grabbing Liberals, only took a couple of minutes but it is straight and to the point.
Nicholas is a retired Army veteran but he is still fighting for our freedoms and rights as Americans. Thank you sir!
We have heard a lot of speeches defending the 2nd amendment, but none come close to what this Army Veteran and Chaplain has to say.
Wall Street Advisor Recommends Guns, Ammo For Protection In Collapse
The fact that this is getting play in the Mainstream media is telling.
A top financial advisor, worried that Obamacare, the NSA spying scandal and spiraling national debt is increasing the chances for a fiscal and social disaster, is recommending that Americans prepare a “bug-out bag” that includes food, a gun and ammo to help them stay alive.
David John Marotta, a Wall Street expert and financial advisor and Forbes contributor, said in a note to investors, “Firearms are the last item on the list, but they are on the list. There are some terrible people in this world. And you are safer when your trusted neighbors have firearms.”
His memo is part of a series addressing the potential for a “financial apocalypse.” His view, however, is that the problems plaguing the country won’t result in armageddon. “There is the possibility of a precipitous decline, although a long and drawn out malaise is much more likely,” said the Charlottesville, Va.-based president of Marotta Wealth Management.
Marotta said that many clients fear an end-of-the-world scenario. He doesn’t agree with that outcome, but does with much of what has people worried.
“I, along with many other economists, agree with many of the concerns expressed in these dire warnings. The growing debt and deficit spending is a tax on those holding dollars. The devaluation in the U.S. dollar risks the dollar’s status as the reserve currency of the world. Obamacare was the worst legislation in the past 75 years. Socialism is on the rise and the NSA really is abrogating vast portions of the Constitution. I don’t disagree with their concerns,” he wrote.
