Texas Democrat Prime Example of Why We're Never Giving Up Our Guns

The purpose of the Second Amendment is the defense of this nation. Our Founding Fathers were generally smart men, and they recognized that defending our nation might mean fighting our government. It's part of why they were largely distrustful of standing armies in the first place and preferred the militia.

But, as things have chanced in the last 250 years, a lot of people figure that the purpose of the Second Amendment has also changed. They think it's about hunting or, if they're feeling charitable, about personal protection, and not anything else. It's why they want to take certain guns from us--at least, that's the rationale we get from them now, though we know everything is in their sights.

We're not giving up jack squat, and a Texas Democrat in the midst of a runoff is a prime example of why.

The top Democrat in a southern Texas House race, sex therapist Maureen Galindo, has called for transforming an immigration facility into a “prison for American Zionists” equipped with a castration center.

Galindo’s campaign made a vile pledge that she will introduce legislation to that effect if she gets elected to Congress after baselessly alleging her Dem runoff foe was “being paid to put Jews and Mexicans in concentration camps via Zionist trafficking networks.”

“When Maureen gets into Congress, she’ll write legislation so that all Zionism and support of Zionism is undoubtedly Anti-Semitic, since it’s Zionism harming the Semites,” her campaign wrote on Instagram last week.

“She’ll turn Karnes ICE Detention Center into a prison for American Zionists and former ICE officers for human trafficking. (lt will also be a castration processing center for pedophiles which will probably be most of the Zionists).”

Now, castrating pedophiles is a rare moment of me agreeing with a Democrat on something, but it's literally every other word she says that's the problem.

Zionism is simply the idea that Israel has a right to exist as a modern nation. I get that some people disagree with that position, and we're not here to debate whether it's the right concept or not. It is what it is, and Galindo is talking about writing legislation to round up everyone who holds a very particular belief, including a whole lot of Jews, and herding all of them into the very camp her party claims are concentration camps.

While she's not the nominee as of yet--runoff elections are May 26th--the fact that someone this mentally damaged is this close to being the nominee is troubling, especially when you think about Graham Platner in Maine, who is likely to be their nominee for the Senate.

This is a fringe belief, though. I haven't seen all that many people who agree with Galindo here, and that's the good news, but I can't help but acknowledge that I'm also not seeing loud denouncements from party leaders, either.

Regardless, this is someone who thinks it's perfectly acceptable to round people up based on their political opinions. Right now, it's "Zionism," but do you really think it would stop there?

Hell. No.

So, I'm going to hold onto my AR-15s. I'm going to hold onto my standard capacity magazines. I'm going to urge everyone to do the same, and to stand up to these state legislatures that seem to think that this fringe belief being expressed by a fairly promenent Democrat isn't anything to worry about. I'm sure the years of others talking about going after their political opponents or "breaking the spirit" in the coming years is nothing at all to be concerned about and we won't need our guns to fend off these monsters.

But I'm keeping it ready just the same.

You want me to give up my guns and trust my government? That's never going to happen, because there are people in this country who support some truly awful people who want to hurt me and mine, and they're not going away anytime soon.
