Danny Gonzalez, 1st Marine Division Combat Camera The Democrats in America, the political party that supports disarming their country’s law-abiding citizens and pushes for defunding law enforcement, would run if they were invaded. RELATED STORY Ukraine’s Government Gives Citizens the Right To Carry in the Face Of War Fight or Flight: Democrats Would Tuck And Run 52 percent of self-described Democrats say they would rather leave the United States than stay and fight, and that the majority would prefer to flee the country. Quinnipiac asked voters to answer a hypothetical question: “What would you do if the United States were being invaded?” More than two thirds of Republican voters (68-25) said they would fight and stay. A healthy majority of Independents would also take a stand, 57 to 36. More than half of the Democratic voters polled, 52-40, stated that they would flee. Despite the healthy margins of Republicans, Independents and Democrats, 55 percent of American voters said that they would rather fight than turn their backs and run. “When faced with a terrible scenario that would place them in the shoes the Ukrainians, Americans say that they would fight to protect their country, rather than turn tail and run,” said Tim Malloy, Quinnipiac University polling analyst. Neither would Democratic voters flee in a hypothetical scenario. They and the gun control organizations are working together to destroy the Second Amendment and punish the industries that allow for the right to possess and purchase firearms. Real Time Refresher. The Founding Fathers kept the right to keep and carry arms in law for a reason. Russia’s authoritarian leader Vladimir Putin ordered the invasion of Ukraine by his army, believing that he could control more territory. The Ukrainians had other ideas. His citizens were encouraged by President Volodymyr Zeleskyy. “We will give weapons for anyone who wants to defend our country. “Be ready to support Ukraine on the streets of our cities,” President Zelenskyy tweeted. “Don’t panic. We are strong. We are ready for anything,” he continued, “We will defeat everybody.” Because we are Ukraine.” They have held back Russia’s advances and their leaders gave the opportunity for their citizens to become soldiers and fight for their country. Other countries have also donated or shipped more arms to Ukraine, including the United States. Civilians who have never owned a firearm before are receiving training. Oleksandr Krasivskiy is a Ukrainian sales manager. He said that they receive more tactical training. How to move with the gun. How to use it in building. What to expect in a combat situation. It’s completely new to me. He said that he has never done anything like this before and was never interested in it before. Women aren’t running either. Territorial Army Volunteer Svetlana Kalina said, “Nine days ago, I was a teacher of makeup.” “There is no reason they do this. This is my country, my home. I want to fight. In a very short time, she has made it second nature to operate her firearm. Reinforcements on the Way Much of America believes in the Second Amendment at home and is helping Ukraine defend its country with arms or munitions. Richard Childress, a legend in NASCAR, donated 1,000,000 rounds of 7.62mm ammunition along with AMMO Inc. Vista Outdoor’s ammunition manufacturers of Remington CCI, Speer and Federal Ammunition to Ukraine. Adams Arms has announced that they will ship rifles to aid the effort. Other members of the ammunition and firearms industry are also helping. Childress stated that this is a wake-up call to America and why we need our Second Amendment. “To see the people fighting in Ukraine — it’s terrible, to see the lives being lost over there,” Childress said to Fox News. Elections have consequences It is all too common for people think that “that won’t happen here” but it can. The invasion by Russia is causing it to happen now for the Ukrainians. Canadians are experiencing it now as Prime Minister Justin Trudeau invoked Canada’s Emergency Powers Act to violate Canadians’ rights for 30 days. They face a mandatory gun confiscation deadline. Gun control advocates and their allies within elected office plan every day to destroy the Second Amendment. Gun control takes a different route when legislative attempts to impose more gun restrictions are unsuccessful. Financial service providers, banks, and corporate boardrooms are implementing gun control by discriminating against and inhibiting lawful businesses that provide a Constitutionally-protected right to own firearms. This new angle of attack is being countered by the firearm industry through federal and state-level nondiscrimination legislation. But it will be the voters who decide what gun control politicians do with their restrictions. Voters are supporting more gun control at a record low level, but lawful firearm purchases have reached new heights. Americans are realizing in real time how fragile their rights can be if they don’t fight for them.
