Celebration 2024: They Tried to Stop You & FAILED.

They did everything they could to stop us.

The mainstream media repeated lie after lie about gun owners and about Donald Trump. Citizens who wanted to discuss it couldn’t, at least not online: Social media platforms were scrubbed, users deplatformed, and posts memory-holed, all at the direction of the federal government. Mark Zuckerberg, head of Meta/Facebook, has admitted to censoring the platform at government request. After purchasing Twitter/X, Elon Musk revealed that Twitter worked closely with the Biden administration to censor conservatives. Google deliberately hid information about the assassination attempt on Trump, as well as the location of polling places (but only if you included the keyword “Trump” in your search).

Then there was the slander. We, all of us, had been smeared as racist, garbage Nazi sympathizers. Our friends and families were told that associating with us made them Nazis, too. They were made acutely aware that associating with us meant they were next to be cancelled.

And we voted anyway, we voted in huge numbers, and we gave Donald Trump an overwhelming, incontestable, “too big to rig” win.

Is it over? No, of course not. Although we’ve delivered a massive repudiation to the gun-banners, as we know, they don’t care about the Constitution or the law. We already know just how far they’re willing to go in order to keep us from exercising our Second Amendment rights (as well as our First). Now, they’re backed into a corner … and we know what happens when rats are cornered.

But we can worry about that soon enough. Right now, it’s time to enjoy the victory. Let’s look at the numbers! According to the National Shooting Sports Foundation:

“Previous reports suggested there were at least 22.3 million new first-time gun owners since the 2020 election. Additionally, some estimates suggested as many as 10 million hunters remained unregistered to vote prior to Election Day, including hundreds of thousands in critical swing states. NSSF jumped into action through our #GUNVOTE campaign to identify those voters and get them registered, educated and active to help elect candidates dedicated to preserving and protecting liberty, freedom and the Constitutional rights of all Americans, especially our Second Amendment rights!

The 45th President of the United States is returning to The White House as the 47th. President-elect Donald Trump’s historic and overwhelming victory, not only in the Electoral College but also in the popular vote, is a demonstrative statement by the American people: our rights and freedoms shall not be trampled upon by a White House administration that deemed our industry ‘the enemy’.”

The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms congratulates the nation’s gun owners—especially those in critical “battleground” states—for “obviously making a difference” in the outcome of Tuesday’s presidential election.

“America’s gun owners saw the threat of a Kamala Harris presidency and took action,” said CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb. “Millions of ‘gun voters’ turned out to reverse the nation’s course on firearms rights, and keep Kamala out of the Oval Office. It was gun owners who also made the difference in Montana, re-electing pro-gun Gov. Greg Gianforte and replacing Democrat Sen. Jon Tester with Republican Tim Sheehy, thus shifting the Senate majority to GOP control.

“In this election,” Gottlieb observed, “the Democrats shot blanks and the voters buried their gun ban agenda.

“But,” he cautioned, “I bet they will double down on gun prohibition because they know that it was gun owners that removed them from power and they are gunning to get even. The fight to defend gun rights is not over and every gun owner who helped win this battle must remember that the war on gun rights is ongoing.”

Gottlieb said Trump’s triumphant return to public office “will become the stuff of legend.” He added that the importance of gun owner participation in this historic achievement cannot be overstated.

“Here is a man who endured four years of turmoil while he was in office,” Gottlieb noted, “and he suffered from Democrat-engineered ‘lawfare,’ and survived two assassination attempts including one which nearly cost him his life. Yet, despite his wound, he refused to call for more gun control, and encouraged his supporters to fight. And that is exactly what we intend to do, because the right to keep and bear arms is what protects this nation from tyranny, and frustrates the enemies of liberty.”

And from all of us here at Guns & Gadgets Daily, we say THANK YOU for keeping the faith, for voting, and for being the best readership we could ask for!
