Fight the Narrative

January 15, 2021

Misinformation is easily spread about people who are concerned about rights- gun rights especially. The opposition to these rights can say about anything they want because they control the narrative. They can make up outlandish stories to paint progun people as violent zealots. There are no repercussions to it. I don’t know anyone who participated… read more »

Not John Wick

The Totality of the Circumstances

July 19, 2020

There is a concept called “totality of the circumstances” which seems to be lost on most. What it means is considering all factors that play into a situation. For example, we have seen clips of videos where police are acting horrifically but when we see the whole video, their actions are wholly justified. The amount… read more »
