Corruption and Anti-Gun Sentiment Seem to Go Hand-in-Hand

Corruption and Anti-Gun Sentiment Seem to Go Hand-in-Hand
SHARE

Corruption is far too common in the United States. It’s not caught nearly enough, but there are reasons to believe that a large number of public officials are corrupt as hell.





The only difference between us and the third-world hellholes is that they don’t really try to hide the corruption.

Now, I also think a lot of people sling the term “corrupt” without cause, too. Far too many seem to think anything they dislike is corruption when it’s really not. Anti-gunners, for example, like to spin that pro-gun politicians are only pro-gun because of NRA money supporting their re-election campaigns.

That’s simply not true.

But a lot of anti-gun politicians are actually corrupt. Not because they take gun control groups’ money, but they’re literally corrupt.

“Michael Madigan sentenced to 7.5 years in prison for corruption convictions,” the Chicago Sun-Times reported Friday. “[T]he country’s longest-serving state House leader, [he] served as speaker of the Illinois House from 1983 until 2021, with the exception of two years. Along the way, he developed a reputation as an all-powerful political wizard who wielded vast influence over laws affecting nearly every aspect of life in the state.”

So, another corrupt Democrat Chicago politician is guilty of bribery. Talk about a “dog bites man” story. Do we even need to ask where he stood on guns?

…

There have been so many reports of CRIMINAL ANTI-GUN DEMOCRATS who have ended up “hoist with their own petard” and declared prohibited persons themselves, with examples like Bob Menendez, Leland Yee, Chicago’s own Ed Burke, or any number of Michael Bloomberg’s Mayors Against (Your) Guns, that it’s fair to assume none of these people are atypical.

They would make for an interesting case study in projection, to determine why so many zealots who can’t (or more likely won’t) control themselves are so monomaniacally obsessed with controlling the rest of us.





Writer David Codrea notes Madigan’s various anti-gun sins, which are extensive enough to make his case, and then he drops the hammer on the other examples.

Leland Yee will always be my favorite example. He was an anti-gun lawmaker who was convicted of gun trafficking. I mean, you just can’t make that stuff up. It’s a prime example of just how hypocritical many anti-gunners actually are. He was illegally providing guns to criminals while trying to disarm law-abiding citizens. It’s disgusting.

But all of those cases are, in fact, anti-gun politicians who turned out to be corrupt pieces of garbage.

And these are just the ones who got caught.

Now, is it that anti-gun politicians are just the ones too stupid to get away with it, or are they the ones who are predominantly engaged in corruption? I don’t know, and I don’t know how much it matters.

What matters is what we know definitively right now.

While anti-gunners had a field day with Wayne LaPierre’s shenanigans, and those were extremely problematic and created a real headache for the NRA, he was just one guy.





They’ve got an army of such folks.

Personally, I think the reason they oppose private gun ownership is that criminals don’t like the idea of armed citizens.
