Crowded Democrat's Presidential Field
Offers No Pro-Gun-Rights Candidates
Not a single supporter of Right to Self Defense emerges
"A new 3rd rail in politics"
Voters get no choice--Only government agents to be properly armed;
No limit to officials' firepower, or raw power.
"Media is not woke on this issue"
The Founding Fathers' fears have materialized, at least for one political party on the American landscape. Left-leaning politicians have decided only officials should have proper guns. It's exactly like the British who forced this country into independence.
"Democrats are running on a host of issues that are actually banned by the U.S. Constitution, which is itself newsworthy," said Alan Korwin, an author and consultant to JPFO. "That is stunning, but the legacy media is silent, encouraging an entire political party to abandon the rule of law," he said. "JPFO has a singular focus in this--preserving the right to keep and bear arms--which no candidate on the left side of the aisle is standing to support."
"What is worse," according to JPFO chairman and CEO Alan Gottlieb, "most have taken a position for some form of confiscation of privately owned firearms, which is infringement by definition," he said. "If they can champion such gross violation of our fundamental charter, what other atrocities might they be willing to back if they gain power?" Non-delegated powers fill their platform, he says.
The idea of guns in the hands of government, without commensurate power in the hands of the people, has all the earmarks of tyrannical government, a point the media won't even touch, Korwin asserts. "It is the new 3rd rail of politics," he says, "a subject deemed too hot for the media to even mention."

Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership, http://www.jpfo.org is America’s most aggressive civil-rights organization, dedicated to destroying the notion of “gun control” as any kind of credible public-policy position. So-called “gun control” does not control guns and doesn’t control criminal behavior. What it does do is disarm the innocent, leaving them helpless in the face of criminals, tyrannical governments and genocide. History repeatedly proves this fact. Founded in 1989 by Aaron Zelman as a response to the Holocaust, JPFO speaks with the moral authority and tenacious commitment of survivors of persecution, and knows that surrendering your personal and family safety to government protection courts disaster. “You don’t have to be Jewish to fight by our side, you just have to love liberty.”
