Lawfare is a real thing in America.
Not familiar with that term? It has come to prominence only within the last few years as we’ve watched leftist politicians and bureaucrats in Washington, D.C. and other centers of political power use the power of law enforcement and the courts to harass and to try to silence and punish those with political viewpoints that they disagree with.
Lawfare is what many Americans (maybe most Americans) think is what is going on with the numerous legal attacks against Donald Trump to try to prevent him from running for President again.
And why was lawfare committed against Trump? Because leftists were scared that he would get re-elected.
Which he did.
The lawfare against Trump is bad enough, but it’s by no means the end of the lawfare being hurled at law abiding Americans. Not by a long shot. And two notoriously anti-2A states decided to take aim at a gun manufacturer using lawfare recently. Chase Smith writes,
Minnesota and New Jersey filed separate lawsuits on Dec. 12 accusing gun manufacturer Glock of knowingly selling semiautomatic handguns that can be easily transformed into illegal machine guns through an inexpensive device commonly called a “Glock switch.”
Both states argue that Glock has long been aware of the switchability of its firearms, yet the company has not taken adequate steps to prevent these dangerous conversions.
You can get more information about the New Jersey lawsuit in the video below.
So, they’re suing Glock because they think Glock shouldn’t have manufactured a dependable, relatively affordable firearm that many Americans can afford to purchase, love, and protect themselves with because this dependable, affordable design can be exploited by those with ill intent?
By that logic, the court systems and state bureaucracies in both Minnesota and New Jersey should have been sued and dissolved because they knowingly implemented state policies that could be (and have been) exploited by those with ill intent.
These cases should have never been filed, but now that they have, they should be dismissed for the simple reason that it’s not Glock’s fault if someone modified the design to use it in a way other than the purposes that it was sold for.
But anti-2A zealots don’t care about what’s right. They only care about pushing their twisted agenda any way that they can… including lawfare.
