'This is why': Kurt Schlichter drops the hammer on the 'ban assault weapons' argument after Israel attack

'Why do you NEED powerful guns?'

Ah, the routine demand from anti-gun Democrats who simply refuse to consider self-defense as a valid reason for exercising rights.

Well, following the brutal Hamas attack on Israel, with footage of terrorists roaming the streets in Israel, Kurt Schlichter explains EXACTLY why.

Here’s why we own assault rifles https://t.co/0d4ZWZ9iD1

AMEN!! My first thoughts waking up to this. This could be our border. https://t.co/DAPuvfpzVE

Another reason for the 2nd amendment. @potus please watch. https://t.co/2ZaMOFcuYq

The left genuinely can't seem to grasp the idea that average people NEED to be able to defend themselves if attacked. This horrific ongoing event demonstrates why it's so important.

I've often been asked why I would want to own an AR 15. This is why https://t.co/EJNgGuD1tE

Exactly, this is why no other nation would dare come into our country, they better bring everything they got, because we have millions of guns and we can’t wait to defend what’s ours.

This is what happens when a population gets too comfortable, not carrying weapons on a daily basis.
Never ever get comfortable

Look at these images and now imagine civilians not having access to weapons of war.

— Albert Latham (@albert1776) October 7, 2023

Every time Democrats demand citizens don't need 'weapons of war.'

You know if the unAmerican Left had its way they’d be doing the same here. . . https://t.co/zuMLMOBHKM

This right here is why we can NEVER give up our guns! https://t.co/wfHTcohFKa

This is why I own "Weapons of War", I can arm my family, my friends, neighbors and have a backup for myself. A Belt Fed and a Red Dot would have done nicely here. https://t.co/H1R7um7HMq

Never say it can't happen.

They are grabbing Israelis from their homes, and dragging them through the streets… https://t.co/jmiFNRlSfU

Note that it only takes a couple dozen armed men to take over an entire neighborhood.. maybe even a whole town. https://t.co/rXEIGkObVw

"I don't know why anybody would need an AR-15". https://t.co/5neTpRmdEV

Another reason we must never surrender our arms. The Biden Admin has allowed how many thousands of these men into our country? https://t.co/68ot2TqnqJ

Our rights can never be compromised. Hopefully Americans realize how important the 2nd Amendment is to their personal safety and the protection of the whole country.
