Democrat-run states are in chaos.
Bad leaders have pushed policies to their breaking point.
And residents in Gavin Newsom’s state are exercising their Second Amendment rights for this reason.
The libertarian Cato Institute rated California 44th out of 50 states when it comes to gun rights.
The Golden State is notorious for gun control laws, but California residents are availing themselves of their gun rights nonetheless because of the mad rush of illegal aliens into the state.
Unmanageable problem
Since September 2023, approximately 125,000 illegal aliens have been dropped into the San Diego area.
Dealing with an influx of people that massive has obviously had an impact on the local community.
That’s why residents are buying guns to protect themselves.
Cory Gautereaux, owner of the gun store Firearms Unlimited California, told The New York Post, “The problem for people that live around the gun store is the street dropoffs. . .That’s driven business to us.”
Having thousands of unemployed military-aged men milling around the streets is not a good thing.
Keith Carnevale, one of the gun shop customers, told the press, “My wife and I have had home defense guns for many years. Recently, though, with all the stuff that’s happening south of the border and all the people coming over, my concerns have broadened. . .I don’t think it’s just the people that are coming over to try to find work, I think we have a lot of hostile people that are coming over with ill will, ill intent that will potentially cause chaos.”
Carnevale’s adult son Anthony purchased a gun and echoed his father’s sentiments.
He said, “I don’t think it’s just a matter of the numbers of undocumented people, I think a lot of people are concerned about the state of our own government to be just allowing this and why.”
Anthony is completely correct.
Even Democrats are no longer denying the flood of illegal aliens pouring into the country being allowed by government leaders like Governor Gavin Newsom and Joe Biden.Â

Bill Wells, Mayor of El Cajon near San Diego, admitted, “We see the massive amounts of violence that is happening, a lot from the immigrant situation, but a lot from the homeless situation as well. . .People are frightened and I do believe they’re arming themselves more.”
Establishment politicians have chosen to allow illegal aliens to flow into the country while far-left district attorneys are implementing pro-crime policies.
The result is a toxic mix of lawlessness, so citizens are taking steps to defend themselves.
