Your Tax Dollars Are Subsidizing Your Disarmament
BY Herschel Smith4 years, 11 months ago
Millions of American tax dollars are being funneled into an organization that’s pushing for more gun control in the United States—and has been for some decades. The organization, the Police Executive Research Forum (PERF), ostensibly supports a cause near and dear to the hearts of almost every conservative American: supporting law enforcement officers throughout the country.
But, while the organization does some admirable work assisting the families of slain officers who have fallen in the line of duty, or attempting to mitigate the rising suicide rate among officers, much of PERF’s real attention is focused on destroying the Second Amendment rights of private citizens. They’re also keenly interested neutering the ability of law enforcement agencies throughout the country to effectively police and protect the communities under their wing. And that’s something that constitutionally minded Americans should be paying attention to. In short, your hard earned dollars are being taxed by the government and then funneled into an organization that desperately wants to disarm you and render impotent the brave men and women who serve your community.
The article is short on links, so I did a little research of my own, and ended up with this: “Key Findings and an Action Plan to Reduce Gun Violence.” In it, you’ll find advocacy for the following.
- Universal background checks
- Red flag laws
- Limits on magazine capacity
- Banning of future sales of semi-automatic weapons to citizens.
- Bump stock ban.
In short, a laundry list suitable for a Michael Bloomberg wet dream of gun control, staffed by professional cops, and all underwritten and funded by your tax dollars.
Because the controllers are all smarter than you and know what’s best for you. You are the raw material for their globalist, Utopian designs.

Police associations and police unions support many left wing causes. I was in the Union when I first joined the Border Patrol. When I found out where a lot of the money was going I quit the Union and so did some of my friends.
Besides advocating for gun control many of these associations push for unlimited immigration to include amnesty and more refugees.

Outrageous. But put it on a very long list of tax dollar-funded entities that are working against the interests of the American nation (i.e. the people; the “posterity”), and have been for a long time.

PERF has always been a gun control outfit. When you study its history it has always been loaded with big city, political police chiefs.
