Germany Strips Conservatives of Gun Rights – Beware, They Are Coming for Your Country Next

In a clear demonstration of authoritarian action targeting political affiliation, the German government has imposed another discriminatory measure against the Alternative for Germany (AfD), the country’s sole conservative party and the second-most popular party. The latest assault on democratic rights is a court ruling that bans AfD members from owning firearms.

This decision reflects the ongoing attempts by the left-wing government and their well-funded Antifa allies to stifle the AfD’s rise through any means necessary, including selectively applying laws to deny rights and using proxies for state-sponsored violence.

This targeting is not unique to Germany but is part of a global trend where conservative parties and leaders face systematic suppression and violent attacks by their left-wing opposition. These actions aim to render conservatives defenseless and criminalized, ultimately seeking to destroy all political opposition using tactics reminiscent of communist regimes.

This move comes after Nancy Faeser, Germany’s Interior Minister, recently boasted about the government’s plans to target and suppress conservative opposition. She emphasized efforts to monitor financial transactions and advocated for expanded government authority to combat what she described as “human-despising ideology.” Faeser baselessly misbranded the AfD as “right-wing extremists.” A label that clearly could have dangerous consequences for all who oppose the leftist regime in Germany today. Furthermore, Faeser’s proposed measures to dismantle and “smash” conservative networks, seize firearms, and restrict travel raise concerns about government overreach and the erosion of civil liberties, signaling a clear shift towards authoritarianism.

Rising Popularity and Relentless Opposition

Despite relentless opposition, the AfD emerged as the second-largest party in the recent EU elections, showcasing the growing support among the German populace for its pro-nation stance. This political ascent, however, has not been without significant challenges. The left-liberal establishment, unable to counter the AfD’s appeal through democratic debate, has again resorted to using courts to undermine the party’s progress.

Selective Removal of Rights: A Tool of Suppression

The recent court ruling in Düsseldorf is a prime example of this tactic. The court, swayed by baseless accusations from the AfD’s political opponents, has declared that party members cannot possess firearms. This decision follows the German administration’s move to revoke all gun licenses held by AfD members, forcing them to surrender their legally owned firearms. The ruling is based on the presumption of “unreliability under firearms law” for AfD members, a decision rooted in political bias rather than genuine security concerns (Brussels Signal, Planet Today).

The Human Cost of Government Activism

This draconian measure has had a devastating impact on individuals within the party. For instance, a married couple, Thomas and Katharina Müller, both AfD party members and avid gun collectors, are now forced to destroy their extensive collections—197 firearms owned by Thomas and 27 by Katharina—or hand them over to the police for destruction. This ruling not only infringes on their personal rights but also sets a dangerous precedent for targeting individuals based on political affiliation (Brussels Signal).

Baseless Accusations and Political Manipulation

The court’s justification hinges on unsubstantiated claims from Germany’s intelligence service, the BfV, which, under political pressure, has suggested that the AfD is working to undermine the country’s democratic constitution. These allegations have been categorically denied by leading AfD representatives, who view them as a blatant attempt to discredit the party and curtail its influence. The BfV’s classification of the AfD as a “suspected threat” to democracy is a highly politicized decision designed to stifle opposition (DW).

Violent Reprisals and State Complicity

The AfD has faced not only legal challenges but also physical violence from left-wing extremists. Antifa, often directly and indirectly funded by state resources, has targeted AfD members with violent attacks. High-profile AfD politicians like co-chairman Tino Chrupalla and Alice Weidel have been victims of assassination attempts and severe threats, forcing them to live under constant police protection. Such acts of violence, often met with insufficient government response, reveal a troubling double standard in the protection of political rights.

Alice Weidel has been under police protection following the credible assassination threats since late September 2023, leading to the cancellation of her campaign plans ahead of state elections in Bavaria and Hesse, which were scheduled for October 8, 2023. Similarly, Stefan Jurca, an AfD candidate, was attacked in Augsburg, and Beatrix von Storch, the AfD Vice-Speaker in the Bundestag, was assaulted with human feces by a leftist terrorist.

Tino Chrupalla was hospitalized after a suspected syringe attack by left-wing extremists on October 4, 2023, during a campaign event in Ingolstadt, Bavaria. This incident highlights the physical dangers faced by AfD leaders.

Marius Beyer, the father of an AfD politician, was targeted in a devastating arson attack on his home in Bavaria, underscoring the extreme lengths to which these aggressors will go to intimidate and harm those associated with the party.

Additionally, Martin Hess of the AfD and Alice Weidel have condemned the German parliament for allowing violent migrants into the country, further exacerbating the threats faced by conservatives and other non-Muslims. An example of this threat is illustrated by the brutal attack on AfD politician Andreas Jurca, who foreigners severely beat in a politically motivated assault in Augsburg. This attack is just one example of the extreme risks faced by AfD members due to the influx of violent migrants, mainly Islamic.

The German government and left-wing parties have been proven to financially and politically support the left-wing terrorist group Antifa, which has been involved in thousands of criminal attacks against AfD members and institutions. These attacks range from arson and harassment to burglary and assassination attempts, reflecting a systematic effort to eliminate conservative opposition.

The targeting of conservative politicians is not unique to Germany. Similar left-wing political and violent attacks have been reported in other European countries and beyond. Conservative politicians and their families in Italy, Spain (here), France, the United States, Sweden, Portugal, Netherlands, Denmark, Canada, Brazil, Belgium, United Kingdom, etc., have faced violence and intimidation for challenging prevailing leftist political narratives and advocating for conservative or classical values. These incidents underscore the escalating dangers faced by politicians who dare to voice dissenting opinions.

The Fight for Justice Continues

The Düsseldorf court’s decision is not final. It can and will be appealed, given its significant implications for political freedom and individual rights in Germany. The AfD remains committed to challenging this ruling, standing firm against the orchestrated efforts to silence and marginalize its members.

Defending Democracy Against Left-Wing Tyranny

The persecution of the AfD by the German government and its left-wing allies highlights a disturbing trend of political suppression and the erosion of democratic principles. Despite facing constant attacks and legal hurdles, the AfD continues to gain support. This struggle is part of a broader pattern of political oppression seen globally, where conservative voices are systematically targeted and silenced.

The targeting of conservative politicians is not unique to Germany. Similar left-wing political and violent attacks have been reported in other European countries and beyond. Conservative politicians and their families all across the world continually face violence and intimidation for challenging prevailing left-wing government political narratives and advocating for conservative or classical values. These incidents highlight the escalating dangers faced by politicians who dare to voice dissenting opinions.

Left-wing governments aim to leave conservatives defenseless, much like tactics used in communist regimes to eliminate opposition completely. This aggressive campaign involves not just biased legal actions but also physical violence and intimidation. The international community must recognize and respond to these injustices, ensuring a fair and just political landscape. By opposing these unjust measures, the AfD is defending its rights and the principles of democracy that should protect all political entities in Germany. This ongoing battle against political lawfare and aggression is not just about one party; it is about safeguarding a constitutional republic from authoritarian rule.
