Imagine the scene: a No Kings protester in Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania, clutching a sign boldly proclaiming 86 47 amid chants against tyranny and overreach. When pressed by a reporter over the weekend, she smirks and quips, It means ‘we’re out of mashed potatoes’—a culinary dodge that reeks of evasion. This isn’t just a funny viral clip; it’s a masterclass in leftist sleight-of-hand, where anti-2A agitators hide their authoritarian fantasies behind diner lingo. 86 is restaurant slang for get rid of or nix, and paired with 47, it’s a not-so-subtle nod to scrapping the 47th president—or worse, the AR-47 platform synonymous with our sacred Second Amendment rights. Her refusal to own it? Pure projection from a crowd that preaches no kings while plotting to crown the state as the ultimate ruler.

For the 2A community, this is red meat with a side of vindication. These No Kings rallies, ostensibly against perceived strongmen, are thinly veiled assaults on the individual right to bear arms—the ultimate check against any king, elected or otherwise. The mashed potatoes excuse is laughable, but the implications are deadly serious: it normalizes coded calls for confiscation, echoing the same playbook used by Everytown or Giffords’ acolytes who rebrand gun grabs as common-sense reform. We’ve seen this before—vague slogans morph into policy, like Biden’s assault weapon bans or Harris’s door-to-door fantasies. Patriots, take note: every evasive quip like this is a trial balloon for tyranny. It underscores why vigilance isn’t optional; it’s our duty.

The silver lining? Moments like this expose the opposition’s bankruptcy. While they hide behind spuds, we’re out here defending the Constitution with clarity and firepower. Share this clip far and wide—let it rally the ranks, remind fence-sitters of the stakes, and fuel the fight to protect our God-given rights. No kings, indeed—but no disarming the people either. Stay armed, stay alert, and keep the pressure on.
