We will never back down': NRA-TV host calls out 'violent left' angered by Dana Loesch ad

Left-wingers were outraged last week over an NRA ad featuring TheBlaze TV's Dana Loesch, who declared gun owners will fight their lies with "the clenched fist of truth." But rather than retreat, NRA-TV host Grant Stinchfield got right in the face of the "violent left" and said in no uncertain terms, "We will never back down."

Stinchfield chastised the left, saying, "You people openly call for the assassination of our president and then claim the NRA is inciting violence? You set fire to buildings and attack people in the streets and then go ballistic for being called out."

More from Stinchfield:

To those of you on the violent left who claim we believe there’s an "us" and "them" in this country? You’re absolutely right. There are those of us who believe in freedom; then there are those of you who actively burn down our country because you can’t get over the fact your so-called progressive didn’t win the election. Get over it and grow up.

He went on to reiterate Loesch's argument that footage in her ad showed acts of violence committed by the left — and that if anything about the clip is scary, it's the hard, cold fact that the very people who tout themselves as tolerant as if it's in their DNA have been consistently guilty of blatant intolerance.

"So to every member of the lying media and the violent left demanding an apology, let me be very clear: It'll never happen," Stinchfield concluded. "We don't apologize for warning America about chaos creators who want to impose their will upon us through their violence and lies. And we stand firm with the clenched fist of truth while they wilt with an open mouth of lies."
