There are everyday heroes all around us who never get the opportunity to tell their stories: veterans, first responders, philanthropists, entrepreneurs, and other genuinely good people who make a difference in the world around them. It&#39;s time to change that situation. Welcome to <a href="https://thebourbonbadass.com/" rel="nofollow">Bourbon Bullets &amp; Badasses</a>, where the spirits flow, the ammo is dry and plentiful, and there&#39;s always a Badass with a story to tell! We are dedicated to our cause of shining a light on people who matter, speaking truth in a world consumed by lies and FEELINGS, standing up for our Constitutional Rights, and just generally enjoying our time together discussing guns and sipping on some quality adult beverages. So, pour yourself a drink, load your mags, sit back, relax, and enjoy the show!
