What sort of leader of the free world tries to erode law-abiding citizens’ right to defend themselves with guns, in the age of high violent crime and emboldened Muslim terrorists?
Sheriff David Clarke recently appeared on Fox News and called President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton “anti-gun bigots.” [Nice reframe.]
They’re “utterly intolerant to anybody else’s view other than their own when it comes to the Second Amendment — the shooting sports and self defense. But you watch. By next summer, she’ll be photographed walking around in a field like she’s hunting, participating in the shooting sports with a gun resting on her shoulder. Probably holding it upside down, because she doesn’t know what to do with it anyway.”
If you want to reduce violence, you target criminals, the sheriff added. You don’t make law-abiding citizens jump through hoops to exercise their Second Amendment right. If the president actually targeted the people causing the so-called gun problem, he’d have to deal with the young black men of the black underclass, who commit a disproportionate amount of violence.
“And he doesn’t want to do that.”
Sheriff Clarke wants as many law-abiding citizens to arm themselves “as we can get.” When seconds count, the police are minutes away.
Gotta like Sheriff Clarke, I could work for him.
