Shortly after Donald Trump offhandedly remarked at a Tuesday campaign event that Second Amendment people might be able to stop Hillary Clinton from appointing Supreme Court judges, which was widely read as an allusion to violence against Clinton, Trump spokesman Katrina Pierson tried to spin the remarks.
Appearing on CNN, Pierson pointed to a clarification statement released by the campaign shortly after the remarks. But she emphasized the threat of Clinton appointing pro-gun control justices to the Supreme Court if shes elected.
Hillary Clinton is a gun grabber, and everyone knows that if shes in a position to appoint Supreme Court justices, she will do everything she can to remove the Second Amendment, Pierson said.
She also insisted that Trump was referring to unification and getting voters to turn out on Election Day in his remarks.

(21,767 posts)Is there a single law, bill, proposal in The House or The Senate to take your guns away. Can you name it? Who wrote it, who sponsored it, who voted for it?
The strongest legislation out there is to restrict future sales of certain makes of guns, as well as high capacity ammunition clips. None of these provide for or call for confiscating current weapons.
Do you actually believe there will be a nationwide door to door confiscation of firearms from legally competent law abiding citizens?
Do you really?
Regardless of who is President, who controls Congress, who controls the Supreme Court.
Do you really?

Question: What is wrong with someone who believes things that aren't supported by facts, by reality?
My answer: Their symptom is paranoia, and their mental illness is Schizophrenia.
Books are written about "The Sociopath Next Door." We are also surrounded by functional schizoids who live in fear of somebody or something, in this case they are afraid someone is going to take their guns.
We are in a bunch of trouble when we have a full-blown narcissist/sociopath running for President, and he is calling for his schizoid gun owning supporters to kill his opponent should she win the election (which of course she will.)
This is what happens when we don't promote and even deny mental health care for our citizens. Many of them are less fortunate than the rest of us, which in itself is an effing curse to the mind of anyone who has to travel that road of life. Poverty.
