Outspoken Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke had some harsh words for President Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and anti-gun Democrats recently. Appearing on Fox News’ Hannity, the Wisconsin lawmaker responded to Clinton’s calls for “a rival organization to the NRA” and said one already existed: The Democratic party.  

Clarke went on to call Obama and Clinton “anti-gun bigots” and said they were intolerant of anyone else’s view when it comes to the Second Amendment. To reduce violence, Clarke advised the president to target the criminal and not law-abiding citizens. 

Clarke concluded by saying he wants as many law-abiding citizens to arm themselves as possible so that he has the partners he needs to beat back violence. “The great equalizer is a law-abiding citizen.”
