“You don’t make America great by tearing down everything that made America great.” That’s Hillary Clinton, commenting on Donald Trump’s presidential campaign. Ironically, she’s the same Hillary Clinton who would gladly do just that if given a chance. Her first order of business as president would be to do everything in her power to tear down the U.S. Constitution, starting with the Second Amendment. 

She’s so intent on destroying American freedom that gun control is seemingly her answer for everything. At the CNN Democratic Town Hall on Sunday, Clinton was asked about gang violence and what programs she would implement in poverty-stricken communities to decrease that type of violence. Her answer: gun control.

Rather than get to the root of our nation’s massive gang problem, Hillary’s solution is to take away a tool—apparently believing that eliminating guns will eliminate gangs. America, is this who you want for your next president?

Standing Guard | The NRA Gathers to Celebrate Our Freedom

The momentum we’re seeing across the country is both encouraging and energizing. January opened with tremendous activity at the NRA booth during SHOT Show, where members, industry partners and supporters stopped by to connect, share ideas and reaffirm their commitment to freedom and the Second Amendment.

Port Authority Doubles Down on Constitution-Free Zone with High-Profile Arrest

As anyone who has passed a basic civics class knows, the U.S. Constitution is the supreme law of the land. All legislation and official government actions are subject to its limits.
