Post-Ninth Circuit Ruling: Only Donald Trump Can Save Our Gun Rights

by AWR Hawkins The Ninth Circuit’s ruling that Americans have no right to carry a concealed handgun outside the home for self-defense made one thing clear: only Donald Trump can save our gun rights now. Hillary Clinton cannot save them. In fact, she has made clear her plans to abolish the Second Amendment. And Antonin Scalia can no longer protect them, although a truer bulwark for the Second Amendment never lived. But Donald Trump can do it, and in keeping his pledge to put “somebody just like Justice Scalia” on the court, he will protect our guns from leftists in elected… View Article
