this statement actually alarmed me. i guess it gets to why i hate guns. a chunk of the popu k ation feels they get to shoot people if things arent going their way[/quote]This supposed quote of Trump saying that the second amendment people would take (kill) Hillary is a gross twist done by innuendo. The reality of the whole thing is that the ‘Second Amendment’ people, who are not necessarily all Republican – might vote solely on the risk to the Second Amendment and cause Hillary to loose the race. Remember context boys and girls. We are talking about an election and wedge issues that politicians etc like to throw about. Its all about votes.
NOTE: I don’t know yet if Trump actually said it was a ‘Joke’, if so – he shouldn’t have. He should have turned to the questioner and asked in his “You’re Fired” voice and say ‘and do you regularly take quotes out of context and then twist the meaning?’ – He definitely needs to learn to handle people misquoting in a more ‘creative’ manner.
Quote in question:
“Hillary wants to abolish, essentially abolish, the Second Amendment,” Trump said of his presidential rival. “By the way, and if she gets to pick,” he continued, “if she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks. Although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is, I don’t know.”

the “context” is that Trumps people have been predicting violence and a bloodbath should trump lose.
ugh. i cant believe we are parsing language of a presidential candidate to see whether there are other reasonable interpretations other thsn that he is advocating violent govt overthrow.
to me, i dont see it. maybe i have bad reading comp. at least we dont have to struggle with who was the Founding Father of ISIS. its obama! ez. obama founded isis. in context anyone whacked out enough to claim that could easily urge second am. people (as opposed to what, normal people? 5th am. people?) to do their 2nd am. thing and open a can of 2nd am. whoop ass on traitors and such
