Democrat Beto O'Rourke pushed back on attacks from Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz that he supports revoking Americans' right to own guns, saying he "fully" supports the Second Amendment.
O'Rourke supports judges "that would undermine and effectively write the Second Amendment out of the Constitution," Cruz said during the first debate with O'Rourke, who is challenging Cruz for his Senate seat in Texas.
Cruz added that O'Rourke's position on the Second Amendment is "radical" and extreme," eliciting a "that's not true" from O'Rourke. |

He supports the second amendment until he doesn't.
Democrats like O'Rourke will claim to support the second amendment to get elected. They might even vote favorably on bills where their vote doesn't matter.
When their vote matters like the 1996 gun control act they will vote with the other democrats to restrict our rights.
Don't ever trust a democrat to protect our gun rights. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
