On the attack against our Second Amendment Rights.
His pals and the liberal media pretty revved up as well a recent editorial in the New York Times -- and -- quote.
Those who believe as we do that the Second Amendment does not provide each American.
With an absolute right to own guns must recognize that this position.
Can't alienate sympathetic blisters and is not likely to prevail.
Any signs -- talk about real bombardier.
Rather humble and -- times to acknowledge such.
The times is however just one of many publications trying to restrict our Second Amendment a new study by the media research senator finds eighteen of the top twenty -- newspapers in this country.
Published pro gun control editorials.
Over one month period from mid December of last year -- mid January of this year.
The true newspapers that didn't Wall Street Journal the Orange County Register.
Thank you thank you.
Over that same period there were a total of 92 editorials on guns.

Unfortunately all of those.
89 of them.

He has a 51%.
Approval rating.
Not only that.
Stunning 71% of those -- 71%.
71%.

At all.
Tragedies like the Newtown school shooting or just a little more complicated than that.
And the American people understand.
And hopefully you are.
Liberal mainstream media and our.
Democratically led.
White House and senate.
We'll take into account the intelligence of the American people at some point.
So maybe just maybe those newspapers the ones that want to survive we'll think about preserving constitutional values as their citizens and readers do as well.
And respect and common sense and hard working Americans who happen to be users of their five products.
You see some of us are still clinging to the idea.
Not bitterly all.
But clinging to our guns and bibles.
And oh yes.
The constitution.
