What other candidate is leading by example like Donald Trump? What other candidate is saying the obvious, that concealed carriers should carry more often, to add to the security of a nation under threat?

Ted Cruz has shown great support for the Second Amendment, but he has not extolled the virtue of armed citizens, as daily adding to the Nation's ability to defend itself.

Waiting 1, 2, 3 for the Trump haters to post their bs re Trump, which have nothing to do with reality and not protecting our 2nd amendment rights as Trump does.

“Donald Trump has shown that he trusts the American people. “Progressives” show that they fear and distrust the people, who they believe are too stupid to govern themselves.”

Bingo!

There’s nothing the left fears more than an armed populous.

Ted is great on the issues, but Trump takes it one logical step further. Just like with immigration too.

Ted Cruz

The Second Amendment to the Constitution isn’t for just protecting hunting rights, and it’s not only to safeguard your right to target practice. It is a Constitutional right to protect your children, your family, your home, our lives, and to serve as the ultimate check against governmental tyranny - for the protection of liberty.

Which candidates carry while campaigning? Does Trump?

All carry fans should clarify and qualify their enthusiasm.

Don’t carry after a beer. Most stupid, embarassing actions with guns occur in altered mental state, even when not officially drunk.

Sober people who carry rarely have problems. We need more of them.

Of course, this is not limited to guns. The #1 correlation with almost all tragedies is alcohol with other mind altering substances (prozac, cocaine, etc) close behind.
Hunting tragedies? snowmobile, RV, swimming, boating tragedies? Domestic violence, tragedies in the home?
Alcohol is the #1 correlation.

Trump is the strongest candidate for President the GOP has had since Reagan. I cannot wait to vote for him. Whatever he manages to do will be a step in the right direction. Frankly if Trump accomplishes 25% of what he wants to do I will be happy.

Candidate Trump supports 2A rights.

Non-candidate Trump, not so much.

“I support the ban on assault weapons and I support a slightly longer waiting period to purchase a gun.” Donald Trump 2000

Nope not a 2nd Amendment supporter.

RE “....Carrying a weapon is not always feasible or appropriate....”

Carrying a firearm is ALWAYS feasible and ALWAYS appropriate. Now, more than ever.

The one time you leave it home will be the time you need it.

Carry, everywhere, and always.
