killing people.

Fair enough, but I will ask again: What is your reaction to the joke Trump made about "2nd Amendment types" taking out Hillary?

I'm not saying you don't let the guy know you disagree with him. What I AM saying is that an article headline that says "NC Sheriff Candidate: Kill Gun Owners Who Won’t Give Up Their Guns" or a thread title that says "NC Sheriff candidate proposes killing gun owners" is a blatantly manipulative misrepresentation of what the guy said and is no better than the fake crap we see from the left.

Like UpToPar says, argue what he was clearly advocating (re: inherited guns) instead of taking the bait on something that just makes you look foolish and takes the attention away his real point.

Are you talking about this?

Repeating his contention that Mrs. Clinton wanted to abolish the right to bear arms, Mr. Trump warned at a rally here that it would be “a horrible day” if Mrs. Clinton were elected and got to appoint a tiebreaking Supreme Court justice.

“If she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks,” Mr. Trump said, as the crowd began to boo. He quickly added: “Although the Second Amendment people — maybe there is, I don’t know.”

I'm trying hard to see any indication of killing anyone here. Is there some other statement you're talking about?
