This feature appears in the August �16 issue of NRA America�s 1st Freedom, one of the official journals of the National Rifle Association. �I think that for most of our history, there was a nuanced reading of the Second Amendment until the decision by the late Justice [Antonin] Scalia, and there was no argument until then that localities and states and the federal government had a right, as we do with every amendment, to impose reasonable regulations. So I believe we can have common-sense gun safety measures consistent with the Second Amendment.� |

Hillary Clinton would take away Americans' gun rights even though she has been defended by gun-wielding security for 30 years, a top National Rifle Association official said Tuesday night at the Republican National Convention. "For 30 years, she hasn't taken a walk, a nap, or a bathroom break without a good guy with a gun there to protect her," said Chris Cox, the chairman of the NRA's Political Victory Fund, speaking in a primetime slot on the RNC stage. |

Hillary Clinton will put enough liberals on the Supreme Court to dominate the legal system for forty years and dismantle the Second Amendment, the National Rifle Association warned here at the Republican Convention Tuesday night. Chris Cox, the NRA's top lobbyist, was one of the first of several convention speakers over two days to raise the direction of the Supreme Court in the presidential election and he warned that Clinton would give the liberals immediate control if elected because she would be able to replace the late Justice Antonin Scalia, gun control's biggest foe on the court.

Following the recent mass shooting in Orlando, and the shootings in Minnesota and Dallas, the sharp political divisions over gun control within the U.S. are once again on display. In June, House Democrats even staged a sit-in to advocate for stronger laws. There is some evidence that more restrictions can reduce gun violence, but another recent shooting highlighted some limitations of regulation. British Member of Parliament Jo Cox was murdered with a "makeshift gun" despite the United Kingdom's restrictive gun-control laws.
