As a U.S. senator, Chris Murphy was sworn into office by pledging to protect and defend the Constitution… except for a certain part. Murphy obviously has a problem with “Second Amendment sanctuaries” (sanctuaries for illegal aliens are perfectly acceptable):
Opponents of new gun laws say we should just enforce the laws we have.
But many counties have declared themselves “2nd Amendment Sanctuaries”, where gun laws aren’t enforced.
On @CNN this morning I talked about the need for Congress to take action on this crisis.

One idea to prevent the spread of “2nd Amendment Sanctuary” counties is to require counties to certify that they enforce state and federal gun laws in order to be eligible for DOJ Bryne grants.
Shouldn’t be controversial. Just require counties to enforce existing law.

Giving up your constitutional rights shouldn’t be controversial, says a U.S. senator who swore an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution. Here’s the video:

Yeah, Murphy isn’t really thinking this one through…

Murphy should be careful what he asked for.

An absolutely reckless and insane statement!pic.twitter.com/e7fIGGe0Uo

And isn’t it interesting that Murphy’s making funding threats to “Second Amendment sanctuaries” when most of the mass shootings and daily killings take place in blue cities and other areas that have strict gun control laws as well as “gun free zone” areas?
Your first mistake is counting on government or police for protection

As usual, Murphy’s not making the point he thinks, and might even be helping to sell more guns in the process.
Every county and state in America is a Second Amendment sanctuary. That’s how the Bill of Rights works. https://t.co/IUnE9MttMt

Don’t confuse Murphy with pesky facts!
