Second Amendment: Clinton Says Trump Incited Violence

Hillary Clinton, the democratic presidential nominee, said that Donald Trump incited violence when he said that gun rights supporters could prevent her from winning the presidential race.

In a rally, Clinton said that words can have tremendous consequences not directly pertaining to Trump.

However, Trump, the Republican nominee, backlash after saying that Second Amendment people or gun owners can stop her from winning.

Trump was called out by the former secretary of state for his recent row with the family of a fallen American Muslim soldier which is referred as the Gold Star family.

"Yesterday we witnessed the latest in the long line of casual comments from Donald Trump that cross the line. His casual cruelty to a Gold Star family, his casual suggestion that more countries should have nuclear weapons. And now his casual inciting of violence," Clinton said.

"Mr. Trump did not have the temperament to be president", she added.

On the other hand, Trump was at a rally on Tuesday at North Carolina and he said that Clinton will put liberal justices at the Supreme Court if she wins the presidential race.

"Hillary wants to abolish, essentially abolish the Second Amendment. By the way, and if she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks. But the Second Amendment people, maybe there is, I don't know", Trump said.

Many netizens responded and condemned Trump for inciting violence in the presidency.

Trump dismissed the claims through a twitter post saying that he was trying to unify gun rights supporters to stop Clinton from winning.

"Media desperate to distract from Clinton's anti-2A stance. I said pro-2A citizens must organize and get out vote to save our Constitution!," Trump stated in his twitter post.
