I am an American, I am free to speak my piece, and I don’t care what the rest of Maine thinks. But when President Barack Hussein Obama and Hillary Clinton say that someone carrying a handgun or an AR-15 assault rifle for protection in this country is unnecessary — that is crazy.

How many red flags do you need?

For two years, the FBI and CIA had Omar Mateen on a terrorist watch list. Mateen killed 49 people and injured 53. If the bouncer at the club in Orlando had a handgun, it might have saved a lot of lives.

Every time there is a shooting, Obama and Clinton blame the NRA. Guns don’t kill people; people kill people. But if that incompetent Hillary Clinton is elected president, may God help us. We will see a lot of red flags and more radical Islamist terrorists in this country. Clinton would just say that it makes no difference.
