Gary Johnson: Pro 2^nd Amendment

Amongst the Presidential candidates, Gary Johnson is heavily pro 2^nd Amendment. Johnson states, “Americans would be much safer if guns were easily accessible, not restricted.” The majority of the mass shootings that have happened in the US, have been in gun-free zones. Johnson believes that if “law-abiding citizens” were able to carry weapons, that they could have helped the situation. Another stance that Johnson has with the 2^nd amendment, is that there should not be a list banning people from buying guns, without real evidence. Johnson made this stance in response to an opposition party leader’s tweet stating, “the US should ban all gun sales to people on the terrorist list.” Johnson believes that some people on that list are on there erroneously. Although Gary Johnson is pro 2^nd Amendment, he wants the people know that he has an open mind when it comes to gun laws. Johnson believes that the US would be safer if we had guns readily available. But, Johnson also believes we should have some restrictions when it comes to the mentally ill. Johnson is for the people, and wants to make sure they are safe. Our Co. does not formally endorse any candidate but Mr. Johnson is certainly one to keep an eye on as he he has gained the 15% support he needs to be on the national ballot.
