Remember those “Second Amendment remedies?” They’re baaack!

Donald Trump‘s rally in Phoenix, Arizona was an aggressive affair that kicked off with the crowd chanting a correction at opening act Gov. Jan Brewer, who made the mistake of saying Trump would build a “fence.” As the crowd began to chant, an aide could be heard trying to correct Brewer onstage:

“Say ‘Wall!'”

After Brewer was done, other opening act Sheriff Joe Arpaio got the crowd whipped up even more by telling them about the protesters who disrupted traffic into the event. “Three of them are in jail!” Arpaio exclaimed, to roars of approval:

That was all just a warmup for Trump, though, who took the crowd through the usual paces of his yuge poll numbers, his adventures with Little Marco and Lyin’ Ted, his trade and immigration policies, and how badly we’re going to knock the hell out of ISIS.

Then, he wrapped things up with this chilling addition to the “We’re gonna win!” litany that he does at every rally:

We’re going to win with our Second Amendment! We’re gonna win big league with our Second Amendment!

Coupled with his recent “prediction” of riots at the Republican National convention in Cleveland, Trump’s mantra is especially disturbing. Ohio, it should be noted, is an “open carry” state, which could make an

explosive convention that much more interesting. Surely, the RNC will want to permit firearms at the convention, so there are as many good guys with guns there as possible.
