Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham defended the right to own assault weapons, declaring he had an AR-15 and he was prepared to use it to defend his home.

Graham, a conservative Republican who was a close ally of Donald Trump on Capitol Hill, said owned the deadly weapon to fight off any gangs that would come to his neighborhood in the event of a natural disaster in his home state.

'I own an AR-15. If there's a natural disaster in South Carolina where the cops can't protect my neighborhood, my house will be the last one that the gang will come to because I can defend myself. You don't have to have an AR-15, but if you have one lawfully, I think you should be allowed to keep it,' he told Chris Wallace on 'Fox News Sunday.'

"...where the cops can't protect my neighborhood..."


Please gives it a rest with the tough-talking act, Lindsey.
You are a goddamned sitting senior U.S. Senator now.
Nobody is raiding your neighborhood intending harm.
