The same day Donald Trump's campaign cancelled his appearance at the Heritage Action Presidential Forum, the candidate released a policy paper on his plan to expand gun rights Friday.
The paper, dubbed "Protecting Our Second Amendment Rights Will Make America Great Again," calls for an end to gun and magazine bans and nationwide concealed carry permits.
Trump's plan would also end the ban on carrying guns on military bases and recruiting centers, presumably a response to the July shootings at military sites in Chattanooga, Tenn. that left four Marines dead.

Yes, it is a right, not a privilege. So, why do I need a permit?
Fair enough. All Trump has to do is drop out and declare his support for Cruz, and you’ll forgive him.
For me, I’ll be happy to see President Cruz, after Trump’s term, independent and free of the GOPe machine that he and Trump dismantled almost as fast as they got the wall built.
Without Trump, there is no President Cruz.
You are either misreading or misunderstanding what I’m saying.
I never said it’s not ok for the Fed’s to tell states what to do with gun laws. I said the 2nd amendment makes it a federal issue. There is No contradiction.
It is a federal issue. It is a federal right.
An individual state may NOT disarm their population, which is the ridiculous assertion made above.
The 2nd applies universally. It is quite clearly a federal issue as it is an explicit right in the constitution.
A right given by GOd not the givernment.. which IS the point..
other-wise “WE” have no rights merely permissions..
like in Canada and the UK.. THEY have no actual RIGHTS..
That’s not a statement I disagreed with.
I disagree with your laughable statement that an individual state may legally disarm their populace.
They may not.
Period.
Yes, it is a right, not a privilege. So, why do I need a permit?
Because your State says you do...
Some State(citizens) give up all their God given rights to State and Federal givernment..
And thats LEGAL for them to do so..
Like they can tax you on stuff your own or don’t own..
paying THEM RENT for you to own it.. same deal..
Thats why fed schools STOPPED teaching Civics years ago..
Sooo the “people” would become dumb Serfs..
you know .............. as they are..

You’re a trusting soul ain’t yah..
I’m not.. been thru a horrendous 40/50 years of politics..
Thats why the givernment is so CORRUPT-—>> trusting souls..
Whom cannot believe some can be THAT EVIL..
BUT alas; they can.. Jeb Bush thinks Obama is a nice man with a good heart..
The Bush’s must be as retarded as the Kennedys.. were.. maybe still are.. Jethro Clampett was an actor.. Jeb is not.. it’s REAL..
You need a permit to carry concealed. In most states, you do not need a permit to carry openly. Carrying a concealed weapon has always been looked at differently.

hoser!!!!!!!

Been to Massachusetts lately.. Chicago... Detroit.. New York City..?.. Los Angeles?..
They disarm the “decent” people but can never disarm the ones that prey on the decent people.. the in-decent people..
Some places are not only stupid they are crazy as well..
There will always be ones that do not abide by the law..
Pass all the laws you want, they could care less..
AND LUV.. the people being disarmed..
By the way there are very very few living carjackers(whatever) where I live..
Even the grannys are armed to the teeth..
Never know when you’ll see a Bear.. ( or something )..
Armed robbery is rare.. here. it’s too dangerous..
And because of that you can't carry in any other state, you have no reciprocity at all.

Cool.. A State can and should make their own laws..
Like in Canada even the sight of a gun makes them want to offer you their wallet..
If the citizens are disarmed they deserve to get robbed..
Their Asking for it.. begging for it..
Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your ignorance regarding the 2nd Amendment is astounding!
Looks like a Uberti Winchester 1873.
“IF one State wants to UNARM their citizens let them..
They have a right to do it.. a POX on them..”
Your leftist, decades old brain alterations are showing big time in your comments. NO! They don’t have a right to do it and never have. No infringement means just that until a bunch of liberal lawyers start tampering with the Constitution and malleable minds like yours.
Read his policy paper.
I happen to be a Cruz supporter.
Your failure to acknowledge his support of the 2nd and his discription of it in the opening of the paper tells me several things. A) You think people cannot grow and change they are forever locked into one position; 2)Trump scares you more than he scares the GOPe; 3) No one will satisify you as a candidate
