He also said that gun owners should rally against her, like we did in 1994 to stop her husband. Of course, the drama queens on the Left took that as a threat and misinterpreted the statement to mean that gun owners should shoot the candidate. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2016\/08\/10\/politics\/trump-second-amendment\/\">CNN reports<\/a> that the Secret Service contacted the Trump campaign in regards to that comment.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>A US Secret Service official confirms to CNN that the USSS has spoken to the Trump campaign regarding his Second Amendment comments.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There has been more than one conversation&#8221; on the topic, the official told CNN.
