DNC vice chair for civic engagement and voter protection Karen Carter Peterson unleashed the wrath of Twitter when she tweeted “Repeal the Second Amendment” on Tuesday.
The Louisiana state senator tweeted out Justice John Paul Stevens’ op-ed from last week in The New York Times calling for repealing the Second Amendment.

Her tweet got only 50 likes and just over 70 retweets, but it conjured up plenty of negative responses.
Well here it is. Finally.
The DNC’s Vice Chair for Civic Engagement is advocating repeal of the Second Amendment.
This is what @TheDemocrats want. Anything else they claim is a lie. https://t.co/64kXk0A4Nh

The Bill of Rights is to limit government, not the people. Those rights are given to us by God, not you. You took an oath to faithfully defend the Constitution of The United States. I did too. You are in violation of that oath and WILL be removed from office.

Please Democrats…Please run on repealing #2A. I dare you.

This is a DNC Vice Chair calling for the repeal of the 2nd Amendment.
It’s going to be very hard for @Democrats to argue that a sizable portion of their party does not want to repeal/ban/confiscate firearms in the midterms.
This is a liberal base issue https://t.co/yoCI2gEaVR
