Las Vegas newspaper runs ad promoting "Pre-Hillary" gun sale

“Don’t wait! Prices will skyrocket after Crooked Hillary gets in,” the ad warns, using Trump’s own nickname for Hillary Clinton.

Clinton taking away all guns and/or jacking up the prices of guns to prohibitively high rates is a common conservative meme, but as ThinkProgress points out, it contains little truth. Clinton’s gun policies do include expanded background checks and a ban on assault weapons, both of which are common sense.

This rhetoric is unsettling, however, especially when remembering Trump’s call for “Second Amendment people” to stop Clinton from taking power.
