A GOP candidate is running a campaign to 'make rifles great again,' complete with a video of him toting a rifle to scare off people dressed in KKK outfits

A Republican congressional candidate in Arizona has posted a pro-gun video on his social media accounts.

On July 6th, he posted a video with the caption "Make rifles great again" along with a reference to the Second Amendment.

The video appears to show a group of armed individuals in Ku Klux Klan outfits, one toting a baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire, approaching a home where a man is waiting.

He says that the Democrats want to say that no one needs an assault rifle for self-defense.

The man emerged from the home with a rifle and approached the group.

"But when this rifle is the only thing standing between your family and a dozen angry Democrats in Klan hoods, you might just need that semi-automatic and all 30 rounds," he says in his narration.

The user who called the video acinematic depiction of congressional hopeful's life growing up was born in 1970 My father had rifles to protect me when the KKK came to town.

"Racist white liberals love to tell me that my experience wasn't real!" he said.

Two days after a mass shooting at a Fourth of July parade in Illinois, a video was posted by a congressional candidate.
