Turning to the anti-gun progressives, Levin explained that the Left seeks the destruction of not only the Second Amendment, but the whole of the Constitution.

"Folks, we're dealing with anti-constitutional radical ideologues," Levin said. "They don't care about the history of the Second Amendment any more than they care about the history of the First Amendment."

"We cannot rely on the progressive Left and the media and Hollywood and tenured Marxist professors to protect our children," he said.
