Anti-gun official wins office again

From what I have been able to figure out from this election, there are more anti-Second Amendment registered voters in Yuma County than there are believers in the Bill of Rights. I know this from experience when asking Raul Grijalva to support various bills that have come up, both last year and this year.
 
They were pro-Second Amendment to help the honest law-abiding American citizens. Every time he was against them. My point of view on this is if my elected representative does not trust me to own a firearm then why should I trust him on anything else for me?
 
I hope that I will never have to make an emergency life or death call to the police department, needing help because someone is threatening bodily harm to me or my family and they are unable to assist for whatever reason. How will I protect myself?
 
I know those of you who voted for Grijalva won't be bothered by this. But to see him re-elected again was really depressing and saddening to me and I felt the need to share this with those few of you who didn't vote for him.
 
We got rid of one this time and maybe next time the "Bill of Rights" will win all the seats up for re-election. Let us hope!
