"First off, I don't believe that you can put our Constitution in the attic and you can ignore the Second Amendment just because of a political whim or because someone at the White House for some reason wants to delete a section of our Constitution," Stitt said when asked about President Biden's call for increased gun control measures and recent comments that the Second Amendment was "not absolute."

"That's exactly why it's there. It's the supreme law of the land," he added. "We're going to protect our constitutional rights as Oklahomans, and as governor, I represent all 4 million Oklahomans, and we overwhelmingly support gun ownership and the Second Amendment."
