Hillary "Believe[s] in the Second Amendment"!

You know, I believe in the Second Amendment. People have a right to bear arms.
Well then, you can count on my vote, senator.

What?

Those same words were good enough for gun owners to rally behind this guy, and he made no secret about supporting "the assault-weapons ban," too.

Y'all are familiar with Carroll Quigley, right?
"The chief problem of American political life for a long time has been how to make the two Congressional parties more national and more international. The argument that the two parties should represent opposed ideals and policies, one, perhaps of the Right, and the other of the Left, is a foolish idea acceptable only to doctrinaire and academic thinkers. Instead, the two parties should be almost identical so that the American people can 'throw the rascals out' at any election without leading to any profound or extensive shifts in policy. The policies that are vital and necessary for America are no longer subjects of significant disagreement, but are disputable only in terms of procedure, priority and method..." ["Tragedy and Hope," Page 1248-1249]
But there I go getting all black helicopter tinfoil hat conspiratorial again. Better to just dismiss all kooky and paranoid intimations that we're being played for suckers.

Things are much more comfortable that way, aren't they?

Well she does believe in the 2A. We have a right to bear arms. The kind they allow us to bear. You know, single shot pea shooters, nothing bigger than .20 cal.

She doesn't mean US people, she means HER people. As for her "believing" in the 2A, the Devil and his minions also believe there is a G*d, and tremble.

Thanks Sean.

You can hide a whole lot in the word "believe" and still not support and defend the Second Amendment as a guard of our individual liberty.

Yes, she knows it exists.
