Clinton told an audience she supported gun rights, two days after a student opened fire on the campus of Northern Illinois University, killing five before turning the gun on himself. Clinton said she believed in getting guns out of the hands of criminals and the mentally ill even as she favored protecting the rights of law abiding gun owners.
"I've gone hunting," she said. "I know you may not believe it, but it's true. My father taught us to shoot."
Clinton told reporters later she had once shot a duck in Arkansas, along with "a lot of tin cans, targets and some skeet."
OK, so here are my questions: Would there still be a record warehoused away somewhere to see if she pulled a hunting license? And if she didn't, isn't a violation of state migratory waterfowl regulations also a federal violation?
And won't someone please email PETA and express outrage, outrage I say, over this shameless exploitation and encouragement of animal murder just so she can pander for the brutal blood sport vote?
"Clinton told an audience she supported gun rights..."
ReplyDeleteThat is a lie. Hillary Clinton is a habitual liar who has never supported gun rights. She has done an awful lot to oppose gun rights, but she has never supported gun rights. Ever.
"Clinton said she believed in getting guns out of the hands of criminals and the mentally ill even as she favored protecting the rights of law abiding gun owners."
ReplyDeleteNow cbar, that all depends on your definition of law abiding gun owners. She fully supports the rights of all levels of LEOs to own guns. I strongly suspect that those are the only people that she actually considers to be law abiding gun owners.
what hitlery may or may not have shot is not nearly as interesting as who she has been a party to having shot - Vince Foster, Ron Brown, and too many more to not be statistically meaningful.
ReplyDeleteNRA and Hitlery agree: Support gun-rights, but of course keep guns out of the "wrong hands".
ReplyDeleteThe pro-gunners are going to have to drop the "wrong hands" crap if they ever expect to defend their rights. Not that the NRA is pro-gun of course.
If a person is free in society, he should be assumed to have access to arms.
Drop the NICS, drop "prohibited persons" categories.
Just remember, even the bad guys must have their RKABA protected...
"A man who does not have the ability to choose to act wrongly or rightly is not free at all."
"He who would make his own liberty secure must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself." - Thomas Paine
Who knows if you will have to act out violently in defense of your beliefs at some point. And who's to say, in someone else's eyes, that you are deranged and murderous for doing so. And one day we will have to, and we will no doubt be vilified as much if not more so that the Chos, Kevins, and Klebolds of the world.
The 2ndAmd was meant for the "wrong hands".
C.H.
Considering that she probably considers anyone who doesn't agree with her as criminally insane, this is not very reassuring.
ReplyDeleteI agree with C.H. on the "wrong hands" rhetoric. This is just like the constant redefinition of "good" vs "bad" guns. They can constantly move the goalpost until they win the game.
