Gun control has proven a perennial loser for Democrats for over a generation now, yet Crooked Hillary Clinton has made it a centerpiece of her struggling campaign for president.
On Sunday morning, the far-left liberal Clinton (Crooked Hillary, not her husband) wouldn’t acknowledge an individual right to keep and bear arms, ignoring what’s written in the Constitution and what’s been decided by SCOTUS in recent years in Heller and McDonald.
That’s pretty bold and brazen, but what do you expect from people who parse the meaning of the word “is”.
(Washington Examiner) – Hillary Clinton declined to say during an interview Sunday whether she believes the right to bear arms is guaranteed by the Constitution.
“Do you believe that an individual’s right to bear arms is a constitutional right, that it’s not linked to service in a militia?” ABC’s George Stephanopoulos asked the Democratic presidential front-runner.
Instead of an individual right, Hillary comes up with the right of the federal government to impose reasonable regulations.
The “right” of the federal government.
“I think that for most of our history, there was a nuanced reading of the Second Amendment until the decision by the late Justice [Antonin] Scalia, and there was no argument until then that localities and states and the federal government had a right, as we do with every amendment, to impose reasonable regulations,” Clinton responded.
Last Friday, Everytown for Gun Control, one of Michael Bloomberg’s gun control groups, announced their endorsement of Hillary Clinton for President.
(Townhall.com) – Michael Bloomberg’s gun control lobby Mom’s Demand Action and Everytown has officially endorsed anti-gun extremist Hillary Clinton for president.
“Today, I’m proud to announce that Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America and Everytown for Gun Safety Action Fund are endorsing Hillary Clinton for president of the United States,” Mom’s Demand Founder Shannon Watts declared in an email Friday.
As we mentioned, gun control has been a proven loser time and time again for Democrats for well over twenty years. Everytown for Gun Control addresses that in their email.
…We want to make the 2016 election a historic victory for gun safety — and prove once and for all that it is a winning political issue.
While even a broken clock is right twice a day, gun control hasn’t been a winner for any national candidate for since 1992 at least – well over 8700 days.
Nevertheless, Hillary is “honored” to have their endorsement.
And I am honored to receive the endorsement of Everytown for Gun Safety, including Moms Demand Action
She looks like someone just brought a new upgraded broom for her to ride into the room.
Please quit showing her picture, we all know what that ugly bitch looks like. Have some consideration for those of us with weak stomachs. I’ll probably have nightmares now even though I washed my eyes it doesn’t help.
This probably deserves its own post:

“Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California Morrison C. England, Chief District Judge, Presiding
Argued and Submitted En Banc June 16, 2015 San Francisco, California
Filed June 9, 2016
….
The en banc court affirmed the district courts’ judgments and held that there is no Second Amendment right for members of the general public to carry concealed firearms in public.
….
The en banc court held that the history relevant to both the Second Amendment and its incorporation by the Fourteenth Amendment lead to the same conclusion: The right of a member of the general public to carry a concealed firearm in public is not, and never has been, protected by the Second Amendment. Therefore, because the Second Amendment does not protect in any degree the right to carry concealed firearms in public, any prohibition or restriction a state may choose to impose on concealed carry — including a requirement of “good cause,” however defined — is necessarily allowed by the Amendment. The en banc court stated that there may or may not be a Second Amendment right for a member of the general public to carry a firearm openly in public, but the Supreme Court has not answered that question.”
Now you people do realize this opens up things for a FEDERAL law or a POTUS EO to ban concealed carry nationwide? Think it can’t happen? Look at how the 1968 GCA changed things. All they have to do is claim jurisdiction via interstate commerce and you can’t even drive down a highway with any kind of firearm.
