Bill Clinton: “You’re way better off with a shotgun than an assault weapon. Trust me.”

Been getting our self-defense and firearm-selection advice from our esteemed vice president, have we? Or, would that be just our talking points? Via the Washington Examiner:

If you live in a city and you think you need protection of your home, you’re way better off with a shotgun than an assault weapon,” Clinton added. “Trust me. It’s not even close.

Groan. For the umpteenth time — yes, a shotgun is a very solid choice for in-home self-defense, but for goodness’ sake, stop trying to discount AR-15s and their ilk as an defense option because of your eagerness to discredit its possible uses and classify it as an “assualt” weapon. What a criminal can assault a law-abiding citizen with, a law-abiding citizen can just as easily deter and defend against criminals.

Straight from Slick Willie the draft dodger. Hey Willie! How much time do you have luggin’ an M-16? Sorry. I don’t “Trust You”. You don’t have a clue about firearms.

Well since he said “Trust me”, we can automatically know he is lying.

Like most rapists, Bill prefers unarmed victims.

We know he’s telling the truth because all the inner-city cops carry shotguns but none of them carry AR-15s.

Trust me? What the hell does he know? A real assault weapon, as defined by our military is a select fire firearm. That is, it is either a fully automatic machine gun, or can be selected to fire in single rounds (or 3 groups).

So, NO a shotgun is not better than a full auto machine gun, shot from a distance the shotgun cannot reach. Close in, maybe but only with surprise. A Thompson beats a trench broom anyday— cut somebody in half with it.

Thanks for your input on the 2nd Amendment William.

You may now STFU and concentrate on the meaning of “is”.

Asshat

I have 25 years in the firearms field. I have well over 30 years as a shooter. Sorry Bill, you don’t know what your talking about and you never will.

I’ll choose my own tools for home and personal defense. Keep your uneducated, leftist, BS opinion to your self. Trust me, they are not wanted nor needed. Idiot.

I really want to take advice from a guy that can’t shoot straight because his barrel’s bent.

Bill Clinton: “You’re way better off with a shotgun than an assault weapon. Trust me.”

What difference does it make?
