Hillary Clinton: Gun Laws Are Too Lenient, Must Be 'Reined In'
Breitbart ^ | 6 May 2014 | AWR Hawkins

Posted on 05/07/2014 6:48:21 AM PDT by Cheerio

During a May 6th speech at a National Council for Behavioral Health conference, while making the case that gun laws are far too lenient and need to be "reined in," Hillary Clinton asserted, "We're way out of balance" on guns.

According to the National Journal, "Clinton said she supports Second Amendment rights, [but] she added that there needs to be a proper trade-off between safety and freedom."

Clinton stated that the idea "that almost anyone can have a gun anywhere at any time" has "become almost an article of faith." She went on to say that this does not serve to the betterment of most people.

Furthermore, Clinton reportedly criticized laws similar to Georgia's new Safe Carry Protection Act, which expands concealed carry into churches, certain government buildings, schools, and unsecured portions of airports. She believes expanding the places where law-abiding citizens can carry guns will only lead to "more deadly violence that could otherwise be avoided."

The lowlife Clintons have always been famous for telling Americans that they have “too much freedom.”

So let me get this straight : Law abiding citizens in legal possession of firearms "can only lead to more gun violence which could otherwise be avoided"

since when do law abiding citizens shoot up theatres and schools?

Of course, you fascistic WITCH.

Meanwhile, the industrial strength militarization of every government agency from local constables to state police to Fedzilla alphabet agencies and their mercenaries continues apace.

I don’t think even the average liberal is buying this rotted soviet borscht in the current environment.

This is a good thing. Our country is witnessing the effects of what happens when we can’t protect ourselves. Our country is becoming more pro-gun. She can keep it up. It will only turn more moderates against her.

When she puts a zipper-lock on Bill’s pants, I might listen to what she has to say about law and order though I will still most likely disagree.

She is still the elitist bitch she has been her entire life.

"She can keep it up. It will only turn more moderates against her."

I agree. She seems to be trying to use the 2008 Obama position that "I support the second amendment but we need reasonable restrictions for public safety." We found out what a lie (among many others) that turned out to be after he got elected. That dodge won't work again so soon after people were previously hoodwinked with it. Besides, Obama seem likable and people wanted to believe him. I don't see that as the case with Hillary - she will receive much more skeptical scrutiny.

This coming from someone who helped arm every terror organization in the world. Helped completely destable entire regions and turn them into hot beds for terror including this country.
