tht is kinda hard to claim when they show up unannounced with a search warrant and find the guns in the home- which they will do

No one who remotely respects the Second Amendment is going to vote Democrat anyway. She is not losing anything.

You can look all you want.

You can’t do it.

A reminder from Australia.

From: Ed Chenel, A police officer in Australia

Hi Yanks, I thought you all would like to see the real figures from Down Under. It has now been 12 months since gun owners in Australia were forced by a new law to surrender 640,381 personal firearms to be destroyed by our own government, a program costing Australia taxpayers more than $500 million dollars.

The first year results are now in:

Australia-wide, homicides are up 6.2 percent,
Australia-wide, assaults are up 9.6 percent;
Australia-wide, armed robberies are up 44 percent (yes, 44 percent)!
In the state of Victoria .....alone, homicides with firearms are now up 300 percent.(Note that while the law-abiding citizens turned them in, the criminals did not and criminals still possess their guns!)

While figures over the previous 25 years showed a steady decrease in armed robbery with firearms, this has changed drastically upward in the past 12 months, since the criminals now are guaranteed that their prey is unarmed. There has also been a dramatic increase in break-ins and assaults of the elderly, while the resident is at home.

Australian politicians are at a loss to explain how public safety has decreased, after such monumental effort and expense was expended in 'successfully ridding Australian society of guns....'

You won't see this on the American evening news or hear your governor or members of the State Assembly disseminating this information.

The Australian experience speaks for itself. Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property and, yes, gun-control laws affect only the law-abiding citizens.

Take note Americans, before it's too late!

What guns? You mean that old thang there? They don’t even make ammo for it sir!

You can have my Marlin lever action rifle in .33 Winchester when you pry it from my cold dead hands after I break the stock and bend the barrel over your head!

It’s just totally astonishing how he’s not been Impeached already

Why it just wouldn't be "politically correct" to impeach our first "BLACK" Presidink. /s

A felony conviction and a long prison sentence “worth looking at” for Hillary.

Yes, the media probably would consider it racist. That’s how much of a grip they have on The Agenda.

I’ve been noticing just how much Obama rules by Decree, an effective Dictator, and how little is commented about this ominous situation.

He could probably just announce in January 2017 that he’s decided to stay in office and the reaction would be “oh okay then, if you want to”

Shocking.

I’ve got no idea what’s going on with the Republicans, it’s all rather bewildering to me.

Is she saying that knowing or not knowing the gun buyback was no voluntary?

Let’s hope she keeps, uh, shooting off her mouth.
Gun confiscation is the third rail—for all Americans of both parties.
She’s as stupid as a framing hammer. You go grrrl!

Sure, ten billion dollars per NRA member’s firearm. Each. The Fed can just print it. I’ll be a Trillionaire!

Unfortunately for Shrillary we have a Constitution with a 2nd Ammendment. So gun confiscation will not be on the menu. But she can dream. LOL!

“If Hillary goes to prison for 10 or more years, is Bill allowed to date?”

Why not he dates now. :-)

He could have been impeached for the Gerald Walpin firing. He should have been impeached for Fast & Furious, then a dozen other crimes after that.
