Hillary Clinton: Australia Gun Ban ‘Worth Looking At’ In U.S. 34666 30
Breitbart ^ | 16 Oct 2015 | AWR Hawkins

Posted on 05/04/2016 1:28:22 PM PDT by detective

During an October 16 town hall meeting at Keene State College, Democrat presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton said Australia’s confiscation of firearms via a national buyback provides “a good example” for how other countries responded to mass shootings and she said it is “worth looking at” when considering gun policy in the U.S.

Clinton made these statements in response to a questioner who asked if we could ban handgun ownership in the U.S.

From the article:

"Clinton suggested that by using a buyback to confiscate guns “the [Australian] government was able to curtail the supply and set a different standard for gun purchases in the future.” She went on to say “it would be worth considering doing it on the national level” here."

This is from October but it is a good example of Clinton's views on the 2nd Amendment.

Clinton said she will implement a policy of confiscation of guns from law abiding citizens.

“””” Clinton said Australia’s confiscation of firearms via a national buyback provides “a good example” for how other countries responded to mass shootings and she said it is “worth looking at” when considering gun policy in the U.S. “”

We already have a gun policy in the USA. I believe it says something like THE RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED.

I’ve got some sad news for the black community - taking guns away from law biding citizens will NOT stop one murder on the South Side of Chicago or even Baltimore or Detroit.

Hillary’s gonna ‘pay you back for the votes’ with something worthless. Totally worthless.

Hillary is only “worth looking at” while she rots off the end of a rope following her trial, conviction, and sentence for giving aid and comfort to the enemy.

Trump needs to put this in an ad and bludgeon her about the face and head with it.

If she really, really wants another Civil War, that’s probably the best way to start one.

I’m glad she’s on the record and not fudging.

Let’s make the election about 2A rights.

Almost like saying choose between Hitler, Stalin, Mao or Pol Pot.

She would be in conflict with our Bill of Rights, the 2nd Amendment.
What part of ‘shall not be infringed’ do these people not understand? Would it not take a Constitutional Convention to remove the 2nd Amendment?
