Hillary will be in for a BIG SURPRISE when many Americans will not give up their guns.

That isn't really the point of the article. Her aim is to have the PLCAA act repealed removing the protection against frivolous lawsuits against manufacturers, distributors resellers and others.

Imagine what it would be like if a car maker, or dealer could be sued for the misuse or criminal use of their products every time someone was killed or injured where the manufacturer or dealer had nothing to do with it.

IOW, make it so costly to defend against lawsuits, it's not worth trying to do business.

Poster, if you're going to edit articles you post, please indicate so. By leaving out the section I'm posting below, anyone not reading the full article will miss the means in which she's going to effectively kill the 2nd amendment by stealth measures, without OUR having any say in it.

She has instead decided upon an equally effective, but far more devious approach that doesn’t require the overwhelming support of the states or the American people.

At the heart of Hillary Clinton’s attack on the human right of armed self-defense is her full-frontal assault on the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, a mouthful more easily remembered as the PLCAA.

Hillary Clinton and several allies have been consistently focusing on the PLCAA for months, claiming that it provides the firearms industry “immunity” from being held responsible for its actions.

There's more at the link and I would urge everyone to read the entire article. It just might help you when someone says "oh, she'll never be able to get away with taking our guns, so don't worry about it".

Yes. This is what was happening before Fast and Furious came to the surface; they were running guns to the cartel and Holder was practically *begging* Mexico to sue US gun manufacturers in US court.

Then the agent was killed with what turned out to be one of Holder’s guns, and the whole thing unraveled. Very temporarily, you know this will all come right back around. Mainly if the Democrats hold on to the White House. But in that case, no need for Mexico to do the dirty work, Clinton will do it right out in the open. Changing liability laws will accomplish the same thing. Judo.

It is marked “excerpt”. You don’t like it too bad.
