Trump and Clinton clash on Second Amendment
Washington Post ^ | Oct. 19, 2016 | Robert Barnes

Posted on 10/19/2016 10:16:13 PM PDT by Innovative

One of the first clashes of the debate came over the Supreme Court’s decision in District of Columbia v. Heller, the case that said the Second Amendment protected an individual’s right to own a firearm for self-protection.

Donald Trump said Hillary Clinton was “extremely upset, extremely angry” about the decision, which struck down Washington’s restrictive gun law making it almost impossible for residents to possess handguns. The Supreme Court justices that Clinton would appoint would turn the Second Amendment into a “very, very small replica of what it is now.”

People who are against the 2nd Amendment, by and large, tend to be for murdering people before they are born. They only like to kill innocent people they deem inconvenient to them.

People who are for the 2nd Amendment, by and large, tend to be for being able to effectively stop murder of innocent people by violent people who actually have done or are trying to do evil things to others.

I know. But to claim her cause on the Second Amendment is about toddlers is beyond lunacy.

"Ah, Hillary is for the second amendment, except for those gun toting toddlers./s"

If we just abort the gun totting toddlers the rest of society will be safe! We better kill any unborn child on a whim just to be sure. Even if they are in the process of being born, just to be sure.

Hillry was so bizarre in her canned mini speeches.

Audio of Clinton: “The Supreme Court is WRONG on the Second Amendment! I am going to make that case every chance I get.”

Hillary wants to take your guns and threatens to use an executive order to do it.

She must be stopped.

Any gunowner who values his or her freedoms should get a "checkup from the neck up" if considering casting a vote for her.

If I'm undestanding Hillary correctly, the DC law banning operable firearms in the home was to protect toddlers?

I wasn't aware of any exception for childless couples to keep operable firearms in their homes. How did I miss this? I read the Heller decision from start to finish and somehow missed the childless couple exception completely.

Trump missed another softball. I can’t believe he wasn’t waiting for certain responses. Didn’t someone say Hillary would do away with the 2nd amendment by executive order?

When Hillary talked about all the work she’s done for children Trump should have said “Except those who are torn from the wound 30 seconds before they’re born.”

Another great opportunity he wasn’t waiting for.

Hillary is predictable. Trump should have known every damned word she was going to say. Infrastructure...no tax increases for people making less than $250,000....he should have said “Obama said the same thing in 2008. Did you get permission to use his lines or did you steal that, too.”

The Founders knew very well what they were doing in putting the Second Amenement right after the First Amendment.

Those pols who are against the Second tend, very much, to be against the First, as well.

She doesn’t need the fifth amendment all she has to do is say she can’t remember. Just like all those Mafia bosses from Chicago did.
