17 gun control groups announce endorsement of Clinton for president

With Election Day on the horizon, a number of gun control groups made it clear this week their candidate of choice to fill the White House is former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Clinton, who has a broad package of gun control initiatives as a key part of her platform to curb what she terms as an epidemic of gun violence, already has the backing of the Brady Campaign, former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s Everytown for Gun Safety and former U.S. Rep. Gabby Giffords’ Americans for Responsible Solutions.

Joining that list Tuesday was a coalition of 16 small groups to include the Newtown Action Alliance, States United to Prevent Gun Violence Action Fund, CeaseFire Pennsylvania, New Yorkers Against Gun Violence, and Rabbis Against Gun Violence.

“The 2016 Election is one of the most consequential for the gun violence prevention movement,” Po Murray, head of the Newtown Action Alliance, said in a statement emailed to Guns.com. “For four long years since the Sandy Hook School shooting, Congress has failed to take any action to strengthen the nation’s lax gun laws. Since that tragic day, Congressional inaction has contributed to 400,000 Americans being killed or injured by guns and increasing incidents of mass shootings that have devastated more and more communities across the nation.”

Is anyone checking behind backs to see if fingers are crossed? Oldest trick in the book.

Why burn a bridge when no record of your vote will ever see the light of day.

I have seen Hillary supporters on gun collector sites claiming Hillary won’t enact gun controls. I call them liars and they call me names.

And they probably thought the 17 designation was for how many bullets it fired per second from it's "clip."

Re Rabbis Against Gun Violence. I thought they all died in the Holocaust. Most be an imitation group of fools.

A Torah is a beautiful document but it won’t stop a rapist, a robber, or a shooter unless it is bulletproof, can be used as a club, and you have a big one with you when attacked.

Otherwise, I’d go with “Rabbis for Gun Ownership and Torah Studies”.

I couldn’t count on my old rabbi to be sensible on gun control or most other issues. He was a buddy of Rahm Emanuel. I almost became an atheist because of him. Nice guy but “STUCK ON STUPID LIKE A MOUSE ON A GLUE TRAP”.

According to the Congressional Research Service, there are roughly twice as many guns per capita in the United States as there were in 1968: more than 300 million guns in all. Gun sales have increased in recent years Thanks to Obama.Jan 5, 2016
