The Politico ^ | December 2, 2015 | Annie Karni

Eight years after shying away from the firearms issue, the Democratic front-runner takes a more forceful stance.

From the stage in Boston’s historic Faneuil Hall last Sunday, Hillary Clinton scanned the balcony, spotted a group of women wearing “Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America” T-shirts over their sweaters and waved her recognition.

Singling out the activists has become a regular occurrence on the campaign trail — a group of the Moms attend the majority of Clinton’s town halls and rallies, with a presence large enough to make it hard for the candidate to ignore. Clinton has met with them numerous times privately, where attendees said she has spoken emotionally about her concern for the future safety of her granddaughter, and taken their questions publicly at town halls....

Meanwhile, that pathetic witch Hitlery has had men with guns.....the Secret Service....protect her worthless butt for 23 years.

However, she doesn’t want you or me to be able to defend ourselves or our kinfolk; we don’t have the luxury of armed bodyguards, paid for by the taxpayers, protecting us.

Good. It’s an excellent campaign strategy, and one I firmly believe Mrs. Clinton should adopt.

Should be a winning issue with the BLM crowd.

When nobody can buy a gun anymore, whitey will have to take his whoopass.

The nut wants to disarm us while releasing anti-Christ animals among us to prey on innocents. How very “leftist” of her.

Not a surprise. Billy’s bimbo is a long time Nazi. Remember when she was Slick Willie’s first bimbo? She said that she and Willie were going to have to take away our rights and freedom for our own good. Only a drooling, blithering idiot would vote for this bimbo.

An open and notorious felon wants to make felons out of law-abiding free Americans?

You better bring plenty of gunthugs, you felonious bee-yatch.

Gun control/confiscation is an excellent issue for Hillary to make her election centerpiece. I’m sure there’s millions of voters who were on the fence about Hillary who will now change their minds about her because of this issue, all the while ignoring Hillary’s repeated lying about her traitorously criminal possession on her private server of hundreds of emails containing classified information.

Hillary,

You first. All those guns that protect you, your daughter, your grandchild...every day. Get rid of them. Every single one.

Hey, liberals have nothing against guns, they like them. Their problem is that you can have them too.

Yes, good.

The biggest reason that the Dems got creamed in 1994 was the gun issue. She just needs to ask Billy Jeff - if, that is, they still talk.
