Hillary Clinton touts plan to ‘take on NRA’

Hillary Clinton’s campaign touted the presidential candidate’s intention to ‘take on the NRA’ Saturday.

Clinton’s campaign sent out an email promoting Clinton’s record on gun control and assuring Americans that if she is elected, the NRA should be very afraid.

“Hillary has been fighting hard to prevent gun violence for decades, from her vocal support of the Brady Bill in 1993 to her calls on the campaign trail to take on the NRA and pass commonsense solutions to keep guns out of the hands of dangerous criminals,” the email reads. “She is the champion we need on this issue — but she needs all of us to stand behind her.”

The email blasts congressional Republicans for refusing to implement more gun control measures Thursday, including expanded background checks.

The gun control issue has risen to the surface of the presidential race after a series of mass shootings, most recently the Wednesday shooting in San Bernardino, California that killed and wounded dozens. Democratic presidential candidates Clinton, Bernie Sanders and Martin O’Malley all tweeted some sort of call for increased gun control immediately following the shooting, while Republican candidates mostly tweeted prayers and words of support for the victims and their families.

The email begs America to think of the children.

“We need to take action now,” Clinton is quoted in the email. “No parent should have to worry about sending their kids to school, or going to a movie theater, or even going to church. No one should have that basic sense of safety and security ripped away from them.”

In her hopes to disarm as many of us as possible, Hillary’s all-in to help ISIS and every other invader bent on death and destruction in America.

The email begs America to think of the children.

Once again the classic, "It's for the children" emotional pandering. And once again, liberals are incapable of rational thought, they can only process events and issues via their emotional glands. Not a very bright bunch.

Personify, demonize. The Politics of Personal Destruction was hot stuff in the 80’s but it’s a little antiquated in the Days of Twitter. Yep, the whole thing is the NRA’s fault, including that weapons smuggling in the Middle East during somebody’s tenure as Secretary of State. Now who was that? Let me see, the name is coming to me...

A president who would ship guns to Mexican criminals to shame the 2nd amendment would ship muslims into the USA to do the same.

Oh baby, come on and go for it. Confiscation all the way! Don’t let O’Malley and Bernie out flank you on the left. Don’t let democrats in purple states talk you out of it either.

Bring it, Hillary.

Hillary loves a blood battle, she always has, and she wants one. With Trump, she is going to get one, finally....this time on our terms. This will be a new experience for Hillary— our terms.

Has she even commented on this ISIS attack at all or is she just spouting off about the NRA?

If Hillary does for the NRA Membership numbers what Obama has done for gun sales, it will be worth it.

I believe if I became President, I would enlist the assistance of the NRA to organize “well-regulated militias” to protect against Jihadi’s in the US.
