Hillary and her cronies say a lot of things and try to skewer Trump on this but Hillary has made gun confiscation statements since this campaign began.

excerpt:

But while the anti-gun movement has long been intellectually dishonest under the guise of promising to protect hunting rights as the government implements “common sense” and “modest” gun control laws, over the weekend Clinton openly embraced the idea of a national, mandated gun buyback program similar to the one implemented in Australia.

“Recently Australia managed to get away, or take away, tens of thousands, millions, of handguns. In one year they were all gone. Can we do that? If we can’t, why can’t we?” an attendee at a New Hampshire campaign event asked Clinton.

“I think it would be worth considering doing it on the national level, if that could be arranged,” the White House hopeful replied, embracing not only a mandated national buyback program but getting rid of handguns in the United States. This statement proves that NRA leadership isn’t wrong when it warns of Clinton’s anti-gun philosophical and policy positions.

Clinton has promised to use executive power if she wins in 2016 to implement new gun control measures that have repeatedly failed in Congress, even if her administration gets sued for doing so. Her position is not a representation of common sense or modest proposals, it’s confiscation in direct conflict of the Second Amendment and Supreme Court precedent.

No matter how much somebody hates Trump, they have to consider the future under Hillary, a Dem senate, and 3 or 4 new SCOTUS appointments.

The 2nd amendment would be reinterpreted within a year.

On this issue alone, if any low-IQ, zero-morality, so-called REPUBLICAN votes for Hillary... they PROVE they are LIFETIME LIARS.

Lifetime.

They have ALWAYS been lying to us.

Every day of their stinking POS lives.

Hear that, Ryan?

Hear that, Romney?

Hillary Clinton has said on record that she wants an Australia type gun ban, so for all the #NeverTrump people, will they be fine and dandy with Clinton coming and getting their guns..Trump is no saint, but you will have a 2nd Amendment with him, under Clinton/Warren/Sanders, say adios to your 2nd Amendment rights

Correct term is “repeal.”

In reality, she will likely not “abolish” or “repeal” but rather “ignore,” with liberal judges allowing it.

Hillary has dreams of confiscations bigger than Australia’s.
There is no doubt that she would if she could.

When Slick Willie was the prez, she did say that she and “Bill” were going to have to take some of our freedoms away. Anyone who would even think of voting for the creep has to hate the thought of a free America. Trading freedom for free stuff is so cowardly, disgusting and disgraceful. They need to stop calling themselves Americans because they are not Americans.

Clinton said at a recent event that "we can't ignore the Second Amendment" and has never proposed ending legal gun ownership entirely.

Oh sure, but she is a "cogenital liar". Every word she says, including "and" and "the".

So assume the opposite is the truth.

Not clicking the article, noticed the gerbalist author is quick to cover Hitlery’s fat azz, like a good Iraqi information minister.

We and Trump are at war with anyone who isn’t with us, including the uniparty MSM.

The First and Second. We can’t have descent now can we? Plus if it would ever be a Hillary/Bernie ticket that won, she’d suspend the Constitution with an EO and have a new one written to reflect the liberal views of the country.

Trump has drawn clearer lines between him and Clinton then Romney and McCain did against anyone.

Mandated national buyback program. Hmmmmm kinda like Obamacare - mandated health insurance. I can hear the pitch now “if you like your gun, you can keep your gun”

True enough, but really Hillary and all Democrats want to abolish all constitutional restraints on government. Not just that one.
