A major gun control group has endorsed Hillary Clinton, offering a lift to her campaign in a tighter-than-expected primary race in California and as she tries to pivot to a general election matchup with Donald Trump.
The group, Everytown for Gun Safety, announced its endorsement Friday, the day after its National Gun Violence Awareness Day campaign.

Well, that’s “unexpected” (as the Leftist media likes to say when the obvious happens).
NEVER, ever heard of them before.
“Key” to what?
If I had been home instead of in fascist Maryland on Friday i would have open carried to show my support. Did check out an indoor range here but not to shoot. Not impressed with selection, range conditions, or employees. Home next wed and some recoil therapy.
Interesting how the staunchest supporters of gun control tend to have serious ethical and legal issues of their own. Hillary, fmr NY Assy speaker Sheldon Silver, who’s about to do some time, fmr Cong Leeland Yee who’s doing time for gun running, among others. This is nothing new. The first gun control regs, the Sullivan Laws in NY. What the gun grabbers don’t tell you is WHO those laws were named for. Big Tim Sullivan, a Tammany hall operative even more corrupt than Hillary. He wanted to make the streets of NYC safer, for him and his cronies as well as the muggers and gangsters in his back pocket. About 25 years ago the “gun violence death clock” was put up near Times Square. It was funded by Robert Brennan, a junk bond dealing scam artist who makes Bernie Madoff look like Mother Theresa. He did time for securities fraud and other such niceties. I’m sure he had a pragmatic reason for performing this “public service”. Hey if I scammed all those old folks out of their life savings, I too would be scared sh!tless if they, their kids or grandkids had easy access to firearms. Just sayin
Hillary’s endorsement only reminds gun owners, hunters and sportsmen what’s really at stake in November.
Hillary will push for a radical anti-gun agenda.
That’s why the Bloomberg nutbags are happy with her and they know exactly what their endorsement is buying.
It was predictable.
“Let’s see, this is going to be a really hard decision — Trump is endorsed by the NRA, Hillary is endorsed by a gun control group and wants to abolish the 2nd amendment — for whom should we vote?”
I suspect it was more between Bernie and Hillary, and Bernie is definitely better on guns than Hillary, but not by much.
