Clinton suggests she'd consider mandatory gun buy-backs, sparking fears of ‘confiscation’
Fox News ^ | October 17, 2015

Hillary Clinton said Friday that mandatory gun buy-back programs like ones in Australia are “worth looking into,” sparking criticism that the Democratic presidential front-runner would, if elected, impose gun-confiscation efforts.

Clinton made the comments during a campaign stop in Keene, N.H., when an attendee asked about Australia’s 1996 and 2003 buy-back programs that collected roughly 700,000 banned semi-automatic rifles and other firearms.

Why would she disarm her supporters?

“If your talking “all” government workers that would be a great plan to improve the gene pool. he average federal worker is nothing like you imagine.”

Indeed. Take a walk thru any federal bureaucracy and note all the squishy jellyfish slouched over their desks, munching one-pound bags of potato chips and guzzling two-liter bottles of pop. These affirmative action trolls have no interest whatsoever in dying on a hilltop for the glory of Obuma.

That graphic always cracks me up. Tough talk about bold resistance to tyranny coupled with an AR missing it’s flash suppressor so as to not fail to comply with the ‘94 AWB.

This is confiscation, pure and simple.

It would never fly in the United States of America.

BTW, what really happened to Vince Foster?

Pretty stupid approach. My ammo is much bigger than what they are given. And my neighbors are similar. ComDem bureaucraps can simply forget that confiscation crap. End of story.

“This is the USA! You can’t confiscate what is not registered.”

...or what is hidden inside the 400 hollow trees on your 40 acres.

The comments are great. I particularly liked this one:

“Participating in a gun buy-back program

because you think that criminals have too many guns

is like having yourself castrated

because you think your neighbors have too many kids. “

I will say this much regarding Hillary If the people elect her, they deserve everything she does to them. I said the same thing regarding Obama.

democrats now opening support banning guns and 2nd amendment. In the past whenever we accuse them of this they could deny it and accuse us of being liars

My opinion? The Obama Administration has been and is continuing to collect gun buyer’s data from NICS and is creating a de-facto registration system. You heard it hear first.

“This is the USA! You can’t confiscate what is not registered.”

You nailed it! BTW, the last two Presidential candidates who put national gun registration & licensing of owners in their platforms were Bill Bradley & Al Gore. Worked, didn’t it?

Now there are four states requiring firearms owner ID cards & one form or another of registration. They are virtual showcases of citizen noncompliance & civil disobedience.

The NOPD kicked in doors searching for weapons. Were that to happen on a national scale, then insurrection, chaos, & mayhem will follow, guaranteed.

Hillary thinks she need only snap her gnarled fingers & legions of armed Federal agents will surge forth to her battle cry of “Fly, my pretties, fly!!!”

It’s really very simple - ask them how many people they’d be willing to kill to realize that particular dream.

The follow-up: ask them if they’re willing to die to realize that particular slice of utopia.


Hillary has no limit on how many she’d order dead. And she has no plans of risking her own hog-skin behind her armies of body guards.
