Hillary Clinton responds to Orlando terror attack: "We can't fall into the trap that is set up by the gun lobby"

I bet there are far fewer weapons for sale now than last night. Ammo must be on back order.

Liberal Logic: If a Christian says they are against gay marriage, the problem is bigoted hate-filled homophobia espoused by all Christians.

If a Muslim walks into a gay bar and shoots 100 of them, the problem is the NRA.

[ek_hornbeck]

In other words, according to Hillary, the NRA is to blame for the shooting, not jihadi Islam.

Hillary is very ill. Her falls, fresnel glasses, chain-coughing, suggest multiple strokes. Her mental state may have been compromises.

[xzins]

Hillary Clinton is evil and wants to be a despotic ruler. That is very clear from her Clinton Foundation Crime Syndicate.

It would be far easier if she could disarm the people.

When seconds counted the SWAT team was 3 hours away.

Arm yourself

Thanks Helicondelta.

I'm a Gay Activist, and After Orlando, I Have Switched My Vote to Trump

I'm also sad that the events of Orlando have shattered my political beliefs, as I can no longer swear allegiance to a peace-love-and-unicorns progressive philosophy that only helps to get my fellow queers killed. Yes, there is a war between religious fundamentalism and the spirit of love and tolerance. But we progressives here in America still labor under the delusion that the religion we need to combat is Christianity. But that's a strawman opponent, and has been so for decades. Since the 1990s, Christian extremists have essentially lost all their power, and are now toothless nonplayers in the "culture wars." Meanwhile, Muslim extremists, with guns, murder us, and on the left our only response is to bleat about "Islamophobia" and jump through hoops trying to explain away the self-evident religious motivation for the killings...

Almost unbelievable.

This was the best Huma could come up with? I think people need to understand the real president of the United States would be Hillary’s Saudi lover.

Then again not surprising, Hillary is such an evil liar she told the whole world a video killed our ambassador.

Hillary for Prison bump for later....

You should know that tweet was sent by an account with only 5 tweets AND the L is a capital I. Fairly sure this is fake.

"We Can't Fall Into The Trap That Is Set Up By The Gun Lobby"

What... The... F**k is she talking about?!

[Del Rapier]

This is what these people did to their homelands.I haven't seen anything like that in the US,outside of maybe Detroit or some other Dem controlled cities. It is not the NRA that is going to turn this place into a Ruin.

[txrefugee]

This old hag makes it sound as though the NRA was shooting homosexuals instead of a militant Muslim. Throw this crook in jail. She has no business running for president with her anti-American-freedom agenda.

[Sacajaweau]

It’s not about guns....it’s about muzzies....

[lafroste]

Is that bottom one a real tweet? Holy cow!

[pepsi_junkie]

If only the 9/11 hijackers didn't have guns.....oh, wait a minute, they didn't use guns. If only the Tsaranev brothers didn't bring guns to the Boston Marathon....oh, wait a minute, they didn't use guns either.

Well don't forget the one example of terrorism that wasnt a muslim, Oklahoma City. McVeigh and his assault rifle.... oh yeah, no guns there. Well what about Fort Hood, huh? Guns! So there. Oh wait, the government said that wasn't terrorism so it doesn't count.

So here's an interesting question. Of the major domestic terrorism act in the past 25 years in the USA, how many involved guns?

Here's my list:

• World Trade Center (First Attempt: Bomb, no guns
• Oklahoma City: Bomb, no guns
• World Trade Center (9/11): Airplanes, no guns
• Fort Hood: Guns but "workplace violence" so doesn't count
• San Bernardino: Guns
• Orlando: Guns

Obviously sarcastic about the OK City one. So based on the above, looks like guns were used in only half of the major domestic terrorism murders.

[mandaladon]

Not too concerned about security with her home-based server, though..........

[corlorde]

I think she probably lost Florida with this idiotic statement

I think Hillary should double down (if not triple down) on this statement. In fact, I think she should have a press conference today and state her position is that in response to this mass shooting by a Muslim murderer, she proposes to curtail 2nd amendment right s even further...

[corlorde]

The gunshop in my town is normally closed on Monday but he announced yesterday on Facebook that he would remain open due to overwhelming inquires and demands. My only gripe is, why are people waiting for tragedies to up there supplies. I'm fully stocked right now.

[PATRIOT1876]

Still waiting for Hilary to send her armed guards away because guns are “icky”
