In a speech at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, former President Bill Clinton outlined the importance mobile technology but also talked about political issues like gun control calling the availability of high-capacity gun magazines "nuts."
FORMER PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON: I grew up in the hunting culture, but this is nuts. Why does anybody need a 30 round clip for a gun? Why does anybody need one of those things that carries 100 bullets? The guy in Colorado had one of those.

Of course a sex predator would want only bolt actions that are only operable by men and not women who need the semi auto feature.
All these idiots do not realize we went from the big ol M1 Garrand without grips and only 8 round clips to M16s in order to accomodate women in combat and other light weights outside the Marine corps... but nooo they supposedly are “big military” features, the handgrip, semi auto and generous magazines.
These features were added for the handicapped in combat who had a lot of gear or was smaller, so that no change were needed in changing mags, bothering with clips or shooting with big calliber.
They started attacking for “features within” the already legal weapon, not the type of weapon, such as the fully auto thing, so that they could have a reasonable excuse for search and seizure if they see anyone with a gun.
Cops will be ordered and they will follow the orders. They will search vehicles from here on out, and it will be a franchizing of the police terror state, and rapes by LE will be on the increase.
This is the man who created the no gun free fire zones which trapped those children. Did anyone ask him if he regrets causing the conditions for these mass murders?
Jim McDugall Ron Brown and Vince Foster were unavailable for comments.
Why the hell is he ranting about banning guns when speaking at a consumer electronics show?
I bet the Impeached sink stainer has armed protection.
Why does a President need to wag his finger and lie to the American public?
This is a fundamental right under our Constitution.
You have no authority or right to challenge what we need.
We have liberty and privacy interests (Remember Griswold v Connectucut-contraceptives and Roe v Wade-abortion?).
An unarmed country is a prime candidate for revolution, the likes of which Obama and his collective have been planning for years.
The Left knows, as long as the nation is armed, their revolution will be bloody and hard fought at best, and doomed at worst.
“Why does anybody need”
Because our government has those weapons and much more.
When the communist dicktator comes after us, we should be able to have a fighting chance to defend ourselves.
No, the answer is another question, directed at them..
Them: “Why do you need a 30 round magazine?”
You: “Why do you feel a need to control what I legally obtained and possess?”...
stand by for the brain overload
Opposition to gun control? Is that what Hillary muttered when she was facilitating (and then covering up) the ILLEGAL arming of islamo-facist factions in Libya who are fighting against Assad in Syria?
Hell - why does anybody need to get Lewinskied in the WH? Lack of “need” didn’y stop him...
Tyrant hunting season is almost upon us.
Hey Bill, how many rounds does your protective detail carry to protect your sorry arse?
The trick used in CA was requiring a “tool” to remove the Magazine.
Then somebody invented the “bullet button”, which in turn made the Overlords rethink their strategy.
Now, the intent of the “tool” requirement is thought to mean that you cannot have a removable Magazine, but are required to Top Load the Rifle while leaving the Magazine attached.
Then again, it just became Illegal to Open Carry a Loaded OR Unloaded Rifle here in CA. Liberals, like the Terminator, never stop until their mission is completed.
It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World.
It is a dismaying feeling to see “out of stock” on so many gun sites and that goes for guns and magazines and certain types of bullets. Hollow points are scarce as hen's teeth in almost every caliber.
If Hussein's executive order bans magazines that hold over 10 bullets, there won't be any more to buy, they will be gone. They are almost gone now due to people buying them up.
People are also buying them for resell. I went to a website where gun people can sell what they have, and a magazine I'm looking for was $100. It normally sells for $20+. That seller is nuts but this is what some people are doing.
[[Hey Bill, do you really NEED a Secret Service detail to protect you 24/7?]]
Seriously Bill- after all, one of your heavily armed guards with hteir high capacity revolvers and ‘assault weapons’ could go berzerk and just start firign on the crowds, and the crowds would be helpless to protect themselves, that’s a risk we just can’t take- So we’re gopign to have to ask that your guards turn over their weapons, ‘for the safety of the public’ because ‘somethign might happen’ at some point in time, and even if a guard doesn’t go berserk, some bad guy ‘might’ be able to wrselte the gun away from one of your guards, and use it to kill folks- so again, we’re goign to have to ask that your guards lay down their guns, in the interest of public safety- and we’re goign to have to aks your guards to then see a psychiatrist of our choosing to be evaluated as to whether they are mentally stable enough to ever own a gun again- just liek htey are proposing to do in NY- infact, we’re goign to NEED to have EVERY person applying for your security detail to undergo a psychiatric evaluation- to be doen by a psychiatris of our choosing, so that we the peopel can be absolutely certain we are goign to be safe from your guards in the future-
We hte people know you won’t object to any of this seeings how you and your ilk deem it fit to shove these same type mandates and decrees down our throats
Pretty ironic question coming from the impeached but not at all surprising. All though the weapons used by the Branch Dividian Christians (BDC) in Waco TX were equipped with large capacity clips, they did their best to defend theirs and their children's lives against the armed assault from the BATF, FBI and Gen Wesley Clark's Delta Force Army unit. Hey Willy, unfortunately the BDC still succumbed to your power as the president when you ordered the US military to use heavy armament weapons to kill them thus ending the stand off so your political ass would be spared. Hey mother effing willy, we, the good Patriotic Americans haven't and will never forget what you and your hag did in Waco TX and there are millions of us in the US to defend against murderous thug f#*ks like yourself and the obozo. We, good law abiding patriotic Americans need high capacity magazines so any little tin god tyrants under the charge of the US government don't kill or enslave the rest of us too. THAT IS THE SOLE PURPOSE OF THE SECOND AMENDMENT. Since you and the current thug jackass in the WH claim to be Constitutional experts, both of you should know better than to ask such stupid questions. It exposes how anti-American you truly are.
