Hillary Rodham Clinton said Tuesday the nation’s gun culture has gotten “way out of balance” and the U.S. needs to rein in the notion that “anybody can have a gun, anywhere, anytime.”

The former Secretary of State and potential 2016 Democratic presidential candidate said the idea that anyone can have a gun is not in the “best interest of the vast majority of people.” But she said that approach does not conflict with the rights of people to own firearms. …

Wow. Is that the theme? She speaks to some mental health conventioneers, she talks about being out of balance, and she talks about her guilty pleasures. It’s a MADD MAD world. I guess they are getting ready to out some sexually frustrated or overindulgent Republicans.

I don’t think so, you pathetic woman. You live your life surrounded by guns and then try to take them from law abiding citizens. Push to far and there will be a payment made on that check you want to cash.

Nope, just those words on the net repeated should be enough to sink her ship. Of course, the SRM will run interference for her just as they did for 0 bummer.

They never are when it comes to this subject. And that’s not “gun culture” either way.

I've hunted. My father taught me how to shoot," she told a crowd at the Labor Temple in rural northern Wisconsin. "I remember standing in the cold water. It was so cold, you know, at first light.
