Wikileaks Release: Hillary Clinton Press Sec Says Gun Control to Be Implemented by Executive
Breitbart ^ | 10/7/16 | AWR Hawkins

Posted on 10/07/2016 7:48:58 PM PDT by pissant

The batch of emails released by Wikileaks on October 7 includes one in which Hillary Clinton press secretary Brian Fallon explained that Clinton “would support…closing the gun show loophole by executive order.” Fallon also highlighted Clinton’s support of universal background checks–which have already failed in California, Colorado, Washington state, and Paris–and her support for a scenario wherein victims of crime would be able to sue gun manufacturers.

In the email, dated October 4, 2015, Fallon mentions that Today had made clear they were going to ask Clinton about guns. At that time she was still locked in a tougher stance than expected primary opponent Bernie Sanders. Fallon wrote:

Circling back around on guns as a follow up to the Friday morning discussion: the Today show has indicated they definitely plan to ask bout guns, and so to have the discussion be more of a news event than her previous times discussing guns, we are going to background reporters tonight on a few of the specific proposals she would support as President – universal background checks of course, but also closing the gun show loophole by executive order and imposing manufacturer liability.

Trump should issue the following statement, “Background checks are a smart qualifier. How can we be sure that those who are charged with writing and administrating our laws are responsible without full and accurate and published background checks? How can we be assured that those who are responsible for overseeing and reporting on our elected officials are capable and true without full and accurate and published background checks? When I become president, every elected official and every employee of every agency, and every reporter in every newsroom, will be subjected to complete background checks. All results will be published - completely. Anything less would be unfair and irresponsible.”

No, I’ve been called “un-Christian” and every other name in the book by these male FR Church Ladies who evidently led pure-as-the-driven-snow lives and stand in judgement of others. It is THESE people that Christ warned us about and I cannot abide them.

I saw one man saying he didn’t want to vote for Trump now.

So I told him that he’d rather have a commie, pervert, criminal, who ordered hits, destroyed Libya and got 4 Americans and countless others killed, covered for rapist, etcetecetc.

Insanity. If people want a celibate priest for president, they should find one next election and get him to run.

“All the Trump press is about keeping this off the front page.”

If it was not the Trump thing it would be hurricane Matthew keeping it off the front page. The media is going all out to protect Hillary. GO TRUMP GO

And all these virtuous voters would happily support JFK again, or WJC.

"imposing manufacturer liability"

i.e. - bankrupting the manufacturers.

They'll keep a couple around to manufacture machine guns for the military & police to keep the unarmed peasants in line...

The way Dems are scrounging for support from illegals and the dead, I suspect that they fear normal American citizens may still vote for Trump - so they’ve already put Plan B into action.

It has become impossible to hide the cultural and economic disaster of Obama from Americans (at least those that pay taxes).

Don’t under-estimate us church ladies.
Nobody is without sin. Donald Trump is the real deal. And too bad Jeb Bush’s cousin kept that recording from 11 years ago (petty).
Also us church ladies have seen Melania and are pretty sure that Donald Trump’s alley cat days are behind him.

It’s a form of insanity. I think some people just like to feel nastily superior or something.

Stupid reaction. Women are not saints either .. they see a guy who has a lot of money and power .. that makes him VERY attractive.

I’m pretty sure there would be some big Fourth and Fifth Amendment issues there. But it does make a good threat.

I know it’s unworkable, but it’s just a valid swipe. Who doesn’t think there are many bad actors in important government jobs? Since the media is so gung-ho about impeding the constitutional rights of all Americans, I figure it’s fair turnabout to impair the constitutional rights of so-called journalists.
