Hillary Clinton: 'Of Course' Republicans and NRA Are Complicit in Gun Violence
Time ^ | Oct. 02, 2017

Posted on 10/02/2017 10:22:00 PM PDT by Hadean

Hillary Clinton on Monday criticized Republicans and the National Rifle Association for stopping gun control policies, speaking out after a gunman killed 59 people at a music festival in Las Vegas.

When asked in an interview with the Center for American Progress' Thinking CAP podcast whether Republicans and the NRA are complicit in an epidemic of gun violence, Clinton said "of course they are."

"This is nothing but pure, unadulterated greed motivated by people who want to sell as many guns as they can, to engage in a falsity of fear and rhetoric about why everybody has to have guns," she said, according to an excerpt. The full podcast episode will be released Thursday.

"You know, the evidence is just so clear that more guns do not keep you safer and more guns in the wrong hands lead to terrible incidents," she said.

Clinton criticized the Trump administration, for example, for repealing an Obama-era regulation that stopped certain people with a background of mental illness from obtaining firearms.

"We see the horrors of Las Vegas," she said. "It happens every day."

Of course Hillary would say that, since like her mentor Saul Alinsky she is complicit in provoking race riots.

Dems had it all back in 2009.

Why didn’t they ban machine guns then?

Progressive/Nominalist ethical theory is incoherent. “Remote material complicity” is the most that can be reasonably asserted, and remote material complicity is not culpable.

Then there's the Marxist lie that it's all about the money. Yeah, HRC does everything on the basis of power, so she figures everyone is like her.,

I hate it when a gun is just sitting there, and then it starts to get violent.

By that same standard Hillary and all her liberal socialists are personally guilty of 56+ million aborted babies.

Thank God she isn’t our president - could you imagine? Even with the Congress as it is now, she’d get enough Rinos to push through just about anything and she’d have her pick on the court to help them all ignore the Constitution.

Bye bye gun rights - and the killings will continue of course, and then no one can ever defend themselves properly when that happens.

"This is nothing but pure, unadulterated greed motivated by people who want to sell as many guns as they can, to engage in a falsity of fear and rhetoric about why everybody has to have guns,"

It is true that access to firearms will result in tragic deaths. However, one must consider whom is the major actor of death on this planet listed by numbers.

1. Mao of China. 60 to 90 million give or take a few million.
2. Lennin and Stalin of Russia. 20 to 30 million only.
3. Pol Pot of Cambodia was only two million but on a percentage basis was 25% of the people in Cambodia. He is the winner by percentage. Mao is the winner by totals and Stalin just a runner up.
4. Hitler was not even in the game. He only killed about 6 million directly but if you add in those that died due to his war he becomes up their close to Stalin and Mao. We are talking about 40 to 60 million people. Of the four above 3 were Marxist and one (Hitler) was a total socialist. NAZI means "National Socialist Party" The right to keep and bear arms does mean there will tragic things happen at times. Those that do not have this right may see the horrors of Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Mao, and Pol Pot repeated.

I will leave you with quote of the pacifist Mahatma Gandhi:

“Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the Act depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest.”

No, senile old woman, Republicans and the NRA are complicit in preventing people like you from making your Hitlerian wet dreams a reality.

The latest body count of the Clinton Killing Machine is 245.

That's way still higher than the Vegas mass killings, and who dares to give evidence or investigate Hillary?
