Former Secretary of State and 2016 Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton called on Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and his Republican caucus to help Democrats pass gun legislation the Democratic-controlled House approved in February.
"With two mass shootings in America in less than 24 hours, thoughts and prayers are not enough. We need action," Clinton tweeted Sunday after a deadly shooting in Dayton, Ohio, killed at least nine people.
**SNIP**
The bill would require universal background checks for all gun sales and transfers. It passed about six months ago with overwhelming Democratic support, and some support from House Republicans.

Nothing in the House passed bill would have prevented the El Paso or Dayton shootings.

Again, Democrats want USELESS laws passed that would NOT have prevented anything.
Democrats do what they do best - not a damn thing

Universal galactic background checks would not have prevented any of these shootings.
“Universal background checks” is code for outlawing private sales.
It is a backdoor way to establishing a registry.
Registration is necessary for confiscation.

She has more killings under her belt than the El Paso and Dayton killers combined.

We need to pass the hearing protection act and other repeals of existing laws that infringe on our individual, God-given natural right to keep and bear arms. Other than that, we don’t need more gun laws - and certainly not more background checks.

I know the answer. All we have to do is destroy ever gun in the world—including the governments’ guns, too!
Then the world be totally peaceful, like back in the Roman Empire when they didn’t have guns. Totally peaceful.
