Politifact Virginia: Bill Clinton claims gun ownership down in America
WWBT ^ | March 11, 2016 | Diane Walker

The former president took on the NRA at a campaign rally for his wife. He said each year gun ownership has gone down slightly in America, but PolitiFact says that's only half true.

They looked at poll data, and gun ownership has fluctuated, up and down.

Pew Research says there's no definitive data on the subject,

Politifact (oxymoron) uses a poll to determine gun ownership? Why not look at gun sales. You know. Real data?

Yo Slick! Most Americans know what’s coming. They deny owning guns. It’s the smart, American thing to do. That’s “who we are”.

Thanks in large part to obama’s benighted policies and his shifty personality, gun ownership is at a higher point than at any time in the history of the Unied States.

Bill Clinto has been getting too many Monicas and his brains are scrambled.

“Now, I have to go back to work on my State of the Union speech. And I worked on it until pretty late last night. But I want to say one thing to the American people. I want you to listen to me. I’m going to say this again: I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky. I never told anybody to lie, not a single time; never. These allegations are false. And I need to go back to work for the American people. Thank you.”

Gun ownership is down. Don’t believe those record setting background checks that have been going on since 2009.

That may depend on whether you’re counting guns or gun owners. The number of guns in circulation has sky rocketed, but so has the number of gun owners applying for concealed carry permits. I guess the real question might be how many first time gun owners are there? Can that even be tracked? And why am I responding to a Clinton comment as though it was from a credible source?? LOL

Bimbo Bill should have paid more attention in Basic Math and Graphs 101 instead of hoodwinking virginal farm girls.

He would then be able to decipher simple graphs - like this one:

This is too funny. A propaganda outfit calling Bill Clinton a half-liar!

Maybe both need to look at gun sales and FBI background check requests lately.

I remember Bill Clinton as one of the best gun and NRA membership salesmen ever, until Obozo came along.

I don’t know, it could be true. For example, I have seen several here report that they have lost all of their guns in boating accidents. /s
