HARTFORD, Conn. Hillary Clintons support for stronger gun-control laws has become the central theme of her bid to win the Democratic primary in Connecticut, the state where a deadly shooting at an elementary school sparked a national dialogue about firearms.
In her first public campaign stop in the state this year, Mrs. Clinton spoke Thursday at a Hartford YMCA about gun policy. The event included two people who lost family members when a gunman fatally shot 20 children and six adult staff members at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown in 2012.

We'll see how Hillary's gun control agenda will play in the general election. It usually doesn't play too well for those proposing it in elections.

Here is a massing killing that the Clinton Crime Family will not talk about, but they sure blames guns as our problem: The Clinton Administration shares responsibility for the deaths of Americans at the Oklahoma bombing. On April 19, 1995, a bomb exploded outside the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building, destroying much of the nine-story structure, 168 lives that were lost. David Koresh was the bomber, The bombing was in retaliation for Clinton Administration killing men, women, and children at the Branch Davidians - Mount Carmel Center. The Clinton Administration gave the orders to burn the Mount Carmel Center down while the Branch Davidians were inside the building. many view David Koresh as a hero for bombing the Murrah Federal Building where the federal employees worked that started the fire at the Mount Carmel Center. David Koresh was sentenced to death for his crime.

background check will never work. as history has proven. Democrats are the biggest critic of gun control. the back ground check is to reject criminals and mental health people. Which the Goofy Governor of Minnesota; Mark Dayton, a friend of Hillary Pinocchio Clinton has serious mental health issues, he is very medicated, and he is a gun owner. Whenever Hussein Obama speaks on gun control issues, the Goofy government does not have a opinion, “whatever they decide.” as he has stated several times to the news media.

David Koresh was the leader of the Branch Davidians. He died at Waco. Tim McVeigh was executed for the bombing.

Normally, when Connecticut governor Dannel Malloy wants to pretend that he is ‘in control’, he dabs some kids’ blood on his face before he starts speaking.
It looks like Hillary has decided to follow suit.

I’ve been playing up gun control even more than Hillary. I fired 200 rounds of dry fire today and 200 live rounds. I’ve shot almost every day this year and plan to continue my gun control effort until the Second Amendment is secure - meaning for the rest of my life.

The bombing was in (misguided) retaliation for the Waco massacre.
So a high profile violent raid over an alleged $200 gun control tax resulted in over 200 dead.
Don’t overlook how nutcases from either extreme may decide to solve problems.

Yep, old Benghazi surrounded by 30 Secret Service Agents armed to the teeth with “twizzlers” and the Governor surrounded by State Police armed to the teeth with “candy kisses” to ward off evil people! /s/

I know all that. But HOW did David Koresh get killed in Clinton’s Massacre and then come back to bomb the Murrah building? Explain that.

Apologies. The “Koresh was the OKC bomber” idea was so deranged it didn’t register upon skimming the post.
McVeigh wasn’t Koresh. Period.

Al Gore’s campaign is the prototype campaign for gun control and the Presidency.

That’s what I asked the Moose to answer. And he didn’t.
