“Hillary Clinton slammed the Supreme Court as ‘wrong on the Second Amendment’ according to audio of her remarks obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.” Speaking at a fundraiser was hosted at the Greenwich Village home of convicted felon John Zaccaro (intent to distribute cocaine), Ms. Clinton re-stated her support for a new “assault weapons” ban . . .

“I was proud when my husband took [the National Rifle Association] on, and we were able to ban assault weapons, but he had to put a sunset on so 10 years later. Of course [President George W.] Bush wouldn’t agree to reinstate them.

“We’ve got to go after this. And here again, the Supreme Court is wrong on the Second Amendment. And I am going to make that case every chance I get.”

Ms. Clinton also had a few choice words for the NRA.

“I’m going to speak out, I’m going to do everything I can to rally people against this pernicious, corrupting influence of the NRA and we’re going to do whatever we can . . .

[The NRA has] “so intimidated elected members of Congress and other legislative bodies that these people are passing the most absurd laws. The idea that you can have an open carry permit with an AK-47 over your shoulder walking up and down the aisles of a supermarket is just despicable.”

I wonder if she’s even more motivated by the idea that residents of Texas (and other states) can walk the aisles of their local supermarket with a slung AK-47 without any permit whatsoever. I reckon so. If Ms. Clinton walks away from her extra-legal email issues, I also surmise that she’ll do wonders for the NRA’s coffers and help get out of the vote – for the pro-gun Republican nominee.

  1. Worked so well the first time didn’t it?

    Every one of these gun control laws does one thing and one thing only, turn law abiding citizens into potential criminals.

    • The Rational Response Team says, “hysterical reactions to tragedies are always irrational.”

      If you agree, you’re a member already!

    • Hearing this made me renew my membership with the NRA and 2nd Amendment Foundation plus throw in a donation to both. Thanks, Hillary!

        • Sorry, NRA… I already joined the National Association for Gun Rights. One donation per year, that’s my rule. I’m on SSI, and that’s all I get these days.

          Anybody have a line on JPFO, since Aaron Zelman passed a few years ago? It was strong when he was alive, but I have a feeling that’s no longer true.

        • Oh c’mon Burke, no love for Gun Owners of America or local organizations like the Arizona Citizens Defense League?

          I’m a JPFO member. They’ve merged (or “been bought out”) by the Second Amendment Foundation, which is keeping JPFO running as a separate entity. They’re still distributing Zelman-era materials, but many of the hardliners (and JPFO is almost all hardliners) don’t trust Alan Gottleib and think he’s a turncoat for supporting background checks and collaborating to write the Manchin-Toomey bill. They don’t believe that under SAF leadership JPFO will continue in the tradition of Aaron Zelman. So a new group has been created by former active JPFO members, the Zelman Partisans (zelmanpartisans.com). I’m not about to immediately jump ship on my beloved JPFO, I’ll wait and see what happens, so I’m going to renew for another two years in December, but at that time I plan to also join the trustworthy folks at the Zelman Partisans. So for me, it’s:

          NRA, plus GOA to keep the NRA on the right path
          JPFO, plus the Zelman Partisans to keep them on the right path
          …and I should probably join Knife Rights as well. Unfortunately, I can barely afford all these dues. However, it’s my civic duty to join these organizations preserving at-risk civil and human rights in America.

          I wouldn’t be surprised if Gottleib runs the JPFO into the ground, and he’ll probably allow it to stagnate, so I might be buying that “Boot the BATFE” lapel pin I’d been planning on waiting another two years for to get for free with my membership. Get your JPFO merchandise and materials while you can. I’ve already got the whole set of Gran’pa Jack comics, I could probably use a “All in favor of gun control, raise your right hand.” poster… uh oh, not in the JPFO online store anymore.

    • The NRA loves when they get accused of being a powerful shadowy Legion of Doom, because the facts don’t really support that. Ask the people of CA, CT, WA, NY, and IL what the NRA has done for them lately. Record member ships and lots of cushy fundraisers, and they can’t spend a dime of that taking state legislatures to court. Its easy to have that NRA bumper sticker in a place like Arizona or Texas, not so easy in the places where we need them the most.

      • But we all got told here most emphatically recently that we should never, ever have an NRA bumper sticker!

  3. We can only hope so. But with a month of looming mainstream media calls for more gun regulation after another tragedy, its an uphill battle. The strong 2A position of all the GOP candidates is going to be tested and they are going to be grilled 7 ways to sunday.

    • Maintaining a strong stand on this issue shouldn’t be difficult. What will count is if the candidates have educated themselves.

    • Well, first Hillary Clinton’s campaign is a dead letter, so this particular pronouncement doesn’t scare me in the least. Secondly, let’s not make light of the fact that our rights are constantly under assault and each “event” that occurs is used by the leftist and the media to further their efforts at taking away ours. Just see how they use Oregon to wit.

      • +1 The main worry I have is Oregon passing something. However, nothing is happening right now on the federal level. Nonetheless we need to stay vigilant.

        • With oregon’s leftist nutter populating growing steadily, this will happen sooner than later. I will most likely not move there for retirement even though I was born and move it there.I refuse to give up my gun collection or register anything I own.

      • Hillary will easily win the primaries and easily win the general. I wish it were not the case but the numbers show it clearly. I am on the right, but know enough to know too many people on the left, and on the right, live in news media and social media bubbles. Sanders hasn’t a prayer. Trump will completely disrupt the GOP, and either win that primary and get slaughtered in the general, or so weaken whatever real candidate is chosen that they don’t have a prayer.

      • #HILLARYFORPRISON 2016

        Warren Buffett must not own any gun companies (unlike railroads) so she’s got the OK to go after evil black rifles.

    • I work at Rural King in the gun barn and yes, I’ve already sold one specifically because of the greatest gun salesman of the last 8 years, Mr. Barry Sotoero… lol

  6. If Sandy Hook didn’t do it, this won’t. Go ahead and scream your lungs out, harpy. Nothing is going to pass on the federal level.

  7. I bet if her Republican rival says the same thing about the Court’s gay marriage decision she will say it’s settled law.

  10. I don’t care what the Hildabeast says. What’s her beef with the assault weapons thing again? What gun was used in school shooting today?

  11. Not to worry, all those pro-gun Dems we keep hearing about will rein her in once they help her get elected, right?

  12. While I am sure she is all for gun control, I think that Mrs. Clinton is more just pandering right now. It’s like the Republicans all saying if you put them in charge, they’ll on their first day in office go after Planned Parenthood and issue an executive order to end Obamacare, etc…

  13. “Assault weapons” a knowledgeable gun rights candidate could have a field-day with that in a debate. “Hillary, I was wondering if you could tell me precisely just what an assault weapon is?” I’d have to write too long a post on all the ways one could tear that apart.

    • Seriously… its like a stamp of certification that says “I HAVE NO F****ING IDEA WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT”

    • @Kyle, I doubt that Hillary — who can’t even tell us what she accomplished as Secretary of State (except for Bengazi) and can’t tell us what she accomplished during eight years in the Senate (the answer is nothing) — has any idea what an “assault weapon” might be unless it’s that thing attached to her husband’s crotch.

  14. Same old crap . Same old talking points, same old people , same old retort , same old song , same old story , same old song and dance . This will only end on a bent knee .

  15. The idea that you can have an open carry permit with an AK-47 over your shoulder walking up and down the aisles of a supermarket is just despicable.

    Talk about despicable. Slick Willie didn’t keep his weapon concealed and he didn’t even have a permit.

  16. To be fair, the Supreme Court is often wrong, but you know what they say about a broken clock.

  17. Dear Hilary, The NRA is not some Corporate Figurehead like so many of your donors. It is made up of many citizen voters that think you are an idiot for not realizing this.

  18. They call for control of specific firearms yet these firearms are not at the root of the events they cite.

    This is a very good reason to make certain Clinton and any of her follows never see the light of public office.

  20. Maybe we’re approaching this whole thing from the wrong perspective. The 2nd Amendment, as ratified by the States says, “A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed”. I know, I know we’re all familiar with that but what if it were also construed to mean that the Government should provide arms to the militia? And who is the militia? We are the militia, my friends. Citizen soldiers. Imagine if the ATF, ante’d up and started distributing shootin’ irons to responsible citizens. Sweeeeeet!!

  21. About what I’d expect.

    Am eagerly awaiting more on her home office email server. Her tech took the 5th plus rumors that the FBI has retrieved deleted, and confidential, emails. Regardless, a clear violation of State’s rules.

    Both Clintons seemed jinxed by stunningly poor judgement.

  22. The second amendment says what it says.

    There is a well-established process for implementing amendments to the constitution. It has been used many times.

    You want to change the governing federal law … go for it. Otherwise it’s just noise.

  23. Until these traitorous thieves can repeal the second amendment, they should be barred from even proposing any sort of ban or control on firearms and disqualified from public office.

    That said, I’m going on a spending spree. You just don’t know when these traitors are going to effectively perform a regulatory abrogation of the RKBA.

  24. She’s got no problem with gunz when they protect her fat azz. Hillary for prison 2016!

  25. Hilary C. is just getting desperate. Sit back and enjoy the show because her chances of getting the Nomination are about to evaporate when Obama’s Third Term Proxy, Uncle Joe Biden, finally enters the competition. Obama wants to run the Democratic Party for the next two or three decades and the Clinton’s are just in his way. Look for Biden to get into the race and Obama’s Justice Department to suddenly decide to prosecute H.C. over her e-mail mess, or both her and Big Creep over “improprieties” in The Clinton Foundation. Obama is just waiting for the FBI to find enough evidence against her and then he’ll slap Uncle Joe on the butt and tell him to, “Go!”. I don’t usually do Political Predictions, but everyday some new tidbit comes out about what the FBI found on Hilary Clinton’s e-mail server today I am just supposing this is not without purpose. .

    • Lol I actually agree. Even former die hard Hillary fans are looking at her like she’s a walking federal indictment…which she is. All the Hillary fans that have at least two brain cells to rub together but are still way too liberally intoxicated are voting for Bernie Sanders (please don’t recite any more “feel the bern” posts or I’ll loose it) which is effectively throwing a vote in the trash and what’s left? Martin O’Malley? The guy known for *tries not to laugh* turning around Maryland and its beautiful jewl Baltimore City?! Its almost comical.

  26. Just reminded me to join the SAF and donate lots of money to them! Thanks Killary! Lol she just says the Supreme Court is wrong, nothing to back it up, just more “please give me your money” talk. If I recall she was fired by Indepedent Counsel during an investigation for being a liar and an unethical attorney….among other things…

  28. Convenient that I just picked up my brand new CZ Scorpion today….shame about that accident in the lake when I was fishing on the way home.

  29. When Hillary gives up here armed guards then she can talk. Until that time she should shut the ell up.
    Gun control = TREASON. The school shooting is tragic and about as far away from Texas with its lawful campus carry. Why didn’t this dirtbag go to Texas to show how tough he really is? THIS is why people should not be harassed about carrying guns.
    No double standards put DC politicians on Obamacare and SS.Thanks for your support and vote. Pass the word. mrpresident2016.com

  30. “Of course [President George W.] Bush wouldn’t agree to reinstate them.”

    Bush actually said he would sign a renewal of the AWB if Congress passed one. Which, fortunately, they did not.

    But don’t let facts get in your way, Hillary.

  31. Somehow, it’s always Bush’s fault. Even though Congress is the one who refused to renew it (not that I wanted them to).

  32. Can someone please tell this hag that she is done as far as the American public is concerned. But for what it’s worth thanks for reminding us of another reason why we were not going to vote for you!

  33. Thanks, Hilary, for reminding us about your 2A endgame…I hope Bernie kicks your ass, followed by the FBI.

  34. What these people dont realize is very few want to walk around safeway with an ak on their back. it is cumbersome and gets in the way. they do it to prove a point. If you didnt try to tell people they couldnt do it they likely wouldnt. Let us have our freedoms and they would likely see public display of firearms go way down.

  35. I’m pretty sure the NRA is made up of the people. It’s made up of a lot of people. All the other anti gun organizations can’t even drum up half of what the NRA has. Wouldn’t that seggest that the majority of people don’t want gun control? If Hillary wants to fight the people more power to her. She won’t win.
