In the past, Hillary Clinton has been relatively mild-mannered when it came to her stance on guns and gun control, but in a recent speech in Iowa City the presidential hopeful made it clear she plans to take a side on the controversial issue, reports The Washington Post.
“I’m going to speak out against the uncontrollable use of guns in our country because I believe we can do better,” Clinton said Tuesday in Iowa City.
And spoken out she has. Clinton not only clearly stated that she wants tougher gun laws, but also declared war against the National Rifle Association itself.
NRA executive vice president Wayne LaPierre said Clinton’s bold move may very well be her undoing, and advised she take a look at the history books.
“We’ve been down this road before with the Clintons,” said LaPierre. “She needs to read her husband’s book.”
Former President Bill Clinton wrote in his book “My Life” that he believed then Vice President Al Gore lost the 2000 presidential election because of the administration’s 1995 ban on “assault weapons.”
But some, like longtime gun-control advocate Mark Glaze, feel Hillary Clinton should embrace and be proud of her husband’s past.
“The Clintons pulled off the almost-impossible by giving us the background check system and banning assault weapons,” said Glaze. “That’s something President Obama wasn’t able to do. Their political interest lies in owning, rather than obscuring, that accomplishment.”
Clinton’s approach of tackling the gun debate head on, instead of reactively, may very well win her points from even her harshest critics. But then again, it could also sink her campaign entirely.

That skank stinks she don’t only hate guns she hates kids and wants partial birth abortion legalized. I wish she would’ve been aborted. She claims she’s spent her career protecting children. And she wants to murder then and then declare it wrong if you want a gun to defend your kids. She’s a nasty dirty pedophile lezzo. I can’t say what I wish on that sh$t smelling ugly hag
Hillary and Jane Fonda have a lot in common! – Traitors among us —
Oh and the inappropriate use of the term “uncontrollable”.
Why do the Elite think we NEED Controlled? Because THAT is the control she is blathering about, most certainly not about aim. . .
You know Hildabeast if you would actually spend time controlling CRIMINALS like yourself, instead of law abiding citizens . . .
What DOES it matter?????
Hildabitch LIES, You know that right? She is vying with Obastard as the most political lies ever spoken in America.
Here is 1120 of his :

Killary, the first thing you need to remember is dont disarm lawful owners of firearms. You need to start by disarming criminals in the major cities who illegaly posses guns. In fact a majority of inner city people who statistically commit the majority of the violent crime in this country. How about when they are a convicted felon who commits a crime with or is caught with a firearm put them in prison for 10 years the first time, 20 years the second time, and life the third time. Remember these are people who broke the law at LEAST once to be a convicted felon. I bet the rate of firearm crimes amongst these groups who commit the majority of violent crime would drop greatly. She will never do that because she would have to incarcerate at least half of the idiots who vote demorat.
Hitlery has no problem sending the Pentagon’s armed employees to force a foreign population’s compliance with an arbitrary US diktat. Fascism has consumed US politics.
Lookout, theres snipers everywhere.
Hey you say chain gangs and executions. My problem with that is law enforcement and the judiciary are corupt and can be trusted to do that honestly and justly. In my city the police are the enforcers for city government and if they want you out of buisness they can do most anything and get away with it.
Hilary, frompy, Clinton, needs to go back to Arkansas, hook up with uncle Jed and Granny….. She can sit on her rocking chair, sow clothes for Billy and her grandchild. Her and Granny can exchange recipes on how to make possum pie. Then they can go play with each other in the cement pond with there gay friend Barry Barack sotero obama….Granny has more brains then Hilary and Barry put together. Our country is the laughing stalk off the world because of those two….the only thing they know about gun control is what Jethro taught them….
Since Obama and her are both still alive, I’m saying that gun owners have shown considerable “control” with regards to firearm usage. Considering both of them are doing all they can to circumvent the U.S Constitution, perhaps they should thank God we show that kind of restraint and tolerance of idiot Socialists.
US government is fascist.
The most simple fact in the world is that when Hillary’s lips move she lies. She is 5 feet of poorly proportioned BS under a wad of hair, a manatee with legs, she is Bill’s finale revenge for laughing at him, Monica, and his hand dipped cigars. [Hope you didn’t smoke one!]
I’d like to tie her up and stick her head-first in a 55 gallon drum and collect a bunch of men who have to take a leak. Right in the barrel. Cheap way to get rid of this thieving, lying, white trash whore. Yeah, the Secret Service had to go to her mansion and collect $200,000 worth of stuff they stole from the White House, and, it seems, from Air Force One. Anybody who would vote for this slut needs to go out behind the house and hang themselves, She is the one who will lead a constant and powerful movement against private ownership of firearms, and “other changes” in our Constitutional rights.
Benghazi; State Dept emails! Hillary has armed body guards, but wants the rest of us to be without the same protection. Send her some cigars.
???????????
Again the gun control advocates blame the law abiding citizen for the actions of an obvious emotionaly disturbed person.
They never talk about more work to be done on the mental health system in this country and you want to know why? There isn’t any political mileage they can get from helping people who are mentaly or emotionaly ill. I get so sick of the hipocrits. Hillary was so concerned about gun control she decided the U.S.
embassy in Benghazi Libya didn’t need more security. The result was a dead U.S. ambassador and two dead American Veterans.
Let’s review:
You do realize that Hillary hasn’t driven a car or done anything ordinary Americans do on a daily basis since at least 1993 so just how does she relate to middle class citizens. Now instead of worrying about addressing the real issues she wants to do more gun grabbing?
Accomplishments? Major failures too numerous to list all of them covering 6 roles in government and no major specific positive accomplishments. These include:
Fired from the Watergate committee
Cattle future corruption
Hillarycare
Travelgate
Filegate
Voted against major tax
cuts and the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 and the
Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003,
“Re-Set” button with Russia – How’d
THAT work out?
– “Arab Spring ”
– Benghazi
Investigations of sexual misconduct by both ambassadors as well as security personnel were called off on the orders of senior State Department officials on Clinton’s watch.
The State Department misplaced and lost some $6 billion due to the improper filing of contracts.
Established and ran her own e/mail server while Secretary of State in defiance of government and State Department policy and regulations. Only one reason to do that and that’s to hide correspondence.
Hillary has no accomplishments. No one can name just one other than (1) being cheated on as first lady; (2) being handed a Senate seat from a heavily Democratic state, where she accomplished nothing legislatively (other than her vote for the Iraq War, which I think was terrific!); and (3) being appointed secretary of state, whereupon she participated in one foreign policy disaster after another.
Now in addition to all of that the Democrat party, in spite of their continued clamoring of all it has done, has had no accomplishments on the economy and health care.
1. The economy is still in the tank. 93 million stopped looking for work. The lowest workforce participation rate since the 1970’s. True unemployment at almost 11% not the fudged BLS statistical 5.5%. Some accomplishment!
2. Millions of Americans lost their health insurance which they were satisfied met their needs. It was replaced for some, but not all, with obscenely expensive policies with benefits they didn’t need (maternity coverage for 60 year old women & men as an example) and deductibles that they couldn’t afford before any coverage kicked in.
If they were poor enough they got our money through government subsidies (although much of that is in doubt at the moment) to cover some of this expense but if you were just average middle class you received no subsidy and therefore in many cases were left with no insurance. And so now there are still30 million left uninsured just as before this fiasco began. Some progress on that front.
The Democrat future is:
“A war on women”, but hypocritically pays its female staffers in the White House 72 cents for every dollar paid a male staffer, and elect the “First Woman President” who has no qualifications. She has done nothing other than be a second rate corrupt lawyer in Arkansas and then live off of the government as a former first lady, senator, Secretary of State and of course tap the Clinton Foundation, rife with foreign government donations, for living expenses. Now there’s something to vote for.
The party has none and it’s stuck in the 70’s with a playbook it can’t or won’t revise.
Then There’s the fact that the Clinton Foundation seems to have been little more than a personal cash cow for the Clintons and their friends, with $400 million out of $500 million going to pay “employees” of the foundation, plus another $25 million for employees’ travel, and only $75 million, or 15 percent of the total haul, being used for anything vaguely related to “charity.” The Clinton Foundation makes Al Sharpton’s National Action Network almost look legit.
Do we really want a 1992 redo to begin in 2016. Not in my mind.
It is amazing that her and Willie Boy have lived in Arkansas before their political career started for rusty zipper himself. They own so many guns that issue becomes ridiculous. Yet, it doesn’t apply to her.
The US Government purchased 1.6 Billion rounds of ammo., I sincerely hope a several have Obama’s, Hillary’s and Bill’s name on a few hundred of them….!
Either Hillary does not know what the gun laws are, or doesn’t care so that she can pander to her base. Can’t get a bill through congress to keep guns out of the hands of domestic abusers? Since when? it’s a disabling offense. Can’t keep guns out of the hands of criminals? Gee whiz, didn’t you notice that felons are barred from having weapons, and that no background check is going to keep them from obtaining them? Street dealers don’t do background checks. Unstable mental illness? How are we going to know until such persons are committed to a mental health facility–and after which they are prohibited persons? Suspend the Constitution and the right to due process of law? Same for those on the terrorist watch list: if they’ve committed a crime, then arrest and try them. If they are merely suspicious, then they haven’t committed a crime and you can’t take away their guns simply on “suspicion.” Utter nonsense.
The Second Amendment is the firewall for the rest of the Amendments.
∆ Best comment, ever.
Let’s all hope Hillary, the vile & Evil, does not get elected. If she does, we are in for one hell of a war on guns that she will mount. To be on the safe side of the topic, please don’t ever again vote for anyone with a “D” behind their name or, for that matter, anyone with an “R” behind their name when the “R” stands for Rino.
Perhaps the SS should drop off Hildabeast in Chicago after midnight to reason with the drug dealing GangBangers,
Every gun owner,hunter,collector,or just plain target shooter will NEVER VOTE for CLINTON.And that is a FEW MILLION PEOPLE!
It is quite obvious by not addressing the real issue is the only thing she wants is to incarcerate more criminals and let them back out to influence the next generation to be criminals since the national average $33,000 tax dollars a year per criminal behind bars. Not to mention the need for more government dependent people such as law enforcement, probation,security and judicial personal. All in the name for more government power. The judicial system of America along with our evolving society is the biggest laughing joke in the world. England is second to America when it comes to incarceration rate and America’s incarceration rate on average population is 6 TIMES HIGHER! 1 in 99 Americans will go to prison all for the sake of government capitalism while the innocent die and get influenced by this growing scum of a society. We need follow the lead of other countries who do not have nearly as much crime and scum diease floating around. Chain gangs and death sentences then see what happens to the crime rate and our where investment capital goes. Howevere you know as well as I do this will never happen because the half of the American is owned by the main stream media and there do not have a clue about anything other than what their politicians want them to believe. On a second note we do not need to remove the Confederate flag, we need to remove the psychiatric drugs off the streets .
So tired of hearing about Hillary Clinton, or any Clinton, for that matter. As for guns, she never fired or even held a gun in her hands her whole life, that idiot. So what does she know about other than trying to get power for herself and to make other people miserable by taking away their sources of enjoyment and self defense?
Do not let people who know nothing about guns, tell those of us who know about guns, about guns.

Let’s hope that was the last of her. But please share those page do people will know what she’s planning. They’ll pull back off this if it’s not working then she’ll be sarong something different, so we need this info out! Thanks and let’s help Rand! !
Hillary and the Democrats want nothing short of total control of the people in America. Unfortunately, the Republicans are not any better. The Republicans sit on their hands while Obama violates his pledge to uphold the Constitution of the United States by granting Amnesty to Illegals. Only congress has the right to make any law concerning Immigration!
We need a new party in America! Let’s return to Constitutional Law! Shut down Nafta and all trade agreements. Re-establish our border security and send the illegals home! Bring our troops home to secure our borders!
Skunks never change their stripes. This lying dirtbag should be in jail, not running for public office.
I’m probably preaching to the choir here, but it’s obvious to everyone that liberals want a defenseless America, so they can “fix” everything wrong with it. Too many countries have gone down that road in the past… with disastrous results… but these dangerous socialistic do-gooders refuse to learn from history. Need to give them another lesson come election time…
Hillary blows alot of hot air. Maybe if she pointed the wind towards bill and not the American people that can legally own firearms everyone would be happy…
She wont get my vote or a lot of others.
She wont get my vote or a lot of others.
Get all the stinking illegal immigrants out of our prisons and send them back to their own countries, that way we have room for our own criminals…..AND BUILD THE DANG FENCE!!! And for goodness sake, start using more capitol punishment. Prison should be a deterrent, not a social club for criminals. Imagine how much less crime there would be if we just enforced the laws we have already…?! Less crime and more jobs! Wow!…what a concept! And Hillary should be in jail as well, for criminal negligence or maybe conspiracy to commit murder, as well as other things. At the very least, unemployed due to lack of competence.
I whole heartedly agree with you.
However, let us use a page from the progressive (I call them oppressives)/alynski handbook and take some language over. Instead of calling them “illegal aliens” we should call them what they really are. Invaders.
Then we can call all of the politicians, bureaucrats, and all special interest groups that are wanting these invaders to come here and even enticing them to come to our country with promises of “free stuff” and a “better life” a bunch of damnable traitors.
Everyone, spread the word and use the manic left’s tactics against them. Turn their “compassion” into what it really is for all of those useful idiot/low info voters. Treachery.
Never let up when they question you and never back down when they try to “correct” you from the truth that you are speaking.
It is clear that she wants total control over the use of guns by law abiding citizens, not tougher gun laws, we all know that there are enough laws on the books already. Writing and passing more “common sense” gun laws will do nothing but further infringe upon the rights of law abiding citizens. Only the criminals will have easy access to guns.
“It is clear that she wants total control over the use of guns by law abiding citizens”
You are partially correct, however there should be a period after “total control.” After all, she has Secret Service (with innumerable weapons) for protection for her lifetime. Control is the real issue. Check history.

clinton jumping on another band-wagon. he starts out so caring and turns into the loud mouth monster we have known in the past. Why doesn’t she have that big mouth when she defies the Congress for her e-mails/ The ones she had deleted and now will share them…too bad idiot…there gone, why not before she deleted all the ones that would show her as a Traitor to the American dream? Oh, her dream was to collect billions from third countries to he clinton foundation. Another tern for a shell company named ” line my pockets for profit at American’s expense”. Or Ben-gaz-ee? Who, I don’t know that person, you trust me don’t you? I’m a power hungry snob that wants to be the first bitch in change, not first prison bitch..so NEVER VOTE FOR A clinton!
Obama in a dress no guns he and her can take over the USA.
I’m from ARKANSAS and Hillary’s not here any longer. She protested in Missouri years ago SOLID anti gun and she had NO right to be there.Bill Clinton is right Al Gore lost because he’s anti gun. We need more Hillary control because she can’t control her views.
