First Hillaryarious equated Republicans to the Iranians. Now she equates the NRA with Iranians and Communists. Don't know how she came up with Communists. But as usual this is what the Demos do. Seek to divide in order to even have a chance at winning. What say ye?
Ratcheting up her attack on the nation’s gun lobbyists, Hillary Clinton on Wednesday said the National Rifle Association is as stubborn in its negotiating stance as “the Iranians or the communists.” “How will you keep from being sad and tired?” the woman asked Mrs. Clinton, the frontrunner for the Democratic nomination. “I think by being angry and determined,” Mrs. Clinton said.
In her comments here, she urged gun owners to break with the NRA and form a separate organization that would support gun ownership while promoting legislation aimed at preventing mass shootings. She went on to give a blistering account of the NRA’s business model, saying it acts cynically to stoke fears among gun owners that government agents flying in “black helicopters” are poised to confiscate their weapons.
“The NRA tries to keep gun owners – the ones who are members – really upset all the time so they can keep collecting their money, because they tell them they’re the only thing that’s going to stop the black helicopters from landing in the front yard and people’s guns being seized,” she said. “That’s the argument they make. And it works with some people and it has turned a lot of people into absolutists themselves.”.....snip~
