CNN Panel Erupts In Laughter As Trump Spokesman Says Hillary Wants To Take Your Guns Away

http://crooksandliars.com/cltv/2016/05/cnn-panel-erupts-laughter-trump

The Republicans have been saying this for the last 7 1/2 years that President Obama was going to take your guns away and it hasn't happened. Now, they're just spewing the same tired talking points about Secretary Clinton that have no basis in reality.

Gun control is a losing issue for Dems and has been for years. I hope that the Dem nominee wins the GE, and will vote for that individual, but I have no idea why Hills would make the silly, novice mistake of saying that we should consider "Australian style" gun control - that type of control contravenes the Second Amendment and would never pass Congress, so in essence Hills said that she supports unconstitutional gun control that has zero chance of passing. Neither President Obama nor President Clinton would have made such a rookie mistake. In addition to be completely unlikeable, Hills is a terrible politician.

...remove firearms from this nation so fast it would make it's head spin if it could only get the votes to do so? I'd like to meet someone so laughable naive.

The only thing laughable is that CNN thinks people will react to their hamhanded mockery.
