Clinton *did* shout about guns. Literally

Granted it was Bill Clinton, but these days I can't determine if Hillary is distancing herself from Bill or endorsing his policies. However, I'd say on this issue, she would agree.

Clinton: "Shout down militia backers"

From a school-girl frightened for her father's safety to a woman uneasy about pro-militia colleagues, anxious Westerners confided their concerns about growing anti-government sentiment to President Clinton in a very public forum.

The president used his first TV town hall in more than a year to exhort them to fight back, suggesting: "You ought to stand up and double your fist and stick it in the sky and shout 'em down."

That sounds an awful lot like "shouting about gun control". And I'd say what has Hillary done since regarding this issue? NOTHING.

1. She should shout!

Keep shouting Hillary! BTW, Hillary has not been in the Senate in years. Pretty hard to vote for something when you have no vote power. What has Sanders done?

3. The fact that she tried to use this as being victimized by sexism from Sanders is pathetic

And that is resonating in the media. She fucked up on this. Badly.

4. For once, actually, the media isn't falling for it.

6. Is this the same media you all hate because Bernie doesn't get enough attention?

LMAO

9. Well, I've never claimed that...

But go ahead and defend Hillary's playing the sexism card if you like.

2. Another poll driven attempt at meaninglessness.

5. ffs, Sanders literally shouts about EVERYTHING

...that's his thing. Funny so many supporters going through contortions to make it seem less ridiculous for him telling someone else to stop shouting. You think people can't see that?

Besides, we should all be shouting about the way the gun lobby has blocked meaningful reforms.

7. Everybody sees it!

Bernie is becoming laughable.

8. Distancing or endorsing...

I think it depends on whether the current hour is divisible by three, if the NASDAQ is within 5% of yesterday's close, and Venus is in retrograde.

10. A pro Clinton op from you.

I have to say I'm a little surprised but when wingers go after her with lies like they have been Clinton support grows. Welcome aboard and thanks for the op.
