clearly differs with Sanders. Fighting the NRA isn't new for Clinton, who fought them for years while Sanders voted against the Brady bill and against allowing people to sue gun manufacturers."

How do you make the most Progressive Democratic presidential candidate look bad? HerbChestnut Nov 2015 #3

Gun control is very important for many and IS the Big Picture. riversedge Nov 2015 #9

And I trust Bernie to get good gun control legislation passed. HerbChestnut Nov 2015 #10

With which aspects of Bernie's gun control stance do you disagree? JDPriestly Nov 2015 #19

Moore. "I was surprised that he had voted against gun control as many times as he had" thanks RSF Cha Nov 2015 #4

They love Michael Moore.... sheshe2 Nov 2015 #6

I would certainly hope they wouldn't throw Michael under the bus like they have everyone else who Cha Nov 2015 #7

Interesting. Thanks. riversedge Nov 2015 #8

Was he fine with this Hillary flyer? jfern Nov 2015 #12

Ancient news. Got anything current? George II Nov 2015 #27

So nothing Hillary did before 2009 matters? jfern Nov 2015 #29

I never said that. Why don't you delve into Sanders' vindictive political background and history... George II Nov 2015 #33

Bernie vindictive? Talk about projection.. jfern Nov 2015 #34

You would be VERY surprised if you did some research. George II Nov 2015 #37

No need to make shit up jfern Nov 2015 #40

Yes, I agree with you there. George II Nov 2015 #44

George II 27. Ancient news. Got anything current? (this thread) Omaha Steve Nov 2015 #54

But, but,but....Moore voted for Nader. Armstead Nov 2015 #13

Moore's tweet about deer zalinda Nov 2015 #14

Yes. Deer cause many accidents. JDPriestly Nov 2015 #20

So to avoid a problem with deer in the northeast we should "cull" the young children of Chicago? George II Nov 2015 #28

Vermont literally has the lowest number off gun murders per 100k people. phleshdef Nov 2015 #32

Exactly. But Sanders always rationalizes his many votes against the Brady Bill... George II Nov 2015 #35

It has the lowest gun murders though. That distinction does matter, at least somewhat. phleshdef Nov 2015 #38

Gun deaths are gun deaths - whether they're intentional or due to stupidity. George II Nov 2015 #39

I disagree. Suicide is a totally different thing. phleshdef Nov 2015 #41

It works for Vermont, but if he wants to be president... vorgan24 Nov 2015 #43

Considering his very pro-gun control votes in recent years, he doesn't need to see anything. phleshdef Nov 2015 #45

Has he admited that he made a mistake on voting against the Brady bill... vorgan24 Nov 2015 #47

I dont know. I just know his recent votes have been correct. phleshdef Nov 2015 #48

So we shouldn't hold politicians accountable for past votes? vorgan24 Nov 2015 #49

Only if they havent seen the light since said past votes. phleshdef Nov 2015 #50

And you're exactly correct... vorgan24 Nov 2015 #51

"Sanders voted against the Brady gun control bill? Voted FIVE times against it" yes he did Michael Cha Nov 2015 #16

Glug Glug. BeanMusical Nov 2015 #18

Is that the sound of Sanders choking on his gun record? George II Nov 2015 #36

No, it's the sound one does when smearing feces. But some people get oblivious to that sound... BeanMusical Nov 2015 #55
