(38,613 posts)I was going to go with "Clinton chose Halliburton profits over the lives of American soldiers" but the thread was locked.
With this short-term desperation to discredit Sanders before any primary votes are cast, some Clinton supporters are doing her more harm than good. And if they're going to use over-the-top hyperbole to do so, they'll have to take it as well as they give it.

(3,655 posts)Q: Do you support the DC handgun ban?
A: I want to give local communities the authority over determining how to keep their citizens safe. This case youre referring to is before the Supreme Court.
Q: But what do you support?
A: I support sensible regulation that is consistent with the constitutional right to own and bear arms.
Q: Is the DC ban consistent with that right?
A: I think a total ban, with no exceptions under any circumstances, might be found by the court not to be. But DC or anybody else [should be able to\ come up with sensible regulations to protect their people.
Q: But do you still favor licensing and registration of handguns?
A: What I favor is what works in NY. We have one set of rules in NYC and a totally different set of rules in the rest of the state. What might work in NYC is certainly not going to work in Montana. So, for the federal government to be having any kind of blanket rules that theyre going to try to impose, I think doesnt make sense.

Hmmm, I just got this strange hunger for waffles for some reason.
