Related: About this forumClinton *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"
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.

(85,996 posts)...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.
