However, if you still don&#8217;t know what I&#8217;m talking about, here is the video. In it Hillary proposes a &#8220;cash for clunkers&#8221; approach to firearms. Of course, being a good Democrat I&#8217;m guessing she would use other people&#8217;s money to fund her program.<\/p>\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mpbGC4l1XYM\" width=\"420\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The NRA doesn&#8217;t think much of her proposal.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"tr_bq\"><p>\n<i>Hillary Admits Gun Confiscation is \u2018Worth Looking At\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Fairfax, Va.\u2014 Hillary Clinton said at a New Hampshire Town Hall today that gun confiscation is something \u201cworth looking at.\u201d Discussing the firearms confiscation program in Australia, Clinton admitted she would consider implementing such a system in America.<br \/>\n A voter asked, \u201cRecently, Australia managed to get away, or take away tens of thousands, millions, of handguns. In one year, they were all gone. Can we do that? If we can\u2019t, why can\u2019t we?\u201d<\/p>\n<p> Mrs. Clinton responded by describing Australia\u2019s program, and then said, \u201cI think it would be worth considering doing it on the national level, if that could be arranged.\u201d<\/p>\n<p> Chris Cox, executive director of The National Rifle Association\u2019s Institute for Legislative Action, said, \u201cThis validates what the NRA has said all along. The real goal of gun control supporters is gun confiscation. Hillary Clinton, echoing President Obama&#8217;s recent remarks on the same issue, made that very clear.\u201d<\/p>\n<p> Clinton&#8217;s call for gun confiscation follows recent comments she made at a private fundraiser late last month. While expressing support for a ban on commonly owned semi-automatic firearms, Clinton stated her belief that the Supreme Court wrongly held that the Second Amendment guarantees an individual right to self-defense.  In her own words: \u201c\u2026the Supreme Court is wrong on the Second Amendment. And I am going to make that case every chance I get.\u201d<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;Hillary Clinton just doesn\u2019t get it. The NRA\u2019s strength lies in our five million members and the tens of millions of voters who support the Second Amendment,\u201d Cox said.  \u201cA majority of Americans support this freedom, and the Supreme Court was absolutely right to hold that the Second Amendment guarantees the fundamental, individual right to keep and bear arms.  Hillary Clinton&#8217;s extreme views are completely out of touch with the American people.&#8221;<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Even Paul Barrett of Bloomberg News thinks <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2015-10-15\/why-hillary-clinton-can-t-win-by-going-after-the-nra\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">she is making a mistake<\/a>.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"tr_bq\"><p>\n<i>But Clinton may be making a mistake framing her argument in culture-war terms\u2014as a battle against the National Rifle Association, which is a conspiracy-minded extremist group that thrives when under attack. Moreover, while some of her ideas make sense, others, including her emphasis on \u201cassault weapons,\u201d come straight from a tired, ineffective gun-control playbook.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I say let her go full gun control. It worked for President Al Gore. Oh, wait, he lost both his home state of Tennessee and Bill Clinton&#8217;s home state of Arkansas over just this issue. She probably won&#8217;t lose New York over this but swing states like Ohio, Florida, and Pennsylvannia will go to her Republican opponent along with the election. <\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By now, there have been innumerable stories written on Hillary Clinton&#8217;s love for the &#8220;Australian-style&#8221; approach to gun control.&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"iawp_total_views":1,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[2094,45,1493,26],"class_list":["post-1191","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-confiscation","tag-gun-control","tag-hillary-clinton","tag-nra"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1191","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1191"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1191\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10496,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1191\/revisions\/10496"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1191"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1191"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1191"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
