Oh, get a load of this.

Hillary seems to have decided that those bogus “90% of all Americans think gun owners should be disarmed and ground up for compost” polls are actually real.

Hillary Clinton Believes It’s Time to Act on Gun Violence

America simply cannot accept as “normal” about 33,000 gun deaths every year. The vast majority of the American people – including law abiding gun owners – believe we can and must do better. Hillary Clinton lived in Arkansas and represented Upstate New York – she knows that gun ownership is part of the fabric of many law-abiding communities. But as a nation we can no longer allow guns to fall into the hands of domestic abusers, other violent criminals, and the seriously mentally ill.

And since anyone not working for the government who would want to own a gun must reasonably fall into one of those categories, she has decided to take Executive Action!

…by doing a whole bunch of totalitarian stuff, but here’s my personal favorite…

Tighten the gun show and Internet sales loophole if Congress won’t. If Congress refuses to act, Clinton will take administrative action to require that any person attempting to sell a significant number of guns be deemed “in the business” of selling firearms. This would ensure that high-volume gun sellers are covered by the same common sense rules that apply to gun stores—including requiring background checks on gun sales.

No, its principal effect would be chilling the hell out of anybody who thought maybe selling one of his guns without going through an FFL might be a good thing to do. Because being “in the business” without a federal license is a federal crime, the penalty for which involves being placed under the bang-you-in-the-ass federal prison. Unless you’re a California politician or somebody important like that.

What a sense of history this woman has. It was exactly the practice of allowing ATF goons to decide who was “in the business” and who wasn’t back in the seventies that made them the beloved characters in gunowner lore that they still are today. And Clinton wants to bring those halcyon days back to us, by imperial decree.

There’s also something her writers call the “Charleston Loophole,” which involves removing any assurance that, once you’ve applied for a place in her “comprehensive background check” queue, the government has any responsibility to ever complete it and permit you to legally purchase any firearm. You domestic terrorist, you.

Lots more at the link and it’s all depressing stuff, including a shiny new “assault weapons” ban, the sum effect of which is to suddenly make Donald Trump look not so bad by comparison.

    Yeah, I started reading some of that drivel as well. Just before reminding myself I can’t STAND reading Socialist, Progressive, anti-freedom crap like that, I noticed the words “significant number”…

    Anyone want to lay odds the people she is pandering to feel “1” is a significant number (it’s greater than zero, which is insignificant, right?)?

    The real problem, of course, is that no kind of “background check” is going to stop a criminal from getting a gun, or a knife, or a screwdriver… The BC is a non answer to the wrong question. I always cringe when the very first thing the cops want to know after a shooting is: “Where did the gun come from?” A silly rhetorical question, since it doesn’t matter in the least compared to what was done with it. And, funny thing, they don’t usually ask the same question if some other weapon is used. Why is that, do you suppose?

    In the show “Longmire”, a cop show set in Wyoming, the first thing the characters ever did when they saw a gun was to ask if it was registered! The Ministry of Propaganda continues to instruct the peons…

    Hmmm, I wonder if the death rate goes up after applying Hitlery’s wish list, will she give us back our guns?

    At some point people are going to stop paying attention to the regulations.

    If that show wasn’t fiction Wyoming’s murder rate would be more than double.

    Substitute ‘car’ for ‘gun’ in that Hillary paragraph and see what you think…
