  • Hillary was asked if she believed the Second Amendment was a constitutional right, and she completely declined to answer the question.
  • Hillary continued to state how all constitutional rights are up to the possibility of being regulated.
  • She said, “If it is a constitutional right, then it, like every other constitutional right, is subject to reasonable regulations.”
  • Only responsible gun owners have a right…. Yet who decides who is responsible?

Democratic presidential front runner Hillary Clinton declined to say if she thinks the Second Amendment guarantees the constitutional right to bear arms during an interview Sunday with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos.

Stephanopoulos asked Clinton, “Do you believe that an individual’s right to bear arms is a constitutional right, that it’s not linked to service in a militia?”

“I think that for most of our history, there was a nuanced reading of the Second Amendment until the decision by the late Justice Scalia, and there was no argument until then that localities and states and the federal government had a right, as we do with every amendment, to impose reasonable regulations,” she replied. “So I believe we can have common-sense gun safety measures consistent with the Second Amendment.”

Clinton called her proposed legislation “constitutionally permissible.”

Stephanopoulos interjected that “the Heller decision also does say there can be some restrictions, but that’s not what I asked.”

“I said, do you believe that their conclusion that an individual’s right to bear arms is a constitutional right?” he pressed.

“If it is a constitutional right, then it, like every other constitutional right, is subject to reasonable regulations, and what people have done with that decision is to take it as far as they possibly can and reject what has been our history from the very beginning of the republic, where some of the earliest laws that were passed were about firearms,” Clinton said.

She acknowledged that “reasonable people can say – as I do – responsible gun-owners have a right,” but “the rest of the American public has a right to require certain kinds of regulatory, responsible actions to protect everyone else.”

    Hillary is a total fruitcake, full of fruit and nuts. A gun is a tool, just like wrench. sometimes both have a nut in the grip.
