During a speaking engagement in New Hampshire, an audience member asked Hillary Clinton whether a large-scale gun confiscation like the one that occurred in Australia would be feasible in the United States. “I think it would be worth considering doing it on the national level, if that could be arranged,” was her reply.

Just like that, all of Hillary’s talk of “respecting” the Second Amendment is revealed to be nothing but hot air. “This validates what the NRA has said all along,” commented NRA-ILA Executive Director Chris W. Cox. “The real goal of gun control supporters is gun confiscation. Hillary Clinton, echoing President Obama’s recent remarks on the same issue, made that very clear.”
