With other prominent liberals advocating gun control, it was only a matter of time before Hillary Clinton reared her ugly head.
On Friday the Democrat presidential loser and chronic cougher waded into the gun debate by encouraging lawmakers to infringe on the Second Amendment following Wednesday’s school shooting in Florida.
In a lengthy Twitter screed, Clinton claimed “a majority of Americans support common sense gun reform,” while telling her followers to “remember these feelings in November” during mid-term elections.
Mass shootings are not inevitable. The majority of Americans support common sense gun reform. Though we feel angry, heartbroken, even helpless now, we have the power to elect people who will protect lives, not gun sellers’ profits. Remember these feelings in November, and VOTE.

The failed 2016 election candidate also pushed for “gun safety laws that keep guns out of the hands of those who shouldn’t have them,” and claimed five school shootings occur every month.
Now is the time to listen to the students, teachers, and parents demanding that we end this carnage once and for all with gun safety laws that keep guns out of the hands of those who shouldn’t have them.

This week we lost 17 Americans in Parkland – the deadliest school shooting since Sandy Hook in 2012. Since then, 438 people have been shot and 138 killed in over 230 school shootings. That’s 5 school shootings every month, 16 of which classify as “mass shootings.”

Clinton’s daughter Chelsea also responded to accusations she was politicizing the tragedy by asserting, “I’m not a witch.”
