That&#8217;s how her husband did it. There are universal background checks, the three gun dealers from whom I bought firearms at gun shows all required that I go through background checks. The FBI admits that their interviews with criminals found that less than one percent had bought their firearms at gun shows. Has there ever been a mass-shooting incident where the gunman used a gun he bought at a gun show? It&#8217;s more likely that a criminal would buy their gun by lying on their federal form like the fellow in South Carolina earlier this year. Or from a guy in a dark parking lot.<\/p>\n<p>As far as a &#8220;timeout&#8221; goes, didn&#8217;t Flanagan get fired from the TV station in February of 2013? So how much of a timeout are we looking at here, Hil? <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2015\/aug\/26\/virginia-gunman-vester-flanagan-wdbj-2012-memos-medical-help\">The Guardian<\/a> reports that the TV station told Flanagan to seek mental health care in order to save his job. He didn&#8217;t, so there was no mental health flag on his NICS background check. You know, despite the fact that he wrote that he was a &#8220;powder keg&#8221; and about to &#8220;blow&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Hillary had better check her demographics map &#8211; a third of American families have guns in their homes. There are enough privately-owned guns in the country to arm every American. Those kinds of stats are going to be tough to beat at the polls. Guess what? The majority of those guns are used legally every day in the country. Legal and law-abiding gun owners have done a great job of not shooting people&#8230;every day. <\/p>\n<p>By the way, the number of women who own guns in the US has been climbing steadily in the past few years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In order to capitalize on Vester Flanagan&#8217;s murderous rampage yesterday, Hillary Clinton, the presidential candidate, promised &hellip; <a title=\"Hillary promises to be the gun control President\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=61581\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Hillary promises to be the gun control President<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":29540,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[82],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-61581","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-gun-grabbing-fascists"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61581","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=61581"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61581\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/29540"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=61581"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=61581"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=61581"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
