Stacey Dash: Obama and Hillary Clinton are to blame for politicizing Orlando

“I didn’t politicize this, the president did and Hillary Clinton did,” Dash told the Washington Examiner in a sit-down interview.

She said President Obama and Clinton are using the shooting rampage, which left 49 victims dead, to advance an anti-gun agenda.

“Nobody is messing with my Second Amendment, so my feeling is this: Had there been more people there that were able to carry guns – good guys — they could have stopped this guy,” Dash said. “They could have stopped him from killing anyone. But no, there was no good guy there with a weapon.”

She said stricter gun laws would have done nothing to stop the shooter.

“Guns don’t kill people, people kill people. This is proof. This man was from Afghanistan … was on a watch list. He was a bad guy. The guns. How’d he get the guns? By following gun laws. Doing stricter gun laws is not going to do it,” she said. The shooter, Omar Mateen, was born in New York to parents originally from Afghanistan.

After initial news broke about the shooting Sunday, Dash tweeted several screenshots of the shooter’s apparent voter registration listing him as a Democrat, writing: “Mr. President this man voted for you, is he an Islamic Terrorist?”

Dash, who recently launched the “Women Vote Trump PAC,” also said such an attack “would not go unanswered under President Trump” and stood by his renewed calls to temporarily ban non-American Muslims from entering the United States.

“What he [Trump] is saying to do is just keep your eyes open. And if people are on a watch list – this man was on a watch list for 10 months. Why would you ever take him off?” Dash told the Examiner.
