Clinton Once Touted Her Own Experience With Guns: Americans Don't 'Cling to Guns'

Tonight’s Democratic presidential debate promises to focus heavily on gun control. But it wasn’t too long ago that the leading Democratic candidate, Hillary Clinton, touted her own gun usage and asserted that Americans don’t “cling to guns.”

As Clinton said in the 2008 presidential race, in response to Obama’s statement that Americans cling to their guns and religion, “I disagree with Sen. Obama’s assertion that people in our country cling to guns and have certain attitudes about trade and immigration simply out of frustration.”
