https://www.hillaryclinton.com/issues/gun-violence-prevention/*) Closing the “Charleston Loophole.” Hillary will push Congress to close the loophole that allows a gun sale to proceed without a completed background check if that check has not been completed within three days. This loophole allowed the alleged Charleston shooter to purchase a gun even though he had a criminal record.
-- This allows the feds to deny gun purchases by simply delaying a background check. Cut personnel and cut gun sales.
*) Repeal the gun industry’s unique immunity protection. Hillary believes the gun industry must be held accountable for violence perpetrated with their guns. Hillary will lead the charge to repeal the so-called “Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act,” a dangerous law that prevents victims of gun violence from holding negligent manufacturers and dealers accountable for violence perpetrated with their guns.
-- Frivolous lawsuits by NYC, Chicago, and every liberal victim in a gun free zone will destroy gun companies by making them spend all their money on legal defense. No profits, no company.
*) Keep military-style weapons off our streets. Military-style assault weapons do not belong on our streets. They are a danger to law enforcement and to our communities. Hillary will work to keep assault weapons off our streets and supports reinstating the assault weapons ban.
-- Gun confiscation, plain and simple. Start with the scary black rifles.
