During a May 6th speech at a National Council for Behavioral Health conference, while making the case that gun laws are far too lenient and need to be "reined in," Hillary Clinton asserted, "We're way out of balance" on guns.
According to the National Journal, "Clinton said she supports Second Amendment rights, [but] she added that there needs to be a proper trade-off between safety and freedom."
Clinton stated that the idea "that almost anyone can have a gun anywhere at any time" has "become almost an article of faith." She went on to say that this does not serve to the betterment of most people.
Furthermore, Clinton reportedly criticized laws similar to Georgia's new Safe Carry Protection Act, which expands concealed carry into churches, certain government buildings, schools, and unsecured portions of airports. She believes expanding the places where law-abiding citizens can carry guns will only lead to "more deadly violence that could otherwise be avoided."

She's a liar, of course, and knows full well that this is not true. There are *plenty* of restrictions on gun possession already, including restrictions on CCP holders (in my state, anyway).
On the other hand, I hope she makes gun control a central tenet of her presidential run.

Well I'm guess she is running..

"...there needs to be a proper trade-off between safety and freedom."
Fascist bitch.
Without freedom, there is no safety, and my rights don't come from government.

Our politicians and bureaucrats are what need to be reined in.

She just lost. LOL!

Big mistake.
Her old man told Obama to stay away from gun talk before an election. Now his wife wades into the weeds and paints herself as a gun-Nazi.
Unless she figures out a way to nuance this, this is her first unforced error of the campaign. NO sane politician talks about "reining in" gun rights, especially one who wants to occupy the Oval Office.

Especially after what just happened in Colorado. You'd think one would learn.
