Look, the NRA and the other gun lobby members should be moving rapidly to work with Congress on this legislation. Clinton called that argument a "rhetorical trap that the gun lobby tries to set, basically claiming if you can't stop every shooting, every incident, you shouldn't try to stop any." Amid a push to tighten gun laws in America following the gruesome slaughter in Orlando this past weekend, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton offered tough words for the gun lobby and mocking ones for her GOP opponent. In a Wednesday interview with The Huffington Post, Clinton argued that she and others had essentially forced Donald Trump to consider legislation that would prevent those on the terrorist watch list from being able to buy firearms. Civil libertarians have expressed concern that the terrorist watch list is too broad -- and includes many who don't belong on it -- and shouldn't be used to deny individuals their constitutional rights.
