Charlie Gibson notes that it is the one-year anniversary of the Virginia Tech shootings. He notes that both talk about gun control less than they used to, and asks why.
Hillary says she just did an event with Mayor Nutter on inner city violence. Hillary says she would bring back the COPS program. She insists that it would bring down crime, even though no causal link between the program and lower crime rates was ever established.
She says she would reinstate the assault weapons ban.
“I respect the Second Amendment, I respect the rights of lawful gun owners… Most lawful gun owners want to keep guns out of the wrong hands.”
UPDATE: Obama says he never favored an all-out ban on handguns. Either a lot of reporting on him is wrong, or he’s lying.
Hillary: “What I support is sensible restrictions on guns that are consistent with the Second Amendment.”
Q: What about the D.C. gun ban? Do you see that as a sensible restriction?
“I think a total ban with no exceptions might be found by the Court not to be. But I don’t know the facts.”
Yeah, it’s not like Hillary has lived and worked in Washington since 1993.
She touts local solutions on guns, cites New York City vs. the rest of the state.
