It really, really is unbelievable what you hear on the news, especially after an unspeakable event like Sunday’s mass shooting in Las Vegas that killed at least 58.
It was bad enough when shadow president Hillary Clinton decided to tie the mass shooting to the NRA and current legislation regarding noise suppressors.
The crowd fled at the sound of gunshots.
Imagine the deaths if the shooter had a silencer, which the NRA wants to make easier to get.

That was irresponsible at best, but not new for the Democrats. We all know Clinton knows nothing about firearms, but a former FBI agent?
As The Daily Caller reported, Manny Gomez, a former FBI agent who was a guest on MSNBC on Monday, told the host that “hunters would make an argument that they need that so that their target, whether it’s a deer, etc. don’t hear the shot.”

If there is a hunter in the Twitchy readership who would make that argument, raise your hand. OK, we didn’t think so. Check out the video, though:
No. No they don’t.

Wow. Just wow.

Spoken suspiciously like someone who has never been hunting and has never met someone who has been hunting.

I've never been hunting – just a basic knowledge of fire arms would do it.
