"We cannot let a minority of people—and that's what it is, it is a minority of people—hold a viewpoint that terrorizes the majority of people." Evidently Clinton's idea of a more thoughtful conversation about gun control involves equating disagreement with terrorism while claiming some opinions are so dangerous that "we cannot let" people hold them.This is part of a continuing series on the Left's flexible definition of free speech. No word on whether Hillary hopped into a car sporting a "Tolerance" bumper sticker.

As one of Hillary's idols, the early 20th century Chinese progressive Mao Tse Tung said, "Political power comes from the barrel of a gun." She wants the government to have all the political power, so of course she has to take any political power -or guns- from the hands of The People.
Next up, restrict that pesky freedom of speech. As the great Russian progressive mind of the 20th century, Joseph Stalin said, "Ideas are more powerful than guns. We do not allow our people to have guns; why should we let them have ideas?" They'll make sure to teach that common core til it's bored into your skull, and all opposition won't so much be criminalized as it will be demonized, so unless you want to be a pariah in the new Socialist Liberal Democratic Progressive TrustUSWe'reReallyFree order, you'll have to tow the Party line.
Quotey Quiz: See if you can spot the three subtle differences between mistaken quote A and actual quote B?
"Ideas are more powerful than guns. We do not allow our people to have guns; why should we let them have ideas?"
"Ideas are more dangerous than guns. We would not allow our enemies to have guns; why should we let them have ideas?"
But other than its accuracy, its context, its meaning and its irrelevance to gun control, it's a chilling look into Hillary Clinton's psyche.
As for Mao, the Clintons obediently comply with Chinese law permitting only one child per couple. Need we say more, comrades?
"Ideas are more dangerous than guns. We would not allow our enemies to have guns; why should we let them have ideas?"
Frankly, this "actual" quote sounds more eerily similar to what The Golden Girl said than the other version.
Her quote, by the way, is probably the best opponent campaign ad material since John Kerry's "I voted for the bill before I voted against it." The more she talks, the more plausible it becomes that she does indeed have brain damage.
"We're right... and when we're wrong we're even righter!"
See if you can spot the subtle differences between mistaken quote A and actual quote B:
"We're right... and when we're wrong we're even righter!"
"But resist we much. We must, and we will much about that be committed."
Not your best "repeating = mockery" effort. Clearly living under Clintonist-Stalinist-Maoist-Sharptonist oppression has put you off your game.
