Donald Trump appears to have hinted at the assassination of his rival for the presidency, Hillary Clinton, by US gun owners bent on stopping her path to the White House.

The Republican presidential hopeful said "Second Amendment people" - gun owners or those backing gun rights - could prevent Clinton winning office and picking new US Supreme Court justices http://www.9news.com.au/world/2016/08/1 ... 5WT4w1S.99

Not a Trump or Hillary supporter, but are you sure he didn't simply mean intensely mobilizing his supporters to vote against her?

you guys twist and manipulated everything he says

if Hillary became tyrannical and tried to ban guns by any means then there probably would be resistance

the 2nd amendment is not negotiable

Hillary doesn't propose banning guns however...

Man, the [big] media have been absolutely terrible this year.

Seems like they're doing everything they can to get Hillary elected by beating Bernie and then Trump.

They'd jump on any little scandal of Hillary to equal amounts if they were impartial (say, CNN jumps on both candidates equally with absurd interpretations).

Didn't Clinton say something pretty similar about Obama back in 08?

Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren was fairly more direct in criticizing of Trump.
"Donald Trump makes death threats because he's a pathetic coward who can't handle the fact that he's losing to a girl," she wrote on Twitter.

I think it doesn't take a genius to know he's playing a dangerous game. His comment was about "if" Clinton gets into power and appoints her own judges. He insinuated that gun owners could do something about Clinton to stop her picking anti-gun judges. I don't think he's talking about voting...he's using coded language that gun owners should "do something"....pretty potentially loaded language...it takes one gun nutjob to take this as encouragement to kill her

not the first time, Sarah Palin used coded language in 2011 ending in Democrat Gabrielle Giffords getting shot...

Sounds like the usual Republican dirty politics to me...

didn't bother Hillary in 2008, not only did she say this but the context was Barack Obama as the first African-American presidential nominee in US history

do you disavow and repudiate Hillary's racist 2008 statements?

Joe Biden in 2008 saying if Obama 'took his Barettas, he's got a problem"

I agree Joe, give me a break!

DNC seems to be the dirty ones nowadays. But then, Wikileaks only released their dirt, so who knows what the RNC is doing behind the curtains.

The DNC and a portion of the RNC don't want Trump, just as the DNC didn't want Bernie, and the media goes along with them. Bernie and Trump are your outsiders.

They'd never get a fair go, which tells you all you need to know.

Speaking of Bernie, it was reported today that he just bought a $600,000 summer house on a lake in Vermont.

Must be nice to be a one-percenter like him.

I feel someone made Bernie an offer he couldn't refuse. ¿Plata o Plomo?

There is equal chance that Trump met either lobby aggressively or shoot Hillary, or maybe both. The garbage that comes out of Trump's mouth, who knows. Maybe he should ask Putin to take her out.

A New York City politician in the late 1960's named Mario Proccacino had a great expression for this type of hypocrisy "limousine liberal"

Author Tom Wolfe during that era coined a related expression that describes many SJW's well "radical chic"
