Time to buy more firearms stock, apparently.

Seriously, this was inevitable.

[Hillary] Clinton proposed repealing legislation that shields gun manufacturers, distributors and dealers of firearms from most liability suits, including in cases of mass shootings.

CBS News reports that shares of gun makers surged after Clinton’s gun control speech.

At 1 p.m. ET, shares of Smith & Wesson’s rose more than 5 percent to $17.44, while shares of Sturm Ruger’s climbed 3 percent to $57.96. Sales at both companies also climbed in recent years after politicians called for gun control measures.

Two things: one, advocating the repeal of that legislation isn’t setting policy; it’s peddling porno.  Which is fine, but Hillary Clinton should just admit that she’s a political smut merchant and be done with it.  Second: do top-level Democrats all secretly own stock in firearms manufacturers? – Because they seem bound and determined to keep those companies nicely in the black.

  1. Oh, the law around lawsuits does need to change – we need to make it clear that anyone (government or property owner) that sets a gun-free victim zone policy and does not provide proper security can be sued for that decision, and make sure that it includes things like pizza chains that send their drivers into war zones and don’t allow them to carry.
