She complains that Hillary is 'politicizing' Sandy Hook. Sure, let's not talk about it that will solve the problem. That, pray for them, and maybe talk about mental illness.
And, like Bernie did, remember to give the gun makers immunity. That will make sure there are no Sandy Hooks.
"I just don't like to see it be politicized. I think that Secretary Clinton's gun record is a lot more spotty than Bernie's," Jane Sanders, the wife of the Democratic presidential candidate, said in an interview with CNN, after the network cut away from coverage of Clinton's panel in Hartford, Connecticut, that included, among others, the daughter of the principal killed at Sandy Hook Elementary in 2012.

The Republicans don't like seeing it politicized either. But then they don't do much to solve it. Here, though Jane Sanders strays into science fiction in absurdly claiming Bernie has a better record on gun control. Wow, where to start.
Sanders noted that her husband has, since 1988, "been consistently supportive of instant background checks, opposed to assault weapons, the sale and manufacture of assault weapons, for closing the gun show loophole, ending the strawman problem. And I think that's been since 1988."
By contrast, she remarked that when Clinton ran for Senate in New York, "she was very pro-gun control."
"When she ran for the presidency against Barack Obama, she was very anti-gun control in 2008," Sanders remarked. "And now that she's running against Bernie, she's back to for gun control."
The bottom line, Sanders said, is that both candidates agree that guns are an issue but that they disagree on the solution.

Sure. Hillary's solution is to try to solve the problem, Bernie's answer is 'not to solve it.'
As for records, she is leaving out an awful lot. Bernie claims he lost in 1988 by supporting an assault weapon ban that his GOP opponent opposed. What he always leaves out is that he flipped in 1990 while his GOP opponent had a change of heart.
So in 1990 Bernie opposed the ban, his GOP opponent from 1988 who had won the first time now opposed it, and the NRA supported Bernie. Then in 1993 and 1994, Bernie voted against the Brady bill five times.
In 2005, he voted to give the gun manufacturers immunity-which was basically the gold standard of the NRA agenda.
Just recently, Bernie said in a debate that allowing victims to sue the industry would destroy it and in the Daily News interview, he again opposed the Sandy Hook victims being able to sue the manufacturers for the guns used in Sandy Hook.
This is an interesting strategy to win Connecticut.
