Clinton Attacks Bernie on Guns: New York’s Illegal Guns ‘Come From Vermont’ (Mediaite)

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clintonattacked rival Bernie Sanders on gun control Monday, telling a New York audience that Sanders’ home state of Vermont was largely responsible for the gun crimes committed in the Empire State.

“When challenged on his gun stances, he frequently says, ‘You know, I represent Vermont. It’s a small rural state. We have no gun laws,'” Clinton said.

“Here’s what I want you to know,” she responded, “most of the guns that are used in crimes and violence and killings in New York come from out of state. And the state that has the highest per capita number of those guns that end up committing crimes in New York come from Vermont.”
