Just fear mongering.
She is just pandering for votes as there is no way to actually do this.
There is no way such a thing would ever pass through congress or get approval by the supreme court so its all a load of hot air to gain the vote of wishy washy librals who dont have the brain cells to think through how it could be applicated.
Well my British friend even though I no longer reside in States I do hope you are correct. Back many years ago I remember some of my Australian friends thinking it couldn't happen there either..

Unlike Australia you have a intrenched gun culture that permeates your constitution and legal system. In your country it is a right. There is no legal way to take those guns.
300 million guns and just as many scared paranoid Americans makes it more trouble than its worth.
Why bother when there is far more cleaner and effective ways to get that tyranny ? Bush II showed quite well how big government can undermine rights and expand goverment overreach by useing external threats and fear mongering.

Yep when I was a kid and we were digging a well on the farm we hit some serious rocks.. No problem we went and bought some dynamite and solved that problem in about a half a day. It wasn't like the movies either ... Neither is a grenade. I haven't tried to buy any dynamite in the last 60 or so years but I would bet you can't just walk into your hardware store and buy a few sticks anymore..?
Guys who know how or have an interest in such things can usually come up with something.. Otherwise there is always someone who has access in the military and is a brother, friend, or patriot willing to help out.. I for the sake of many hope the stupid are not that totally stupid to start that kind of crap.
Otherwise, what a frigging waste.
Edit to add : at no time was I picking on you ... in my mind anyway... I thought we were in agreement.. sorry if you took it that way..
If you look, at the the last 20 years. So many restrictions have been slapped in place around any chemical and part that could be used in asymmetrical warefare. Hell in some states you cant buy anything but the most basic and smallest of fireworks and your chemical controls are some of the most draconian in the world that make UK gun control look like a half hearted slap on the wrist.

Yeah I'm not sure what she's thinking here. I'm guessing her advisors gauged the reaction to Bernie's rather reasonable views on the 2nd amendment and figured that going the opposite direction with it will garner some favor.

This would be shot down in the courts (pun intended) before the ink were dry on any potential Executive Order.
She is just doing more of her imbecilic pandering shtick.
