What Biden Said About Individual Right To Bear Arms

Presidential candidate Joe Biden who could become the next President of the United States has made very clear statements on what he plans to do with “assault weapons”. Yes, we’re talking about the AR-15 you hog hunt with, its high-capacity magazine and maybe even your semi-auto handgun.

That is of course according to the gun control movement’s definitions, which in the past has even included kid’s squirrel rifles.

Joe Biden has taken on the National Rifle Association (NRA) on the national stage and won – twice. In 1993, he shepherded through Congress the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act, which established the background check system that has since kept more than 3 million firearms out of dangerous hands. In 1994, Biden – along with Senator Dianne Feinstein – secured the passage of 10-year bans on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. As president, Joe Biden will defeat the NRA again.

Then it gives a directive on “assault weapons”.

  • Ban the manufacture and sale of assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. Federal law prevents hunters from hunting migratory game birds with more than three shells in their shotgun. That means our federal law does more to protect ducks than children. It’s wrong. Joe Biden will enact legislation to once again ban assault weapons. This time, the bans will be designed based on lessons learned from the 1994 bans. For example, the ban on assault weapons will be designed to prevent manufacturers from circumventing the law by making minor changes that don’t limit the weapon’s lethality. While working to pass this legislation, Biden will also use his executive authority to  ban the importation of assault weapons.

He also wants to regulate the possession of existing “assault weapons”.

  • Regulate possession of existing assault weapons under the National Firearms Act. Currently, the National Firearms Act requires individuals possessing machine-guns, silencers, and short-barreled rifles to undergo a background check and register those weapons with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). Due to these requirements, such weapons are rarely used in crimes. As president, Biden will pursue legislation to regulation possession of existing assault weapons under the National Firearms Act.

    This kind of stuff just reinforces my decision to switch to the democratic party. The fact that Republicans are so attenuated to any sort of “gun control” and use that topic as a dog whistle is just stupid. Guns aren’t going anywhere, AR-15s aren’t going anywhere, and semiautomatic handguns aren’t going anywhere. The NRA is completely irrelevant, just a cash cow to enrich a few.

      You sound like you are anti second amendment . Democrats want to take away the second amendment and then the first amendment .

    • Tim says:

      Exactly one of the reasons I LEFT the Democratic Party. JFK was a life member of the NRA and he wouldn’t be able to make the ticket anyone.

    Regulate CRIMINALS not law abiding gun owners. Democrats are f***tards.
    Take away or guns… then they defund/abolish police. Duh!
    They cry to stop killing the salamanders…then approve govt funding of $400 million to planned parent hood to kill human babies.
    On Sunday they’re praying for peace across our nation…Then Monday they abolish prayer in schools because it offends a few.

    Biden is a puppet

    The Supreme Court has already ruled on the Second amendment. The meaning of the Second Amendment is to enable the citizens of the United States to forcibly take back their government from the tyrannical elected officials. Our founding Fathers knew the issues of world domination by immoral and evil leaders.

    Ask yourself why in the last 244 years of our history and the USA involvement in wars all over the planet did our military always tried to save the lives of children, women and men that were held by governments who wanted the total control of them. Then ask yourself why do we allow the killing of the unborn and born child who is our fellow citizen. And how about the killing of each other over such stupid ideas.
    Why don’t we value OUR LIVES?

    Then ask yourself why would half of the US Citizens want a government that will control everything in their lives? What has happen to the Spirit of America?

    We need to fix our country ! Each and everyone of us need to remember the sacrifices of those early Citizens who worked, died and share their values that life is meaningful, we need our God, we need the Spirit of American Pride . Treat each other with respect. Stop and think, now go read the Story of the Donner Pass and what the American Citizen had to endure. Let us get back to the real history of sacrifice, sorrow and happiness which built everything in OUR GREAT COUNTRY !.

    On this Veterans Day, I encourage everyone to go visit a Military Cemetery or a local Cemetery and read the headstones names and become a witness to those who have paid the ultimate prices for OUR FREEDOMS.

    I have two grandfathers, my Dad, his brother, 6 uncles, and six names of cousins on the Vietnam War Memorial. They all served from WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, and Desert Storm. Some in the Army, Air Force ,Navy, and Marines.

    Please help OUR COUNTRY. We can be the POSITIVE Movement that we need right now. Charlie
