Just miles from the site of the Newtown school massacre, Vice President Joe Biden warned Thursday that US politicians would pay a price if they refuse to back measures to stem gun violence.
Biden said in Danbury, Connecticut that there had been a change in American politics which made it less risky for lawmakers to back the kind of legislation the White House is pushing Congress to pass.
"What I say to my colleagues who will watch this and listen to this, I say to you if you're concerned about your political survival, you should be concerned about the survival of our children," Biden said.
"And guess what? I believe the price to be paid politically will be to those who refuse to act, who refuse to step forward, because America has changed on this issue," Biden said.
"You should all know the American people are with us. You should all know there's a moral price to be paid for inaction," Biden said, around 10 miles (16 kilometers) from Newtown.

Biden openly calls on lawmakers to ignore the citizens who elected them.
More importantly, Biteme has called on lawmakers to ignore or abandon the Constitution.
Biden might have our lawmakers by the family jewels.
But he does not own me and mine. If the lawmaker I helped send to congress fails the constitution, his jewels need not fear Biden.........
This can be a good thing - listen to slo-joe and find a new job after the next election. This will be the 94 election all over again - a good thing for the country. Thanks for the help plugs...
Joey forgets that in recent years it’s the anti-gun pols that have been paying the price at the polls, at least in normal America.
Slow Joe. Try to keep up, Joe.
"...where's Joe?..oh, he heard the ice cream truck...."
What does Gun Control have to do with “stemming gun violence”?
Violent people use whatever tools they can get their hands on to commit their crimes. The only defense against them is an equal or greater use of force using whatever tool is required to deter the Criminal.
Remember what Odumbo said to his Supporters regarding his Political opponents, “they bring a knife, you bring a gun”.
Biden is 180 out and everybody knows it; even slow Joe.
A moral price? What the heck is that? Do these people ever listen to themselves?
Hey Biden, why don’t you meet me on the green in front of The Armory in Old New Castle so I can hear your demands or dictates?
Careful now, if his protection squad doesn’t come along he might bring a double barreled shotgun. He advises in that regard to his poor wife. [Can you imagine the hell of being married to a total idiot like him? Poor lady should reach sainthood ...]
biden went on to say he would “drone-kill” the asses of those politicians who he could not coere by threats into unconstitutionally infringing on the second amendment.
Joe was flying ‘Government Airlines’ one day and decided he wanted to fly the plane.
Over the pilot’s objections he slides into the co-pilot’s seat. “I want to land this baby!” so he pushed the wheel forward.
At the last minute the pilot wrested control of the aircraft and manages to land safely.
“Nobody hurt!” says the ‘tard. “Man, but that runway was short. And wide!”
The Ruling Class thinks they can subvert the citizen’s right to self protection. More and more Americans are getting the picture of the Ruling Class as power hungry narcissists. It is only when that Americans will have reached the tipping point with them. When Obamacare hits in 2014 may be that time.
Hmmmm, So anyoen who upholds the constitution is goign to ‘pay the price’? Is that what this regime has coem to?
It is good for our side every time Crazy Joe opens his mouth. His spouts such stupid nonsense that even the Marxists blush. His recent rant about getting a shot gun instead of an AR-15 shows that, not only is he completely ignorant about firearms, his advice to his wife is criminally negligent also. In a just society, Biden would have been declared the village idiot and assigned some menial tasks like cleaning porta-potties at a county park just to give him something useful to do.
A call for national prayer and repentance. Protection for the unborn. Support for two (opposite gendered)parent families. Finally realizining that pornogrophy is not a first ammendment issue. Allowing prayer in schools.
There of lots of non legislative measures to pursue.
Why do the cowardly Democrats always punish the innocent? What are they proposing to keep guns out of hands of criminals? Or, is it too easy, to take away the guns of law abiding taxpayers? And then pretend that the "problem" is solved?
I pray that Joe Biden and his Democrat colleagues are given the ability to connect the dots, and take responsible actions to keep guns away from criminals, while respecting the second amendment.
