Joe Biden: Banning Assault Weapons Works (As president, I will push to ban)
NYT ^ | Aug. 11, 2019 | Joe Biden

Posted on 08/11/2019 3:43:42 PM PDT by yesthatjallen

Each time a mass shooting strikes one of our communities we grieve. We gather our loved ones. We reach for answers and clamor for action. Each time, for a moment, it feels like this time will be different.

But then the news cycle rolls on. And we push down the gut-churning knowledge that it will be only a matter of time before it happens again. Between El Paso and Dayton only about 13 hours elapsed.

Republican leaders try to prevent action and parrot N.R.A. messaging — as Donald Trump did last week when he said, “Mental illness and hatred pulls the trigger, not the gun.”

Is that where he said, “Get a double barrel shotgun...Just shoot through the door...”

But he never decided which way to point which end of the shotgun. He gets confused.

Ask him what we should do if he bans the shotguns. Maybe use a Samurai sword?

No, it's from VP Biden's address to the US Conference of Mayors in Jan 2013. Go to the 21:15 mark; he's imitating a 78-yr old woman who allegedly showed Joe how to "steady aim" a shotgun.

If you listen to this speech by Biden, it's amazing how far left he has moved. In parts of this speech, he's sounding fairly normal.

This is what Democrats think is Presidential? Really? God help us all if this tool ever gets elected because then you have to wonder who the hell will be running the country. Obviously not this pathetic old tool.

I stand corrected (see post before mine). The “through the door” interview was not pantomimed

Leftists want to make crimina!s out of their enemies. Never give in, folks. They hate you and want you dead. Step one is to disarm you anyway they can.

They’re NOT “weapons of war,” Plugs....they are semi-automatic rifles, intended for the civilian market.

The FBI’s own statistics show that more people are killed with hammers every year than are killed with semi-automatic rifles.

More people are killed with hands and fists than are killed by semi-automatic rifles.

More people are killed with feet than are killed with semi-automatic rifles.

So just keep babbling like a fool, Joe the groper.

Well, I don’t drink and I don’t smoke rope anymore (or so little of either that it doesn’t count) but I have a lot of calibers and a couple of gauges so I can still get loaded in multiple ways. :)
