More bad firearm advice from Joe Biden – Shoot through a door

More bad firearm advice from Joe Biden – Shoot through a door Posted by Steve McGough on February 28, 2013

Actually, this could be criminal. If someone told you it was perfectly acceptable to fire a round through a door at a target you had not identified, how do you think that would go over?

More Vice President Joe Biden advice on self-defense strategies. First it was warning shots for the heck of it, and now we have the guy suggesting this? While on the discussion of modern sport rifles…

F&S: What about the other uses, for self-defense and target practice?

V.P. BIDEN: Well, the way in which we measure it is—I think most scholars would say—is that as long as you have a weapon sufficient to be able to provide your self-defense. I did one of these town-hall meetings on the Internet and one guy said, “Well, what happens when the end days come? What happens when there’s the earthquake? I live in California, and I have to protect myself.”

I said, “Well, you know, my shotgun will do better for you than your AR-15, because you want to keep someone away from your house, just fire the shotgun through the door.” Most people can handle a shotgun a hell of a lot better than they can a semiautomatic weapon in terms of both their aim and in terms of their ability to deter people coming. We can argue whether that’s true or not, but it is no argument that, for example, a shotgun could do the same job of protecting you. Now, granted, you can come back and say, “Well, a machine gun could do a better job of protecting me.” No one’s arguing we should make machine guns legal.

Is Joe too old to go through the Eddie the Eagle program?

If Joe Blow at the Podunk Rod and Gun Club said crap like this with a straight face, his membership would be put up for review or he’d be shunned out of the club.

This man is appallingly stupid.

Ignoring all of Joe’s bad advice....exactly why would our world be safer with less AR-15’s and more shotguns?

Would Adam Lanza have done less damage/killing with a shotgun? No.

922(o) has got to go. Efforts are underway.

They would have to run a warning at the start but image all the great advice.

If someone really wanted a person dead, they'd use a shot gun. It's hard to miss the target, and the hole left behind would unrepairable. All it would take is one shot as opposed to 6 "little" random shouts from an "assault" weapon.

One day I was discussing Washington politics with two local acquaintances. One man said he sometimes suspected Biden was a comic genius in the genre of Andy Kaufman. That the public Biden was a contrived character like Kaufman's “Tony Clifton.” The other man laughed at the idea. He said Biden’s behavior had a simpler explanation. “The guy is crazier than one of those beetles that rolls pig sh*t into little balls.”

Now there’s one gun control law I’d support: Joe cannot own, possess or be within 100 feet of any type of gun.

Just got this visual of 0bama shooting his once-used skeet gun through a door, with Joe standing on the other side.

Shooting at unseen targets is very effective, not to mention exciting.

LOL.

Feeling intimidated? Is there someone standing behind your door? Just open fire. Joe's got your back.

:-)

But maybe the industry couldn’t handle it now, what with being backlogged for years with “assault weapon” orders.
