President Biden on Tuesday called on Congress to ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines and to close loopholes in the background check system after a gunman killed 10 people at a grocery store in Boulder, Colo.

“I don’t need to wait another minute let alone an hour to take common sense steps that will save lives in the future and to urge my colleagues in the House and Senate to act,” Biden said in remarks at the White House Tuesday afternoon.

Biden called on the Senate to “immediately pass” two House-passed bills that would expand background checks for firearm sales.

“This isn’t and should not be a partisan issue, this is an American issue. It will save lives,” Biden said.

Pass the law.

You just wait.

What religion did the shooter adhere to? Or, are we not supposed to ask?

Well, Joe, Dr. Jill said you need to wait another minute before she changes your Depends.

Hey, you’re gonna violate the Constitution, why not pass a Muslim ban?

What weapon was used?

What type of magazines did he have?

How much ammo did he have?

What loopholes did he exploit?

Inquiring minds would like to know. I’m thinking that with all the talking heads I saw in Boulder, I’m confident they’re all Dems. If an AR/AK was used we’d know it.

Predictably, when the killer is a Muslim or Muslim sympathizer, the emphasis is on the weapons, not the motive. But when the killer is a white man, the emphasis is on the motive.

Never let a good crisis go to waste. Move quick before the jihad truth comes to light.

Shooter had a record I believe I just heard from America one reporter. 3rd degree assault. If he got the gun illegally his little ban won’t stop this.

Complete bullshite. Did not help in 1994, and won't help now. In fact, now it might trigger a bloody civil war. When the 1994 ban went into place, MILLIONS of Americans said, "Now why are they banning those rifles? It makes me want one now." Now, they are America's most popular rifle.

My state won't comply, my county won't comply, I won't comply.

Biden:

“We need to ban guns so that when the ISIS muzzie nutcase decides to shoot you in your grocery store, only the government can protect you.”

No thanks.

Man I hate to jump off the conspiracy cliff, but seems awful coincidental these two shootings happened so close together and both were absolute nutcases.

Did someone pump these two morons up? Was there someone behind the scenes encouraging them?

We aren’t allowed to talk about his being a Muslim. It violates political correctness to imply he’s some sort of jihadist.

Yep. Denigrate 10s of millions of law abiding gun owners. That’s the ticket. I really don’t like these people. Let’s see. Die from CV-19 or mass shooting(?). Worse chances for the CV-19. But they ain’t trying to ban CV-19.
