John Kerry endorsed Democrat presidential hopeful Joe Biden on Saturday, praising him for being willing to do something about an “AR-16 with a long clip.”
He was speaking at a Biden campaign event in North Liberty, Iowa.
Kerry began by addressing the “courage” Biden showed in pushing gun control as an elected official from Delaware. ….
Kerry said, “You heard from Joe about the things he did with the NRA, that took courage, Delaware’s a tough state. (emphasis mine) I’m a hunter, I’m a gun owner, been that all my life.” But he stressed he is the last person who would “take an AR-16 with a long clip out to go out and shoot a deer or to shoot anything. But now we have a crowd that was willing to bring them back, and we saw what happened in Las Vegas and other places.”

That’s the one!
Hard to know which he’s more ignorant about - guns, or Climate Science.
He once complained to a Washington Post executive that the newspaper had published a satellite photo of the Earth ‘upside down’ - which certainly makes him someone from whom I’d want to take scientific advice.../s.
(There is some controversy as to whether this photo was even taken in Viet Nam.)
ArR15s don’t have long clips. Thirty round mags are standard fare.
Three months in ‘Nam.
Three Purple Hearts.

That’s like bleeding once per month, isn’t it?

I’m a Hunter, like Hunter Biden, don’t you know.
There used to be a person here whose screen name was ‘Suck my AR-16’. Think he got banned several years ago.
I have a Saiga that is safe. It only holds 20 .410 shells.
As Bob Dole once said, Kerry never spent a day in the hospital as a result of those purple hearts.
YEP. NONE of his 3 PHs were deserved according to his shipmates.
(ONE of them was for a wood SPLINTER in his hand, according to an EM who was present.)

Ouch, I never saw this pic.
Is it really the genius Al Gore, who by the way invented the internet? I bet he’s not too happy about it (the internet) now.
The most dangerous weapon of all time is the liberal.
And that fool served?
He’s not too keen on guns, but
he is correct in his time frame
of recollection. Not many AR-16’s
have been manufactured since the
60’s.
Oh yes, I remember it circulating here back in the day.
Thank god he didn’t mention the infamous, sinister, and thoroughly evil Belt-Fed AR-17 [gasp... the horror... the horror...]...
You know, the one with backpack FULL of clips... that was built to shoot down helicopters and space satellites with the same bullet... /s
And as we all know, the Mini-nukes and sharkpedos use the same launcher attachment that can be mounted on the AR16 and even the AR17.
The sound of the lengthy discharge of the long-clipped AR-16 is SEARED into his memory, the consequence of a firefight on Christmas 1968, when Nixon was President. Biden remembers choppering Kerry out of danger aboard his vice-presidential helicopter, I'm sure.

Wish I’d picked up a couple of those when they were going for $150.
