Biden's offhand comment about "Semiautomatic" firearms seemed just a little too on the nose to me. Lots of folks I know just figured that old senile Joe was trying to refer to the fictional category of "semi-automatic assault weapons", but maybe not.

Perhaps the gun-grabbers have focus group tested the terminology again, and are ready to try another run at banning semi-autos. Or full semi-auto with the shoulder thing that goes up. Or something.

Be ever vigilant! Rust, and gun-grabbers, never sleep.

If the dems had their way, they would outlaw every tool use for personal defense.

The Biden admin has already started to walk this back.

A mish-mash of made up terms like “high-caliber weapons” by people who don’t know what the hell they’re talking about.

According to the constitution we don’t need BiteMe’s permission to own any weapon whatsoever, including crew-served weapons.

The White House already cleaned that one up, said he didn’t mean semis, he meant “assault weapons” which of course is an undefined term.

So, he didn’t mean anything, as usual.

we all know they want to ban all guns. This is one of those times the idiot in the white house let the truth slip out of stupid his drooling mouth. Just like the time he said Obama assembled the biggest voter fraud org in country has ever seen. That group has been stealing elections ever since.

We only lose rights if we comply to tyrants. I don’t care law they pass I’m not complying with any of their crap.

I think its sick Biden surrounds himself with security touting around fully automatic and semi automatic guns. No President or any politicians, needs such inherently lethal and violent protection.

Like most liberals Brandon doesn’t know the difference between semiautomatic and full automatic. But being ignorant about the subject matter never stopped a liberal from pushing legislation anyway.

They can try but they can’t succeed with this perfidious treason.

*** the crowd loudly cheered at the suggestion of banning all “semi-automatic” rifles.***

Between 1962 and 1984 the cry from the anti-gun radicals was “We ONLY want to register and ban HANDGUNS! Rifles will not be affected!”

When they failed to ban handguns, when the 1984 McDonald’s shootings in San Ysidro CA, took place, they immediately jumped on the “Ban semi-auto rifles” bandwagon.
Rest assured that if they can get any ban on a rifle they will be back for their original target, HANDGUNS.

The left side of the family was incredulous when I gently explained that neither the semiautomatic AR nor the AK shoot particularly powerful rounds and that, in fact, the AR was not legal for deer hunting in many states.

They were certain such weapons could easily shoot straight through city buildings and kill people on the other side. I explained it might be possible given the right circumstances but it wasn’t something one could rely on.

FJB.
That dirty Diaper doesn’t even know what day it is. let alone a semi-auto.
Social redeeming value? Let one of their stupid woke POSs break into this house, and they’ll get to witness the “social redeeming value” first hand...guaranteed.

Are you kidding? Mass killings have skyrocketed since the far left perverts took over and a demented old screwball is shacked up in the White House. Right now, AMERICANS NEED A SEMI-AUTOMATIC RIFLE MORE THAN EVER. They need to be able to protect their families and their neighbors. The cops and the military sure as hell aren’t going to do it.
