In a recent interview with NPR on gun control proposals, vice president Joe Biden assiduously avoided the real reason for the Second Amendment: its not about hunting Joe! Its about defense against a tyrannical government.
But in his carefully rehearsed remarks, Mr. Biden let slip the real reason he and other statist politicians want to continue to infringe on our right to bear arms, including an admittedly unpopular ban on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines: government entities dont want to be outgunned!
Hear him say it for yourself: The people I go to, to look to, when we talk about assault weapons and magazines; talk to the police officers. They are tired of being outgunned. They are tired of being outgunned.

Mr. Biden, the people who are already "outgunning" the police are not the ones who are worried about a silly little gun ban.
Here's the NPR interview: http://www.npr.org/2013/03/20/174880882/interview-with-vice-president-joe-biden
Then get a shotgun, Stupid Joe.
Too bad Joe, if they don’t like it, relocate to Britain where they have severe gun bans. That’s not happening here in the US. We outgun the Government for a reason, the fact that you and Obama hate it is just Treasonous.
Take the hint, stop trying to ban guns.
Dear Joe:
“It’s the economy, stupid!”
I got a door and a balcony for you Joe!
Any police officer in this country who claims to be 'outgunned' by the private citizens thereof is a liar.
Hand out boxes of pens.
So the police are being “outgunned” by criminals. That suggests strongly to me that the time and other resources of the political establishment should be focused on the possession and use of firearms by the criminal class instead of the possession and use of firearms by the peaceful, law abiding citizenry.
This attitude, I know, disqualifies me for service as as Democrat legislator.
Perhaps the gov’t should try vomiting and urinating on themselves. Its worth a try.
Joe, “outgunned” doesn’t mean just the weapons. Some citizens actually know how to shoot effectively.
Even better, the gov't should advise their opponents that they should be given some slack because it's that time of month, again.
Grab some scissors and wait for them to reload!
Hell yes!
These politicians ought to have more semi automatic and fully automatic assault pens than anyone else on earth!
Not to mention high capacity ink cartridges.
I bet they have scissors too, one without rounded points and plastic handles.
The heck is Stupid Joe even whining about...sheesh!
The government just bought a few billion rounds of ammo and 2700 armored vehicles. How outgunned to they think they are?
Oh man, They are going to ban Pop Tarts for kids.
Fantastic observation. And Crazy Joe can give up his armed security in exchange for a whistle a few call boxes along his route.
A virtuous government has little to fear from its citizens.
Man, this is great!
Biden is the gift that keeps on giving.
Now that it’s out in the open, it is indeed an “arms race” between the government and the citizens.
Now, Joe, answer me this - what do you intend to do that is so egregious that the government has to “outgun” the citizenry in order to impose it on them?
