Biden: We will ban assault weapons, create buy-back program
wnd.com ^ | 8/8/2019 | unknown

Posted on 08/09/2019 4:45:00 AM PDT by rktman

Former Vice President Joe Biden, now running for president, took partial credit for getting “assault weapons” and “high capacity magazines” banned for ten years, in 1994.

And if elected president, he promised to go even further than that by not only banning such weapons but by removing them from their lawful owners.

Biden made the comments at a campaign rally in Iowa on Tuesday.

“American history is not a fairytale,” Biden said, launching into America’s founding and the stain of slavery and the persistence of “racism.”

Later in his speech, Biden blamed Trump for “doing nothing – nothing about the epidemic of guns that is fueling a literal carnage in America.”

Promises to remove firearms from lawful owners if elected

“... as water levels in the Great Lakes rise from the number of guns lost in tragic boating accidents.”

You can have all the “boating accidents” you like, it won’t matter. If you are a conservative law-abiding gun-owner they aren’t coming for your guns, they are coming for you.

Bold MF’r, ain’t he?!

No more covering their intent, no more hiding behind “moderate”, just balls out announcing that they WILL take our lawfully owned guns.

BTW, how can he call people ‘lawful’? Isn’t that like calling people ‘illegal’?

I’ve read your posts.

Shouldn’t be calling people dumb in the first place.

And with YOUR posts, REALLY should’t.

Have a good one.

ciao

Buy backs didn't work in any of the states that tried to implement it. It's not even working in New Zealand. What makes slo joe think Americans are going to surrender their guns to the very people who are threatening us? The media is openly calling for violence against us, politicians too, or else they are making dog whistles for same, and actively or passively supporting the antifa brown shirts. The deep state/media complex is openly hostile to us. I can't think of a better justification for the 2nd Amendment.

So when the buy back compliance proves to be less than 1% what do you think the government is going to do?

From Kim Strassel’s column today:

As for former Vice President Joe Biden, CNN asked him if gun owners should worry that a Biden administration “is going to come for my guns.” He answered: “Bingo. You’re right if you have an assault weapon. The fact of the matter is, they should be illegal, period.”

They banned ALL guns in Mexico. Looks like that is working well for them.

Yes, there were 17,000 murders in Mexico in the first half of this year. Imagine how bad it would be if they had guns.

You can assault someone with ANY type of gun. It doesn’t even have to be loaded. It can even be a toy gun.

Therefore, ALL guns are “assault weapons”.

Biden wants them all to be illegal.

Just remember what happened when the king tried to seize colonists’ arms. American history is not a fairy tale.

That being said, I am not sure they would not be able to actually do it but I don’t think they have the stomach for the carnage that would ensue.

This week’s episode of the “That’s My Biden”, “Joe Goes SJW”.

I see Joe has gotten new writers.

LOL!

That is literally the only thing you can think of.

Not that I’m wrong, just “I think you are a poo poo head”.

Ok, kid.

Buy-backs are confiscation with a consolation “tip.”
