Biden: "Fire Two Blasts Outside the Door-Buy a Shotgun...Buy a Double Barrel Shotgun!"
Posted on 03/10/2020 7:35:30 PM PDT by karpov
Former Vice President Joe Biden, the leading contender for the Democratic presidential nomination, today got into a heated argument with a Detroit autoworker who challenged his support for a new federal "assault weapon" ban. Even leaving aside Biden's reference to an "AR-14" when he meant "AR-15," the conversation revealed both the illogic of his proposal and the suspicions it understandably arouses among many gun owners.
Cellphone video of the encounter shows a bearded man in a hard hat accusing Biden of "actively trying to end our Second Amendment right and take away our guns." Biden denied the charge. "You're full of shit," he said. "I support the Second Amendment. The Second Amendment, just like now, if you yelled fire, that's not free speech…I have a shotgun. I have a 12-gauge, a 20-gauge. My sons hunt….I'm not taking your gun away at all."
It is true that Biden's proposal—like the 1994 federal "assault weapon" ban, which expired in 2004—does not include confiscation of guns Americans already own. Instead he would give owners of the targeted firearms a choice: They could sell their guns to the federal government, or they could register them under the National Firearms Act (NFA), following the same procedure, including a background check and a $200 tax, that applies to machine guns. Unlike former presidential candidate Beto O'Rourke, Biden is not threatening to "take your AR-15."
But state requirements for registration of "assault weapons" have been honored mostly in the breach, and Biden's plan is likely to be even less successful now that talk of confiscation is in the air. When the government does not know who owns the guns it decides to ban, it can neither force people to register them nor seize them.

Biden is like trying to clean your windshield with a used Kleenex. It doesn’t work.
Joe has Tourette’s but says some pretty funny sh!t.
Expect Trump to eventually be ridiculed for picking on the handicapped
Biden and his son should both be red-flagged.
Give em a taste of their own shite.
Lol! Derp!
Hmm... Wonder what would happen if one shouted Coronavirus! at a Biden rally.
The DNC has to be seriously considering the running mate choice. That person should reasonably exude competence.
But, they’ll probably go with the WOKE choice, and designate a minority female, regardless of credentials.
Well if he’s not taking your gun away, i guess you can keep it.

Biden: "Fire Two Blasts Outside the Door-Buy a Shotgun...Buy a Double Barrel Shotgun!"
From 1962 through 1988, the cry of the democrats was..
“We don’t want to take your guns away, we ONLY want to register handguns! Rifles will not be affected!”
Within ten years they were calling for bans on all handguns. “Rifles will not be affected!”
1981...Actress Lee Grant on Good Morning America shouts and pokes holes in the air ...”THE NRA IS A RIFLE ORGANIZATION! THEY SHOULD TURN IN THEIR HANDGUNS AND THEY CAN KEEP THEIR RIFLES!”
In 1984, seeing they could get no where on a handgun ban, they made a grab for the rifles, and missed.
Gun owners should realize that every time they negotiate with the anti-gun crowd they are up against a stacked deck. If they ever get any type of a firearm ban, they will use that to build on to ban others, and you can bet they will return for the handguns, their original target.
LOL...”fire two blasts”!
Picking on The
Handicapped,
Poor Quid Pro Joe.
I think Jill Biden has more ability as she is the one who physically stopped the vegans from storming the podium while Joe just stood there looking dumber than a post.
Hahaha...even a Corn Pop reference!
I have never seen that. Thanks for sharing it!
LOL!!
