President Joe Biden on Feb. 14 urged Congress to strengthen existing laws concerning gun ownership on the third anniversary of the mass shooting at a high school in Parkland, Florida.
“The Parkland students and so many other young people across the country who have experienced gun violence are carrying forward the history of the American journey. It is a history written by young people in each generation who challenged prevailing dogma to demand a simple truth: we can do better. And we will,” Biden said in a statement.
“This Administration will not wait for the next mass shooting to heed that call. We will take action to end our epidemic of gun violence and make our schools and communities safer. Today, I am calling on Congress to enact commonsense gun law reforms, including requiring background checks on all gun sales, banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, and eliminating immunity for gun manufacturers who knowingly put weapons of war on our streets.”
In the afternoon of Feb. 14, 2018, a man identified by authorities as Nikolas Cruz, now 22, walked into Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland and opened fire with an AR-15 rifle. The shooting left 17 dead, including 14 students. Cruz, who is currently awaiting trial, could face the death penalty.
After the shooting, a number of Parkland students and parents began agitating for stricter gun control laws, arguing that Cruz shouldn’t have been able to obtain a gun. But others pointed to failures by law enforcement, including safety officer Scot Peterson, who has pleaded not guilty to criminal charges for not entering the school building to confront Cruz, and urged restraint on new measures.

We know the rats want it. The repukes will huff and puff and gobble like turkey neck Mc CONnell, they cave as usual.
The guard in DC are traitors.
For those who think this is just a fad... maybe in 2 years we can change it back... for those who pass this off... lets look at this as it is.
a coup... a take over of a nation.. of a government.... and it was easy.. just plain easy...
why was it that easy?
While you sat at home in the comfort of your abode.. things like fauci was testing the waters....
stay home .. when have to be out, stand 6 ft apart and wear a mask... man.. the last year has been one weird happening..and don’t tell me it was necessary.. it was to gauge how much we would tolerate.. we passed with flying colors.. aren’t we proud!
Since Trump was doing so many things right....the left went off the plantation.. they set out to get the election in whatever it took... get and use machines they could maneuver.... have the media sell a bad dude Trump to the audience and maybe catch each state’s officials to hate him also so we can cheat our way to a coup.. a Trump removal....
Get all the money you can.. and shut the Trump morons down... don’t let them talk and spread the word what we are doing.. Threaten them and take from them till they see it our way..
There is more... you fill in the rest....
But we have to remove biden and place Trump back where he belongs....
STOP EXTREME GUN CONTROL BILL H.R. 127
https://jbs.org/alert/stop-extreme-gun-control-bill-h-r-127/
It creates a national firearm registry that anyone – including every level of law enforcement and the military – can access.
The registry would require one to tell the government exactly where one’s firearms are stored.
One would need a license simply to own a firearm.
Mandatory “psychological evaluations” are required receive this license.
One would need to pay $800 for “firearm insurance.”
It would enact extreme ammunition restrictions, including a ban on magazines more than 10 rounds.
Violating the above provisions could lead to a prison sentence of up to 40 years and a fine of up to $150,000.
Joe plans to do nothing for the US but take things away
I agree it’s time to strengthen gun laws. They can start with national CCW reciprocity now.
I saw a "Social Distancing Zapper" device at a local hardware store.
This looks like something you'd use on a dog, not a fellow human being.
How our society has degraded!
GFY Bite Me.
Joseph Stolen is an idiot
Thanks. Just the name of the bill is unsettling.
“H.R. 127, titled the “Sabika Sheikh Firearm Licensing and Registration Act,” was introduced by Representative Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) at the beginning of the 117th Congress.”
Are you willing to bet the farm on that?
I'm not. I think these clowns are dead serious about taking away our rights.
And I can't imagine them ever quitting until we stop them.
He wants to make sure China can come in and take everything after he gives it to them. Not to mention his illegitimate regime is scared senseless of the American people.
Are we the new China?
FU Biden and the horse you rode in on.
And they won’t vote to impeach him either. We have the constitution on our side. I wrote that without laughing or crying. We know they don’t give a 💩 about that or the BOR.
<< Joe plans to do nothing for the US but take things away >>
Firearms, freedom of speech and association, borders, and private sector blue collar jobs, for starters.
The Eff Bee Eye was warned repeatedly about that scumbag Nikolai Cruz and the worthless jackboots didn’t do a damn thing.
It’s like they wanted the shooting to happen in order to advance the anti-Second Amendment agenda.
Some folks believe the 2nd amendment covers it.
If dems were for this, they’d be out there talking about the times when people saved their lives and others with their guns
They would talk about the 2+ milion times a year a gun thwarts a criminal.
