Biden Reveals His True Goal: To Ban Most Guns
Real Clear Politics ^ | July 29, 2021 | John R Lott Jr

Posted on 07/29/2021 4:27:47 PM PDT by richardb72

If there was any doubt that President Biden wants to ban the vast majority of guns in the United States, he again clarified his position last week. “The idea you need a weapon that can have the ability to fire 20, 30, 40, 50, 120 shots from that weapon — whether it’s a — whether it’s a 9-millimeter pistol or whether it’s a rifle — is ridiculous,” Biden said at a televised CNN townhall meeting. “I’m continuing to push to eliminate the sale of those things, but I’m not likely to get that done in the near term.”

The president’s gun control proposals will make guns so expensive and difficult to obtain that only the extremely wealthy will be able to afford to own one legally. While the news media assures Americans that Biden just wants “reasonable” regulations, Biden made the scope of his true ambitions clear during the campaign. At a high-dollar private fundraiser in Seattle in 2019 he said: “Why should we allow people to have military-style weapons, including pistols with 9-mm bullets and can hold 10 or more rounds?”

When Republicans pointed out that this goal was tantamount to banning most modern handguns, liberal PolitiFact quickly came to Biden’s defense. PolitiFact quickly came to Biden’s defense. The fact-checking site did so again last week. “The most popular handguns would face no restrictions under Biden’s policies,” wrote PolitiFact senior correspondent Jon Greenberg. The basis of this conclusion, Greenberg wrote, is that the popular Sig Sauer P365 cannot accommodate more than 10 or 15 rounds. This is untrue. Although that is how the pistol comes...

In Caetano v Massachusetts SCOTUS ruled,9-0,that weapons of all sorts are covered/included/protected under the 2nd Amendment despite Massachusetts claiming otherwise.

Elections have consequences. Millions of gun owners gotta get up off the couch and vote for pro-2A candidates.

Banning guns at a time like this, with all that is happening on our Southern border ITS AS IF JOE BIDEN AND SPEAKER PELOSI ARE BANGING POTS & PANS TOGETHER TO KEEP YOUR OUTRAGE ON MASKS AND NOT THE INVASION THAT IS HAPPENING ON OUR SOUTHERN BORDER WITH MEXICO!

Sexual abuse of women and children, Drug Cartels are having a hey-day with our open borders and the Capitol Police have been ordered by the Speaker to arrest anyone who isn't w-e-a-r-i-n-g- A m-a-s-k!

UNBELIEVABLE

Start with the door to door vax interrogations, end with the D-2-D gun confiscations.

Marxist rabble burned the country for seven months and everyone kept their head down waiting for it to pass.

There ain’t going to be an uprising.

Biden should be investigated for ownership of gun manufacturer, ammo manufacturer, and gun-accessory manufacturer stocks.

Joe Biden doesn’t have any true goals. He doesn’t have any original thoughts. He doesn’t even take a dump without instructions from the “Central Committee” - a cabal consisting of Obama, Rice, Holder, and Lynch.

They must certainly be so grateful they can pull the strings on the guy who once said: “Obama is “the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean”

IMHO, at least 1/2 of gun owners will obey and turn them in...

This current run of government and companies falling in line with the mask & vaccine mandate threats of job loss or travel privilege loss is just practice for when the gun confiscation orders go out...

If you own gun(s) you will earn;

Of course these are just the low-hanging fruit...
Our communist masters will certainly find many, many more draconian methods to force compliance...

Beware of defeatists.

These are people that have already surrendered and now work against us. They do so because they want affirmation that they are right. They could not endure the embarrassment of being wrong.
The defeatists show themselves by attacking efforts to win elections.
