Biden calls 9mm ‘high-caliber weapons,’ suggests banning them
Fox News ^ | 5/30/2022 | Bradford Betz

President Biden on Monday took aim at 9mm handguns, appearing to suggest that the "high-caliber weapons" ought to be banned.

The president made the remarks outside the White House after returning from a visit to the site of a mass shooting in Texas where 21 people, including 19 elementary school children, were killed last week.

Recounting a visit to a New York trauma hospital, Biden said doctors showed him X-rays of gunshot wounds.

"They said a .22-caliber bullet will lodge in the lung, and we can probably get it out — may be able to get it and save the life. A 9mm bullet blows the lung out of the body," Biden said.

"So, the idea of these high-caliber weapons is, uh, there’s simply no rational basis for it in terms of self-protection, hunting," Biden added. "Remember, the constitution was never absolute."

Just in case you thought that Biden, or indeed ANY antigunner, would be satisfied with any gun control that is passed.

All they want is 100% ban on every single 9mm (and presumably any other caliber) round in existance.

This is what they call "Common Sense, Reasonable Gun Control".

incredible, he wants to ban 9mm? I suppose it’s an excuse to get a 44 mag.

Why not just ban communism and crimminals, two major reasons to NEED a gun?

The condition is panic.

Biden has finally realized his and the party election doom.

The Biden reaction is panic words for the press that have no meaning

What about a double barrel shotgun? That’s a wee bit more caliber than a 9mm

Brandon would have no trouble giving up his SS protection, right? No guns...

Or, maybe I’m wrong? Crossbows for everyone.

5.56mm

A 9mm bullet blows the lung out of the body??? Where did Demented Joe come up with that one?

Democrat voters are to blame. We need to disenfranchise them—all of them.

Only a few weeks ago, Biden and the left were praising those Ukrainian gun-toting grannies and beauty queens who picked up military-grade weapons to fight the Russians. Now, they want to prevent Americans from having similar weapons and even ones of much lower caliber.

This is further proof that the left are such avid supporters of the Ukrainian cause not because they support American-style liberties, but because a Ukrainian victory will put the Ukraine into the camp of the totalitarian globalists. Then, those brave grannies will no longer be allowed to have those weapons.

Given Trudeau’s action in Canada, this is being coordinated. And given Trudeau’s ties to the WEF, its not a stretch to think from where.

Funny how his handlers aren’t rushing in to “clarify” this claim.

Apparently so.

Fortunately, nobody has ever been killed by a .22. 🙄🙄🙄
