Biden appeals for tougher gun laws: ‘How much more carnage?’

“Enough, enough,” President Joe Biden exclaimed over and over Thursday night, as he delivered an impassioned address to the nation imploring Congress to take action against gun violence after mass shootings he said had turned schools, supermarkets and other everyday places into “killing fields.”

If legislators fail to act, he warned, voters should use their “outrage” to turn it into a central issue in November’s midterm elections.

“How much more carnage are we willing to accept?” Biden asked after last week’s shootings by an 18-year-old gunman, who killed 19 students and two teachers at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, and another attack Wednesday in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where a gunman shot and killed four people and himself at a medical office. “Don’t tell me raising the age won’t make a difference,” he said.

“How much more carnage?” is a threat. They won’t protect our children so they will allow them to keep dying until they get our guns. They are using the children as a sacrifice to get more gun laws.

Perhaps it’s that I’m so old I can recall dozens of events where Democrats said the same inane things that I’ve grown annoyed by them. Or, have they become so monotonous and frequent in their repititions that even young people are being annoyed? I wonder.

All he is going to achieve is increased sales of guns.

The answer isn’t less guns it’s MORE....in the right places in the right hands would put down a lot of this evil without firing a shot.

Gun free zones are nothing more than potential kill zones and they know it. And now brandon wants to make the whole country a gun free zone.....SMH

There’s a reason you rarely hear about robberies in pawn shops or gun stores....the employees normally open carry.

Peace through strength...what a concept.....now, who said that again?

Gun laws going to stop them mass school shootings. Bet.
Note: Chicago has the toughest gun laws in this country and its Mogadishu 2.0. But don’t let that get in the way of the real agenda: to remove or make null-in-void the 2nd Amendment. You know, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed bit.....

My guess is that the government would like to grab all the guns so that we just don’t have any at all — and then the carnage will really begin.

exactly! how much carnage until liberals agree to start executing murderers? how much carnage until liberals want to stop letting people out of jail? how much carnage until liberals agree that gays and trans are mentally ill and they agree to lock them up along with all the other nuts living on our streets?

Thanks for that guide. On social media I’ve seen lots of posts that are all saying the same message: “Nobody wants to take your guns away, but there is no reason why people need AR-15 assault rifles!”

that has been true.. but we are fast approaching a point where that will no longer be the case, when the government can deploy millions of killer drones in swarms that have pin point accuracy, work as a hive mind and always follow orders.

At exactly that point is when the true rulers of the planet will pull the trigger and enslave the rest of us.

I don’t know, Brandon. How many will you kill to push for ripping up the constitution?

Try to take constitutionally held guns and there’ll be a lot more deceased Democrats.

Here is a simple proposal for starting small to see how well new gun restrictions work:

1. No one in the US Secret Service shall possess or have access to an automatic weapon while on duty.
2. No one in the US Secret Service shall possess or have access to a magazine capable of holding more than seven rounds while on duty.
3. No one in the US Secret Service shall possess more than four magazines while on duty.

I doubt Sleepy Joe would sign a bill consisting of or containing those three provisions even though doing so would make 350 million American citizens safer and more secure.
