"The idea we still allow semi-automatic weapons to be purchased is sick," Biden said. "Just sick. It has no socially redeeming value. Zero. None. Not a single solitary rationale for it except profit for the gun manufacturers."

A reporter then asked Biden if he would be able to make any movement on new gun laws while Republicans control the House in the next Congress, to which the president said he would make that assessment as he counts votes.

Gee, I wonder then why both he and his friends in DC, Manhattan, and Hollywood are protected by security forces using semi-automatics?

I wish there was someine willing amd able to sue these politicians for violating their oath of office. There swear amd oath to uphold the constitution and the first thing they do in office is violate it. They should be forced from office.

Well, to begin with I’m pretty sure Secret Service is equipped with fully automatic weapons. But to answer your question, their lives are clearly more important than yours.

”Not a single solitary rationale for it except profit for the gun manufacturers."

Is it possible that they’re selling a product that people want? The basics of capitalism may be escaping Slow Joe.

Disarm the IRS, Brandon. Actually, shutter the IRS and replace the tax code with a flat consumption tax. I want to see as many lazy ass, American hating government employees unemployed and have only one recourse to make it in life: get a real jobs in the private sector, making something of tangible value.

Just watch them keep “moving the goalposts” on this or any issue. Slippery slope is getting steeper. Fools!

The liberal response is that the elite are more likely to require protection and their security forces are highly trained.
