Joe Biden Reiterates Plan to Ban ‘Assault Weapons,’ ‘High Capacity’ Magazines
Breitbart ^ | 1 Nov 2020 | AWR HAWKINS

Posted on 11/01/2020 4:19:58 PM PST by Mr. Mojo

Former Vice President Joe Biden doubled down on his calls to ban “assault weapons” and “high capacity” magazines and to institute other gun controls on the final Sunday of his 2020 presidential campaign.

Biden’s campaign wrote on his officialvTwitter account: “As president, I’ll ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, implement universal background checks, and enact other common-sense reforms to end our gun violence epidemic.”

Breitbart News reported that Biden’s proposals not only contain a ban on the future manufacture of AR-15s and other firearms the Democrats label “assault weapons” but also a provision that could require every AR-15 rifle to be registered under the National Firearms Act of 1934 (NFA). Unless there was some form of carve-out, this could mandate that American gun owners pay a $200 federal tax for each AR-15 that they own.

Other gun proposals being pushed by Biden include:

- A provision that could ban online sales of ammunition, guns, and gun parts.

-A pledge to revive the Social Security gun ban, which targeted benefit recipients who needed help managing their finances. The ban was adopted during the last full month of the Obama presidency and repealed during the first full month of the Trump presidency.

- A provision that would limit Americans a one-gun-a-month purchase maximum. The Biden campaign website says, “Biden supports legislation restricting the number of firearms an individual may purchase per month to one.”

- A push to incentivize states to license would-be gun owners. Biden’s campaign website says, “Biden will enact legislation to give states and local governments grants to require individuals to obtain a license prior to purchasing a gun.”

Why limit it to one a month. Wouldn’t one a year be better. Or how about one per decade?

The Democrats always seem to be against something. Always has to be a boogie man...racism for example. They’re very controlling scoundrels. As long as it infringes on the rights of others, and makes good citizens more vulnerable to their violent swarms of lunatics, they’re all for it.

We need national constitutional carry and national reciprocity. Why should our 2nd amendment be limited any more than the 1st or others? Maybe Trump republicans and another several justices over the next four years can make this a reality.

Texans ran the Biden bus out of the state just for fun. Imagine if they try this in the American red states, especially Texas.

49% of the People will note for him. Who is my true enemy, the power hungry fool or his power base. I say it’s the 49% that support his crazy shit. It’s time Ofer either a national divorce or a national conflict.

Hey mr Biden! We already have plenty of reason to vote against you. You needn’t hurl more bullsheit or threats up at us from your basement.

I say BAN is an acronym for:

Bear

Normally

... or ...

Use your creative juices.

He doesn’t care what voters think because the fix is in. That’s why he didn’t campaign. He thinks it’s all a done deal.
