<< “We’ve done it before. I did it when we passed the crime bill last time. And violence went down.” >>

More lying from the Lyin King. Even the entry on the ‘94 AWB in leftist-run Wikipedia noted that the ban had no effect on violence.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Assault_Weapons_Ban

Last paragraph of first section: < Studies have shown the ban had little effect on overall criminal activity, firearm homicides, and the lethality of gun crimes. >

by assault they mean ‘weapons of war’ - they have been trying to get them banned claiming that they are weapons of war- which they are not-

An assault rifle is a fully auto rifle- dianne fienstein and ilk have tried to redefine it to include any semi auto with certain features-

We’ve done it before.

Yep. The Clinton era assault weapons ban was in place during Columbine. You seem to have forgotten how that worked out, Joe.

Lets ban Adult Diapers so Joey can Crap down his leg into his shoe. He spews it, so he may as well walk though it.

When will the public understand that using the term Assault Weapon is a red herring to distract you and paint he idea of a villain as an indescribable ever changing construct.
Since liberals use the term assault weapon to describe about everything they are not.
Then to spout that are the ultimate expert on something they know nothing about.
So the real question is this on purpose or are that ignorant.

“... but they let a number get through, likely for political reasons, and we end up with tragic situations...”

And they exploit the race, class, gender aspect of every incident. It’s a never-ending cycle, and we get hosed each time.

Do yourself a favor, don’t listen to this addled piece of garbage. I stopped. My BP is down 20-30 points.

Remember this: Whatever comes off the Teleprompter is NOT “Joe” but the #JihadJunta who relish in exploiting the deaths of innocents for political gain. It is the most despicable thing a human being can do in the realm of public discourse. But the snideness of this speech, and the reaction of all of “Joe’s” sycophants, is detestable.

Not surprising. The Demoncrats just want to make it impossible for guns to sneak out of the house and kill people. When they finish destroying the Middle Class through taxes and supporting millions of illegals and take all assault weapons (Any semi-automatic weapon) from law abiding citizens then everyone will see their true motive: A one party Socialist Democratic State.

Chapman defined assault weapons as follows: any rifle larger than 22 cal capable of semiautomatic fire, and with a detachable magazine. Thank goodness he was canned, but this is the ‘prevailing wisdom’ among the Feds.

I don’t have a big enough barf bucket to watch this speech. But if anyone did, did Chomo Joe even mention any one of the victims?

Biden’s going to destroy the first and second amendments because an 18 year old monster killed ten people? Or is it because the 18 year old monster was white?

More than ten people are murdered every month in Chicago...why don’t those people and those monsters matter?

More people were killed and wounded in Kenosha, WI

Oh wait, Biden’s goons are pitting racial groups against each other... to destabilize the country? To harvest more voters off the rage. Hey, there were willing to take down the integrity and trust in the supreme court for the PA run off elections... What jerks.
