Joe Biden: Continued Sale of ‘Semiautomatic Weapons Is Bizarre’
Breitbart ^ | 09/19/2022 | AWR HAWKINS

Posted on 09/20/2022 6:02:24 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

During the September 18 airing of CBS News’s 60 Minutes, President Joe Biden described the continued sale of semiautomatic weapons as “bizarre.”

Scott Pelley conducted a wide-ranging interview with Biden, but when it turned to guns and gun policy, Biden pledged once again to ban “assault weapons.”

Biden suggested that “there is no rationale” for owning firearms like AR-15s, AK-47s, etc.

He talked of visiting Uvalde, Texas, after the May 24, 2022, school shooting, saying he not only visited there but “every one of those places.”

Biden observed, “The NRA continuing to push the sale of assault and semiautomatic weapons is bizarre.

The semi automatic/assault arguement is a red herring. This issue, which should have the band aid ripped off, is do the people of the United States as acknowledged by the Second Amendment, have the right to keep and bear arms for defense of themselves and against enemies foreign and domestic. That is a yes or no question, and should be a litmus test imho.

Given Biden's Philadelphia speech, I think we know the answer.

OBAMA, WHO NEVER QUITS, SPEAKING THROUGH Joe Biden: Continued Sale of ‘Semiautomatic Weapons Is Bizarre’

Why is it OK for the FBI to illegally raid private home using semi-automatic weapons but it's "bizarre" for private citizens to have them?

To the degree the feds continue to violate the Constitution and our rightful freedoms, to that degree it is absolutely reasonable for citizens to arm themselves with semi-automatic weapons.

A rogue government requires a well-armed citizenry.

Yep. Citizens should be able to own anything law enforcement does without question.

Biden was always a grifter, a low IQ mouthy opportunist, a liar, and a plagiarist. Nothing he says can be taken at face value because he is not qualified to say them. A proven liar can never be trusted.

Not as bizarre as having an empty shell of a man as president (who won by getting 81 million votes BTW).

Semi Auto and Full auto..this is well OVER 100 year old technology.

Arguably almost 400 years - "The Kalthoff repeater was a type of repeating firearm that was designed by members of the Kalthoff family around 1630..."

There’s no rationale for Brandon being POTUS but yet here we are, truly bizarre on the most grand scale.

He probably did get 81 million votes.
Unfortunately, about 20 million of them came from an eager, over zealous voter named Dominion.

That right there is sufficient reason for owning such firearms ... and more. The AR15 selector switch should have three functional positions. For example.

Obama who is relentless about taking down America, is pulling Biden’s strings.

This is effectively Obama’s third term.

Not sure what you’re saying by replacing “MAGA Republicans” with “Jews”. Please explain.

I would rather have the guns in abundance than so-called “progressives”.

In the 1930s, the blood libel myth still circulated in Europe. This was exploited by a certain Bavarian corporal to focus people's hatred on a segment of the population. Scape goating is another term for it. I could have put "Slavs" or "gypsies" in there as well.

It resulted in the extermination of 13 million people.

One of the earlier initiatives of the Nazis was to deny the ability of Jews to own firearms. Makes it easier to "handle" your target population.

That Philadelphia speech could have been lifted right out of the Goebbels playbook.

There are other historical examples of marginalizing and objectifying a segment of society for power (Kulaks in the Soviet Union, "educated" in Red China, etc.), but Germany of the 30s and 40s is the most prominent example. The results are inevitably the same.

If two criminals are intent on invading my home, a single shot defensive weapon probably will not be sufficient.

Police officers for decades carried and used six-shot .38 revolvers. They needed to be able to shoot off more than one round.
