When the amendment was approved, he said, “You couldn’t own a cannon. You couldn’t own certain kinds of weapons. There’s always been limitations.”

Biden was speaking at the White House before signing an executive order on policing on the second anniversary of George Floyd’s death.

He that he would visit Texas with first lady Jill Biden in the coming days to “hopefully bring some little comfort to the community.”

“As a nation, I think we must all be there for them,” he said. “And we must ask, when it god’s name will we do what’s needed to be done.”

We need a new amendment giving people the right to carry self defense weapons and taking away the “right” to carry military weapons.

So according to Biden the 2nd amendment is not absolute, but the imaginary right to murder babies up until the moment of birth is absolute. What a weird world.

Whenever they want to appeal to people who believe in the Christian concept of deity, his speech includes a reference to “God”.

There was always gun control. The shootout at the ok corral was to enforce and ordinance in Tombstone that no one but law enforcement was allowed to carry a firearm within the town.

Decrepit Joe is a disgusting liar.

This is a lie that Decrepit Joe has been repeating for years.

Gun laws only take guns out of the hands of law abiding citizens who then have no protection from the criminals. Criminals will continue to get their guns illegally
