The same lies and misconceptions that Joe Biden’s people are trotting out to support a radical gun control agenda were weaponized to stigmatize this state as we decided to allow ordinary citizens to apply for a permit and exercise their Second Amendment right to bear arms for their personal defense....The problem for Joe Biden is that the arguments popular around the time of his first run for president 32 years ago have since been conclusively disproved....Undeterred, Biden is using the same basic misunderstandings about public safety to push a plan that would ban most of the most popular rifles in the United States, eventually mandating a ban on all weapons that are not “smart guns” — a fantasy technology that for all intents and purposes does not even exist....In addition to banning millions of popular firearms and all standard-capacity magazines, Biden wants to prohibit Americans from ordering parts or ammunition online or having a gun shipped to a local gun store — effectively putting every online firearms business in the country out of business without the slightest public safety rationale....Biden’s draconian approach to gun control reveals a stunning ignorance about the public safety issues of our time. American cities are in the midst of a murder wave — one that Florida, with its sensible gun laws and responsible pro-Second Amendment leadership, has escaped the worst of....This wave of violence is not fueled by the Second Amendment, but by the lawlessness and hatred for the police that Biden and other Democrats ignored or even encouraged for the entirety of this summer. To this day, many Democrat-run cities refuse to stop rioters and looters, and they are the ones that have seen the most shocking tragic increases in “ordinary” homicides....Thirty years ago, politicians could get away with simplistically attributing violent crime to gun ownership to push an anti-Second Amendment agenda. Today, with decades of data that conclusively show virtually no benefit from the gun ban implemented with Biden’s support in 1994, it’s not so easy....Rogan O’Handley (@DC_Draino) is a former entertainment lawyer who now posts conservative political commentary and news online.

Raw Power Posted November 5, 2020 at 01:10 PM Share Posted November 5, 2020 at 01:10 PM "Shoot through the door" Biden's Anti platform is dead on arrival. I don't see any of it having much chance of passing, much less remaining law under court challenges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they can claim bi-partisanship those might get some traction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
