In a speech at the 10th annual National Vigil for All Victims of Gun Violence, Pres. Biden calls it 'common sense' to ban assault weapons, limit the number of bullets allowed in a cartridge and restrict the types of weapons that can be bought and sold.

After five people were killed at an LGBTQ nightclub in Colorado Springs last month, Biden again called to get "weapons of war off our streets.""More families left with an empty chair at the table and hole in their lives that cannot be filled," Biden said after the shooting. "When will we decide we've had enough?"

But with Republicans taking control of the House next year, an assault weapons ban and many of the other tougher restrictions Biden is calling for will face an uphill battle. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre wouldn't say if the White House believes they can get that done in a divided Congress.

"The President signed the most significant gun safety legislation in 30 years this summer, but he feels it's not enough," she said. "He believes that we need to do more and he's been very vocal about that these past several months.

He cant without house and senate

How can some people in this thread talk about more types of gun control when the laws we already have in place arent enforced lol..cmon gov is looking for control wait up

I agree with the President. There should be a ban on ALL ASSAULT RIFLES! We have lost enough children and innocent people because of them.

🥔

Biden wants to disarm America back to the 1800s

Wait. How many bullets can be in a cartridge? That would be one.

All political power comes from the barrel of a gun. The communist party must command all the guns, that way, no guns can ever be used to command the party. Mao Zedong

I agree, you should never have over 100 bullets in a cartridge. If you build it I will buy.

It's only common sense if you want to overpower The People.

Those 3 bullet-headed cartridges need to be limited, maybe all the way down to just one bullet per cartridge?

Our own government is being weaponized against its citizens. Every day we inch closer to a ruling party that mimics the Chinese government and other dictatorships. They always go after the guns first before moving full steam ahead. 2nd amendment shall not be infringed. PERIOD!

FJB! LGB! MAGA KAG ❤🇺🇸

NOPE

How about 'No, Mr. President.'

Ignorant propagandists 2A ShallNotBeInfringed

The reason the last 'ban' expired is because the evidence showed that there was no decrease in crime after the ban. Thus no additional 'lives saved'. Shocker that Biden would get behind the podium and outright lie with a sleepy face.

I renew calls for a Joe Biden ban, this vegetable is a national embarrassment

What worked give me stats not lies

impeach for blatant violation of the constitution.

In a cartridge?

Such a libocrite…been in office over 40 years!! Bottom of the rich swamp

No, these deaths are not because of a tool that was God given & that politicians fear in the hands of their constituents. This is a mere reflection of the failure on many levels of mental health care, the justice system, law enforcement, media, parents and the community at large.

Dear.president......first.aid.words.medicaly..

Mr. President you are SO RIGHT!

A well regulated militia, being necessary to THE SECURITY of a FREE STATE, the RIGHT of THE PEOPLE to keep and bear arms SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED. ~ The Second Amendment to the United States Constitution

Uh, no you can't. Not legally anyway.

This clown still has no idea what he is talking about. He gave millions of weapons to the Taliban Russia China and wants to take legal gun owners weapons away. Doesn’t say anything about criminals or the drugs flowing in the boarder killing hundreds of people daily. fjb

It's not guns (sorry) dosed off. Where was I? Oh people kill people.

Biden needs his hot cocoa and cookies.

ShallNotBeInfringed

Well that’s some strong reporting there. Glad they’re checking the facts for us…

He and congressional members should lead by example and remove all assault weapons from their security details.

Lol. How many bullets in a cartridge - that’s hilarious. 🤡😂

Sadly after his speech he did not receive the ice cream he was indeed promised.

Idiot!

Bullets in a cartridge? WTF

Where we also learned his son, Beau, was a victim of gun violence, and his other son’s purchase of a semi-automatic gun was completely legit.

Criminals do not buy guns legally. We don’t need more GunControl as it only rids law-abiding citizens the ability to defend themselves and leave them vulnerable to criminals with illegal guns. What we need is StopAndFrisk back! 2A DoNotComply

Wonder why so many gun shootings lately? It’s the “problem-reaction-solution” agenda that the powers that be, use. They want to take away guns, so they increase ghost guns among society resulting in gun violence and public outcry for GunReform, which is their intention. Beware❗️

Not aware of any cartridge that holds more than one bullet.

Why wasn't the Assault Riffle Ban renewed, (after 10 years)? Wasn't the Obama administration supposed to do that?

Thousands more Americans die from handgun homicide every year than they do assault weapons. He talks like a lifelong politician. banhandguns
