The speech, which compared dead American children to US casualties in war, came on a night when fellow Democrats on a House committee passed a string of proposals that most Americans might support but have no chance of passing through a GOP blockade in the Senate. The National Rifle Association immediately rejected his proposals, but a few Senate Republicans are still negotiating with Democrats.
Florida passed a red flag law after a string of shootings there and Republicans did not pay a political price, which has led to some hope among advocates for new gun laws that a national red flag effort could be possible."If we can't ban assault weapons as we should, we must at least raise the age to be able to purchase one to 21."Biden points out that the Uvalde shooter waited until he was 18 to buy guns his sister would not buy for him as a 17-year-old.
Susan Collins will frown. Mittens Romney will change direction when the wind does.
For Democrats to not acknowledge that mental heath is the real issue leaves our streets litter with homeless and a sea of hidden mentally ill people on the edge of snapping. People who will kill you with whatever they have,..guns or not. Crazy cannot be fix by banning guns.
I think his speech was great. Meeningful and to the point. Action is needed.
As a European, I am starting to believe that a holiday in Afghanistan is safer than in the US: in Afghanistan only the Taliban is heavily armed…
He should implore 12 GQP senators. He must always account for MANCHINEMA. ALWAYS!!
Thanks to Biden , Obama and. Eric Holder giving criminals 1000’s of assault and machine guns , How Stupid ! Operation Fast & Furious killed police and people , these guns continue turn up on the street and they are still killing people … No mention of this in the news … Shame
There's no way to get any republicans on board and even if he did the supreme court would strike it down. Why do we keep repeating history where the right looks for support to the far right out of fear of the left gaining popularity. It never ends well.
If the government mandates you something, it means it shouldn't, otherways it would be already done.
Throw in better back ground checks , raise the penalty for people who don’t secure there weapons . But prevention prevention prevention Make schools safe by putting up security fences! You shouldn’t be able to walk off the street into a elementary school!! Wake up people
R u even gonna report on his attempts to privatize medicare?
If an 18-year-old isn’t “mature enough” to own a firearm, then maybe 5-year-olds aren’t mature enough to change their gender.
Momentum y’all need kids death to get some traction because y’all are so ignorant on the issues!! Protect each school,hospitals,churches,grocery stores! With simple preventative measures so mentally ill people can’t access these locations with any kind of weapon!!
Trump would’ve had BrittneyGriner brittneygriner home by now.
I doubt any Republicans will join him. Their obstructionist tactics are so complete they will not sign onto anything Democrats want even if it means saving lives.
