Once again, Biden makes another incompetent move to tackle gun violence. Yes, the same person who didn’t reprimand his son for owning a gun illegally…
Biden is so serious that he’s doing nothing to get the illegal guns out of the hands of criminals. Instead, he harasses law-abiding gun owners and gun stores… focusing on restricting rifles less known for their use in gun violence cases.
There’s also a high chance Biden will use excessive fees, taxation, and burdensome regulations to put firearms out of reach for everyone except the rich and connected.
The average American citizen – including gun owners without stockpiles of ammo – will effectively be disarmed… If this isn’t a direct violation of our Second Amendment rights then I don’t know what is.
Republican Senator Tom Cotton pointed out the absolute ridiculousness of Biden’s plans during a hearing. He said, “He [Biden] wants to ignore the gun crimes that are happening in cities across America… while he takes away the rifle you have in your home to protect yourself from criminals.”
Then he added, “So it’s not surprising that he nominated David Chipman, an anti-gun radical.”
As of now, David Chipman is stuck in limbo. His nomination is deadlocked in the Senate Judiciary Committee… and he’s not able to do anything. Now we’re seeing that Biden – an incompetent leader – assigned another incompetent person to fight gun violence.
2021 is the deadliest year for gun violence in the US in two decades. According to the Gun Violence Archive – as of July this year – more than 10,700 people have been killed in shootings.
Senator Cotton bluntly mentioned in the same hearing why we have such a large increase in crime.
- We are letting violent, serious, repeat felons out of prison
- We are refusing to send these people to prison
- We are harassing the police for doing their jobs and we’re slashing their budgets
He ends his statement with, “… that’s why we have a crime wave in America. Until we stop it, that crime wave will continue.”
Chicago is one of the most affected cities in the country. According to the Tribune, there have been 1,597 people shot in the windy city as of last month.
Despite all these unfortunate events, the dem mayor of Chicago Lori Lightfoot still declared a decline in crime during a press conference last June. When in fact, data shows otherwise.
Another incompetent dem leader who can’t do her job right… is ruining our country. We can see how the dems don’t want to admit their faults and failures even when there’s already a crisis in front of them.
The problem right now is not just gun violence. It’s the leaders seated “not trying their best” to solve the issues at hand.
