President Joe Biden wasn’t shy about his feelings regarding the Second Amendment. As a candidate, the Democrat from Delaware made it very clear that he favored more restrictions on gun ownership, going as far as to endorse the idea that all semi-automatic weapons should be banned for civilians.
Adding fuel to this fire was single-issue candidate Beto O’Rourke, whom Biden tapped as the guy who would take care of the AR-15 problem. Another former rival, current Vice President Kamala Harris, also campaigned hard on the gun control issue, saying that she would use her authority within the first 100 days to implement restrictions on gun ownership. It’s still not known what authority she was referring to, but the point was clear: no matter who got the Democratic Party’s nomination in 2020, it was going to be an anti-Second Amendment candidate.
Despite all of the rhetoric, we still haven’t seen any major push from the administration — or even the ideologues in Congress — for gun control legislation. Sure, there have been provisions in other bills, and maybe even some drafts that haven’t made it past committees, but we haven’t seen the gun control issue enjoy the same status COVID-era enhanced unemployment benefits.
This raises the question — is the administration simply too distracted to go after the guns? Can gun owners in America finally relax?
As much as we would love to report that the threat against our constitutional rights is taking a temporary hiatus, we just can’t. The threat is very real, and the only reason why we haven’t seen much of it is because other issues have taken temporary precedence. Its inevitable — Democrats in power will revisit the gun control issue as soon as they feel like they’re able to.
Here’s the Daily Shooter with more thoughts.
Every American CITIZEN should arm themselves against the new trend of lawlessness. Police won’t be there to help us. YES women should know and understand any and all issues about fire arms. Women need to protect themselves. Politicians having been trying to disarm America for decades but not for the gun violence. It’s the fear of Americans rebelling against them. One Congresswoman just stated when asked about her $77,000 security. I DON’T care about anyone else ( Americans ) I am able to go out and do what I need to.
SAYS it ALL.

Take my AR-15 away and give it the Taliban
everyone in America who values freedom and the American way of life should have guns and ammo enough to last through what I believe is inevitable and fast coming. we have no representation in government. it is every man for himself, and dog eat dog. we will have to rise up at some point and say this is enough!!! we won’t have tyrannical rule, we won’t have our freedoms demolished by some WOKE moron. and we can thank the Kenyan fool for inventing that word. we have to stop this demolition of all we hold dear. we do not need new words that soothe all the misfits in our society today. they are the minority, not us. I am sorry that so many deluded fools think there are more than men and women in this world. I feel sorry for those who think they can change into whatever they want simply by acting like their idols. as the old saying goes, if you are born with a d—, you will never be a chick. face it. act adult. or form your own colonies of like minded folk. don’t try to shove it down real peoples throats. what you do in the privacy of your own home, should stay there. not flaunted like you just discovered a miracle. most normal people laugh at you. on another vein, this isn’t 1945 Germany. we dont need or want you coming to our door, and nosing into our medical histories. those that want your poison will seek it. those who dont, won’t. and you may get something you didn’t want if you knock on the wrong door. true Americans will never be led. we are free. that is what this country was founded on, and we must fight like all hell to keep it that way. I say keep. your powder dry. you can never own too many guns.
