Ban Or No Ban

Over the Memorial Day weekend, President Biden did what he does best -- spreading confusion and misinformation while toeing the leftist line.  While addressing the tragedy in Uvalde, Biden caused a lot of concern when he said “there is no rational basis” for 9mm ammunition and weapons “in terms of self-protection, hunting.”

What Biden doesn’t understand, doesn’t appreciate or doesn’t care about is that he just lashed out at the firearms most people buy for self-defense.  If anyone doubts that the left’s ultimate goal is to confiscate firearms, remember Biden’s remarks.  As we noted yesterday, Canada is aggressively moving in this direction.

Predictably, the White House was busy yesterday trying to clean up Biden’s threat to ban handguns.  But there was another disturbing statement. 

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre was asked about proposals to “harden” our schools with physical changes and having trained security guards just like we do at banks, museums and sporting events. 

Pierre replied, “I know there has been a conversation about hardening schools, that is not something [Biden] believes in.”

What?!

Once again, it’s clear that the left is only interested in restricting your Second Amendment rights, not anything else that might actually work.

And it raises an interesting question:  If a school security officer at Robb Elementary had been able to stop the Uvalde attacker, what would the White House say?  That would be the worst possible outcome for the left, which is so determined to disarm the American people.
