From the American Firearms Association It’s Time to IMPEACH JOE BIDEN!
They write:On day one of his presidency, Joe Biden declared war on our Second Amendment rights, and he hasn’t let up. He’s illegally and unconstitutionally used unelected federal bureaucrats to attack our God-given right to keep and bear arms. He is a traitor to our country and our Constitution. Protect our 2A rights.
A few comments:
Yes, Biden favors the same set of common sense gun laws as the vast majority of his fellow Americans, e.g. banning weapons of war and mandating background checks for prospective gun owners. But it doesn’t seem that he’s any more aggressive in this arena than the other recent Democrat president. Keep in mind that it
is not happening anyway, as the gun lobby has an iron grasp on our lawmaking process.
You have to be something of a nut to refer to Biden as a traitor to our country and our Constitution, simply because he doesn’t believe that the Second Amendment guarantees citizens, some of whom are mentally deranged, the right to own weapons whose sole purpose is killing as many people in as short a period of time as possible.
I normally don’t ridicule others’ religious beliefs, but I challenge the American Firearms Association to support the notion that gun ownership is a “God-given right.” If they want to claim that God wrote the bible, that’s up to them. But I’m fairly certain that He didn’t write the U.S. Constitution.
Well put — but not strong enough.
Any person — or organization — that writes that “God gave them the right to own a gun” (paraphrase) — is an religious wingnut.
That viewpoint is strickly crazy and baseless.
