However, Uncle Joe is boasting about the 1994 gun-ban. I do not trust him, especially if he won big.
I'm with ya. And a huge part of it is that I don't think Biden will be the author of a Biden policy platform. His already glitch-prone mental capacity ain't what it used to be, and I have no real doubt that, if elected, his Executive Order pen will be swift and the hands moving it will not be his own...so there won't be any concern over Biden's "legacy," only using the Oval Office as a tool to get leftist agendas accomplished. Whether or not SCOTUS still has honorable sitting justices to interpret the Constitution as actually written, there is still a lot of damage that can be done via executive order.

The two oldest Supremes are RGB, who turned 88 last March and we all know is in declining health, and Stephen Breyer, who turns 82 in two weeks (a Clinton appointee and who in 2006 said that in assessing a law's constitutionality, while some of his colleagues "emphasize language, a more literal reading of the [Constitution's] text, history and tradition," he looks more closely to the "purpose and consequences"). :shock: We need those two seats replaced with Constitutionalists, textualists, not leftist revisionists. I'll bet you good money that had Hillary been in office, RGB would have retired by now. And if Biden gets in, that Breyer will retire. So a Biden presidency could realistically have two SCOTUS appointees early in the term. Next on the age-out list would be Clarence Thomas; he just turned 72 last June, so hopefully he and his conservative judicial philosophies have several more good years to hang in there.

If Republicans lose both the White House and the Senate, and Biden gets to replace two Supremes year one, God help us all.

Yeppers. You read that right. And not only is there no attempt to disguise it, the number of links in the content to external websites tells the story:
  • 14 —> giffords.org (previously known as the Legal Community Against Violence and as the Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence; merged in 2016 with Americans for Responsible Solutions, led by former Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords and her husband retired NASA astronaut Captain Mark Kelly)
  • 2 —> everytownresearch.org (created in 2013 when Mayors Against Illegal Guns and Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America joined forces; is financed by Michael Bloomberg
  • 2 —> marchforourlives.com (started as March for Our Lives, a student-led 2018 demonstration in support of legislation to prevent gun violence; you can see where much of the money came from to start this group here)
  • 2 —> thetrace.org (devoted to gun-related news in the US; established in 2015 with money from the gun control advocacy group Everytown for Gun Safety, which was founded by Michael Bloomberg)

Biden's Position on Guns for His Presidency

If you haven't read this, you should. Carefully. And so should anyone you know who owns or is thinking about owning a gun, and/or who believes in the Constitution of the United States of America and the Bill of Rights. Yes, you have to click through the demand to donate to get to the actual page:

In no way, shape, or form is this the position of a purported "moderate." If elected, Biden will be nothing but a talking head for his handlers. And his handlers want to see the heaviest possible lid slammed down on the 2nd Amendment and firearm ownership in America.
