Biden Talks About Gun Safety Hours After Son’s Firearms Conviction
President Biden spoke to the nation’s largest gun control group shortly after his son Hunter Biden was convicted in Delaware of three felony counts of lying on a federal firearms application in 2018.
After a school shooting in Iowa that killed a student and a teacher, my predecessor was asked about it. You remember what he said? He said, “Have to get over it.” Hell no, we don’t have to get over it. [cheering] We’ve got to stop it. We’ve got to stop it and stop it now. More children are killed in America by guns than cancer and car accidents combined. My predecessor told the N.R.A. convention recently, he’s proud that, quote, “I did nothing on guns when I was president.” And by doing nothing, he made the situation considerably worse. Folks, look, this is crazy what we’re talking about. Because whether we’re Democrats or Republicans, we want our families to be safe. We all want to drop them off at a house of worship, a mall, a movie theater, a school without worrying that it’s the last time I’m going to get to see them. We all want our kids to have the freedom to learn how to read and write in schools instead of learn how to duck and cover, for God’s sake.
