Rightly or wrongly, he is a man of action.
So, what is the implication that would affect you personally?

Just in: Biden urges Congress to pass assault weapon ban

Bottom line, define assault weapon!!!
A few centuries ago, a crossbow was an assault weapon!!!
If JOE gets his way, give me a crossbow, I will get a firearm!!!!

Bottom line, define assault weapon!!!

That's just it, they aren't going to define it. They've known for 20+ years that there is no such thing as an "assault weapon," but yet they continue to use the term. Why?

Because it doesn't HAVE a definition, so it can many ANYTHING they want it to mean. Your hunting rifle could be an assault weapon. Your BB gun. And as you so astutely observe, your bow or crossbow.

So when they propose legislation to ban all "assault weapons," I hope legislators - or God-forbid - voters, read the fine print very closely.

Well another shooting will be used to justify gun control

He's gonna get good people killed at the hands of criminals.

Hi there. And are you gonna be safe yourself?

@Naomi - a little less safe. I prefer it when criminals are concerned for their own lives when perpetrating illegal activity. Guns are estimated at preventing close to 7,000 criminal acts daily here in the states. When women are armed, attempted rapes plummet by a factor of 10.

“I like taking the guns early, like in this crazy man’s case that just took place in Florida ... to go to court would have taken a long time,” Trump said at a meeting with lawmakers on school safety and gun violence. “Take the guns first, go through due process second,” Trump said.

Trump was harder on guns than Obama or Biden ever have been.

Interesting. You often make me aware of the other side of the coin, and I appreciate it.

If his previous administration is any indication, they'll have to pass the bill for us to know what's in the bill. The effect of legislation is unknowable until the bureaucrats dream up the regulatory codes and enforcement processes.

Time will tell.

Hi there. And if it passes, is it going to affect your daily life in any way?

@Naomi, I can't know yet; it depends on how it turns out. What does"assault weapon" mean? Or "ban?" What is a "high capacity magazine?" Do they intend to restrict transfers, making some of my firearms worth less? Do they force a "buy back" program and make me a criminal for declining to "sell?"

If something is passed I'll know better what impact it has on me, personally. It might force me to carry openly a .45 with spare magazines, rather than a concealed .380 with 15 rounds. We'll see only when/if something passes.

@Naomi
If the police are militarized, I guess it would put an authoritarian government at an advantage

@BubbaLouie If citizens have "assault weapons", why would we care what the police/government has???? That is why OUR Fore Fathers put the Second Amendment into the Constitution!!!!

Once they have you guns you are in trouble

You certainly lose a great deal of the aurora of legitimacy.

@wolfhnd I am in Australia. They took everyone's automatics and now we are having our rights abused

@Poncho69

The question was how does it effect you personally not what is the remedy for authoritarian regimes. I'm arguing that it is symbolic reality not the physical reality of potential armed conflict that matters up to the point where civil war breaks out. Private militias such as those provided for in U.S. constitution give governments symbolic legitimacy. It is type of moral authority that cannot be acquired in any other way. That moral authority in turn prevents chaos in our personal lives.

One of the reasons democratic socialism doesn't work is that the moral authority comes from the ideology not the agency and dignity of the people. It strips people of the agency that makes them act responsibly. Agency is fragile and is constructed in the individual through responsibility. Private gun ownership becomes not just a right but a responsibility that builds character.

@wolfhnd all governments fail eventually

@Poncho69

Yes and no, there is a genetic link between Athens and today. That genetic line could be extinguished by a Chinese one but otherwise it will continue in some form. It has had it's ups and downs but it keeps recreating itself periodically.

@wolfhnd well Australia of today is completely different to before WW2 but same government system. But which one is correct? The old the new or the current

@Poncho69

It's never perfect but it's definitely going down hill, incompetence and corruption.

@wolfhnd big government run by big business
