      TID: PX/Win v7.0 PX37-1262M       MSGID: 1:218/602 9b431010       TZUTC: -0700       "Every time President Joe Biden opens his mouth about the second amendment,        firearms laws, or guns in general he makes an ignorant statement. California       State        Senator Kevin de Le˙n is still the gold standard for making ignorant       statements about        firearms with his ˙ghost gun˙ rant, but President Biden is doing everything he       can to        surpass that statement.              On Memorial Day, Sleepy Joe took to the podium and decided to bring up the       second        amendment as it would apply to cannons when it became a part of the Bill Of       Rights in        1791. ˙The Second Amendment was never absolute. You couldn˙t buy a cannon when        the Second Amendment was passed. You couldn˙t go out and purchase a lot of        weapons.˙              This is a talking point he has been trying to push for over two years now, and       one he        claims after any shooting that grabs national interest. With the Washington       Post and        Politifact both calling him out about this being a bald-faced lie, he refuses       to listen to the        truth on the subject no matter who is trying to talk with him.              His legion of followers are parroting his rhetoric and recites it as if it was       a fact. They        have been doing this for some time now too, and whenever they are confronted       with the        truth about the situation they often start screaming, bring up other arguments       as it will        suddenly change the truth, or simply refuse to continue the discussion as they       are ill-       prepared for the discussion.       Unfortunately for every second amendment-loving American, we are getting to a       point        where the possibility of Biden using executive orders to try and force his gun       control        upon us is closer than ever. With the recent upticks in mass shootings, poor       security/law        enforcement response to school shootings, and the national outcry for       something to be        done, the day for severe action to be taken is closing in.              One of the most commonly discussed ideas that President Biden never brings up       is the        ˙Red Flag Law˙ in the Republican-dominated state of Florida. This is a newer       idea that is        showing a lot of promise from a place commonly known as The Gunshine State.              As CNN explains ˙also known as risk protection orders, was one piece of a       sprawling gun        reform package that then-Gov. Rick Scott signed into law just three weeks       after a        teenage gunman killed 17 people inside Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.       It        included $400 million in new spending for priorities like school security and       mental        health resources and allowed trained school staff to carry firearms for the       first time.        Republican lawmakers also agreed to raise the age to own a gun to 21 and       implemented        a three-day waiting period to purchase most rifles.˙       While many don˙t agree with the idea of having to wait to get their firearms,       and it can        certainly be construed as an infringement upon our rights (as the second       amendment        explicitly forbids), it could be seen as a middle ground agreement with the       leftists who        believe nothing but a total confiscation will change the culture here in       America. Their        idea of a gun-free utopia is something that might sound nice to them in       theory, but it is        nothing but a pipe dream.              Until the leftists and anti-gun nuts are willing to become educated on the       subject, their        ideas will continue to punish law-abiding gun owners. Many of these same       people are        the same ones crying out that men should not be creating abortion laws. Much       the        same, people who know nothing about guns should not be trying to make laws       about        them.              If they actually learned how guns work, they might understand how little their       laws do to        keep people safe. If they want real changes in gun crimes, we need real       changes in our        society."                                    --- Platinum Xpress/Win/WINServer v7.0        * Origin: Platinum Xpress Support 305-248-7815 (1:218/602)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 10/0 1 15/0 90/1 103/705 105/81 106/201 120/340 123/131       SEEN-BY: 129/330 331 153/7715 218/0 1 109 650 700 840 850 860 870       SEEN-BY: 218/880 221/1 6 226/30 227/114 229/110 111 112 113 206 317       SEEN-BY: 229/400 424 426 428 470 700 240/1120 1634 1895 8001 8002       SEEN-BY: 240/8005 266/512 282/1038 291/111 301/1 317/3 320/219 322/757       SEEN-BY: 331/313 333/808 335/364 370 341/66 234 342/200 371/0 396/45       SEEN-BY: 460/58 712/848 770/1 3634/12 4500/1 5058/104       PATH: 218/602 712/1321 3634/12 240/1120 335/364 221/6 218/840 700       PATH: 229/426           |
