Biden Calls for Sweeping Gun Control Agenda
President Joe Biden invoked victims’ family members in imploring an evenly divided Senate to “do something” in response to a spate of mass shootings, saying schools had become like “killing fields” and that it was time to “meet the moment.”
The president said Thursday that the federal bans on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines should be reinstated, arguing that the expiration of these provisions led to an increase in mass shootings. The age at which certain weapons could be purchased should go up, he said, adding that immunity for gun manufacturers should also be lifted. Safe storage should be required, and background checks should be expanded, Biden continued.
“Enough,” Biden whispered. He said parents had to do “DNA swabs” to identify their children because the powerful weapons made their corpses unrecognizable and swatted away practical and constitutional objections to his proposals. “Don’t tell me raising the age won’t make a difference,” Biden said. “Enough.”
Biden opened by talking about the rows of crosses he and first lady Jill Biden saw on Memorial Day. He likened it to the crosses he saw commemorating the 19 schoolchildren and two teachers killed at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, last week.
