Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Naaah, there's no liberal/Rat party bias in the press.

For some odd reason this story omits a number of relevant facts.

Biden has proposed a new "assault weapons" ban. Biden just announced that Beto, a person who has publicly stated that he wants to confiscate guns, will be his point person on gun issues.

Far from being "full of shit" the guy who questioned Biden has a very legitimate point and Biden should be pressed to answer for it instead of being excused for being an asshole. And it's Joe who doesn't have his facts straight and is lying. He claims the "AR-14" is a machine gun and that they are already illegal. This guys don't even know the weapons they want to ban.

    Huh, this interaction makes me like Biden a lot more. Maybe there's something to this whole "decorum is overrated" movement.

    For some reason I get the feeling you'd be swooning if Trump had told a liberal provocateur the same thing.

    Biden, gets his facts wrong and lies about his stated position on assault weapons. Yeah, I can see why you loved it.

    "You are actively trying to end our Second Amendment right and take away our guns,"

    I don't see any statement from Biden that suggests that he's going to repeal the 2nd Amendment or otherwise confiscate guns that are currently owned by private citizens. Feel to free to point me in the right direction if he did in fact say that.

    Edit: just saw the video above. I won't run away from this and I'll happily concede that point to you. Whether Biden has it as a platform item or not, he has in fact suggested that he could confiscate assault rifles from private citizens.

    Biden lied about his position when confronted with the facts. He then insulted the person who correctly cited back to him his record and then threaten the person with physical violence.

    And with that comment you just elevated yourself about 95% of all other liberals.

    I appreciate the sentiment, though not the label.

    Pulse check for the Tug: would you repeal the 1986 assault rifle ban?

    Personally I'm in favor of the ban, but certainly wouldn't support any measure (like Biden suggested to Cooper) that would entail confiscating existing weapons from citizens that were grandfathered in.

    Twitter comments were similar. About time Democrats fought back!

    My contention has always been that most Americans prefer a fight.

    Joe has a lot of support and likes to be the tough guy. He would be formidable if he isnt suffering from dementia

    The Democrats complain about Trump because he's effective.

    Biden doesn't know the trigger pull weight and rifling pattern inside the gun so he doesn't know shit about the guns he's talking about. Great defense Bob.
