Biden's Union Address Reveals No Fresh Ideas, Offers No Boost to Liberty
In his 2022 State of the Union address, President Joe Biden called for stricter gun control measures, including universal background checks for gun purchases and bans on assault weapons with high-capacity magazines. These proposals, however, have faced opposition from many Americans and gun rights advocates.
According to recent data, over eight million new gun owners were recorded in the year prior, with more than five million new gun owners in America in 2021 alone. This surge in gun ownership could be a response to Biden's desire for stringent gun-control measures.
The Democratic Party, known for its support of strict gun control, advocated for similar policies in 2022, such as universal background checks, bans on assault weapons, and restrictions on high-capacity magazines. However, law-abiding Americans have expressed a desire for current laws to be enforced, rather than stricter measures proposed by Biden.
Biden's stance on the Second Amendment has been a topic of debate. He stated that these measures would not infringe on the Second Amendment, but critics argue that his proposals distort the Amendment's intended purpose. The Second Amendment, while relevant due to America's hunting heritage, is not solely about hunting.
The National Rifle Association (NRA) has been a vocal opponent of Biden's gun control agenda. NRA memberships can be bought for friends and family to support freedom, and the NRA-ILA Grassroots provides ways for individuals to get involved in defending freedom.
Despite Biden's repeated statements about gun control in his speeches, mainstream media has not called out the President on his repeated lies about the Second Amendment. This has led some to question the media's role in holding public figures accountable for their statements.
Despite the controversy, Americans have been increasingly embracing their freedoms since the start of Biden's presidency. It remains to be seen how these gun control proposals will shape the political landscape in the coming months.
