President Joe Biden pledged to ban “assault weapons” again during a Wednesday night address to the House Democratic Caucus Issues Conference, saying he would secure the ban “come hell or high water.”
FOX News quoted Biden saying, “I know it may make some of you uncomfortable, but that little state above me, Delaware is one of them, has the highest rate, one of the highest rates of gun ownership. But guess what? We’re going to ban assault weapons again come hell or high water. And high capacity magazines.”
Biden’s push for an “assault weapons” ban comes just weeks after an attacker used handguns to kill three people on the Michigan State University campus.
An “assault weapons” ban would not have prevented nor even hindered the Michigan State University attack from occurring.
On March 2, Breitbart News reported that Newport City, Rhode Island, city Councilwoman Jeanne-Marie Napolitano pointed to the Michigan State University handgun attack to explain her support for an “assault weapons” ban in her state.
