Bidenās Unserious Crime Proposal | National Review
The presidentās plan isnāt about combating lawlessness in our cities, but pushing Democratsā gun-control agenda.
"Bidenās plan doesnāt deal with any of these underlying issues. Instead, it is just another attempt to tie the rise in crime to a lack of movement on gun control. For one thing, the notion that firearm ownership is driving crime rates is undermined by the fact that, until very recently, violent crime had precipitously fallen even as firearm ownership continued to rise. In fact, the new gun-buying binge is, in part, propelled by the rise of disorder.
Biden calls for renewing āghost gunā regulation and an āassault weaponsā ban, even though AR-15s and homemade guns are involved in only a sliver of firearm criminality.
Biden is asking for the implementation of āuniversalā background checks, even though most firearms used in shootings are obtained illegally.
Bidenās proposal tasks the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives with holding ārogue firearms dealers accountableā and implementing āzero-toleranceā for those who engage in āwillful violations of the law.ā Thatās a good thing. Existing gun laws should be rigorously enforced. Yet the federal government is notoriously derelict in failing to prosecute those who violate those laws in purchasing or attempting to purchase firearms.ā
Studies have shown that most illegal firearms are bought on the streets or stolen. Very few are obtained through illicit purchases from registered gun dealers."
Again, Biden's own DOJ reports only 10% of weapons used in crimes are from federally licensed gun dealers and only 0.8% are from gun shows.....
So the BULK of Biden's 'Crime Bill' targets only 10.8% of where guns used in violent crimes / murders come form.
