Biden opens mouth inserts foot

Vice President Joe Biden said Wednesday that too many people own guns simply
because they “like the way it feels,’’ and compared the handling of an AR-15
assault weapon for some to driving a pricey sports car.

"There is a whole
new sort of group of individuals now that never hunt at all," Biden said in an
interview taped Wednesday and aired Thursday on MSNBC’s “Morning
Joe.’’

“But they own guns for one of two reasons — self-protection, or
they just like the feel of that AR-15 at the range. . . They like the way it
feels. It's like driving a Ferrari, you know.
“And so my impression is
there’s not the same sort of cultural norm about gun ownership with a lot of
people who are buying guns now.”

The vice president continued his criticism
of the National Rifle Association, saying the powerful pro-gun group was guilty
of spreading “disinformation’’ and “paranoia’’ among the public.

Biden
said the public wants stricter gun control measures despite the reluctance of
lawmakers to pass them.

“This is one of the cases where the public is so
far ahead of the elected officials, I mean so far ahead,” Biden said in pushing
the Obama Administration’s ongoing quest for stricter gun control
measures.

“You saw it in immigration. You saw it in marriage issues. You
are seeing it now. The public has moved to a different place,” he
added

Biden slammed the argument that none of the gun-control measures
being pushed on Capitol Hill could have prevented the Newtown, Conn. school
massacre last December — insisting the size of ammunition magazines is
important.

"Well, No. 1, the police got there in two and a half minutes.
If there'd only been 10 bullets in each clip, [the shooter] would've had to
change the clip an additional three to five times.

"One of those kids
would be alive. Somebody would be alive. Statistically, the probability is that
he wouldn't have been able to get off 150
shots."

As a former Army Aviator, I used to carry a Colt Commando XM177 in my aircraft. I liked the feel of the weapon and I liked the way it shot. So what's Biden's problem? I collect the AR platform now just because I feel comfortable with the firearm, and it was the first military firearm I ever shot and maintained beginning at age 18. Biden is a classic example of brain and mouth not operating in sync. What a tool.

What Brain....that idiot doesn't have brains enough to know what time of day it is

[Subdeacon Joe]

And his problem is what, exactly? That some people like the feel of an AR or AK? It isn't illegal, so why should he care?

Biden has stuck his foot in his piehole so much, his tongue has "Rockport" permanently on it.
