Current social unrest has triggered record firearm sales
At the outset, the political figure Joe Biden indicated will be lead on gun control, former Congressman and failed presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke, has made clear his disaffection for firearms, and intent to limit ownership, not just with legislation limiting sales, but with mandatory buy-backs. He famously said in September 2019, “Hell, yes, we’re going to take your AR-15, your AK-47,” when quizzed. Echoing confiscation sentiment, former O’Rourke staffer and now aspiring Biden Deputy Chief of Staff, Jen O’Malley Dillon, has made clear her views. One is pushing “mandatory buybacks” of firearms, including so-called assault weapons – semi-automatic rifles distinguished by their military appearance.
Sometimes the obvious bears repeating. Now is such a moment. The Second Amendment, allowing every American “to keep and bear arms,” was key to passing the US Constitution. If the Biden Campaign prevails in lawsuits and Electoral College, leading appointees will take aim at the Amendment.
While current social unrest has triggered record firearm sales, and one recent poll shows support for gun control at its lowest point in four years, Biden partisans have made clear their interest in curtailing the Second Amendment.
