NRA challenges Biden’s clownish gun advice and Kerry’s phantom ‘AR-16’
As the gun debate begins to heat up, the nation’s gun lobby is pointing out what little President Joe Biden and his team know about weapons or why people feel the need to protect themselves.
In a new four-minute video, the National Rifle Association asks, “Why is it that the people who want to take our guns know absolutely nothing about them?”
The video leaves the mockery of Biden, spokeswoman Jen Psaki, and world climate czar John Kerry to key Republican shooters, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, Reps. Jim Jordan of Ohio and Burgess Owens of Utah, and North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson.
I don’t know much about nuclear weapons, but I don’t think the untrained general public should be able to own those either…!

“They really believe they know everything about everything, and they know nothing about guns,” said Owens.
The video opens with Biden’s advice to his wife to ward off encroachers by taking a double-barreled shotgun to the balcony and firing a couple blasts. “I promise you, whoever is coming in is not gonna,” he said.
Of course, gun advocates explain, that’s not safe, she would then be out of ammunition, and none of the attackers would be injured.
He continued by opposing AR-15s and the five or more rounds those rifles can hold, saying, “you don’t need 30 rounds to protect yourself.” His advice: “Buy a shotgun.”
Said Jordan, “It’s almost like, where do you start?”
Owens suggested, “Have him come to Philadelphia. Have him come to Detroit. Chicago. And, walk outside and use a shotgun and see what happens at that point.”
Robinson added, “Aren’t warning shots illegal?”
And Pompeo said, “You know, Americans ought to have the right to defend themselves precisely the way that the Constitution and our founders understood it. Somehow, the idea that President Biden gets to decide precisely which firearms we ought to have and precisely how we ought to protect our home and our family is absolutely ludicrous.”
