When firearms are number one killer of children it is time to do as much as possible.

There you posted that lie again. Drowning is the number one cause of death of children.

I just googled it, came up empty.

The OP was close but he'd actually said "I’m going to try to get rid of assault weapons".

Wrong firearms are the leading cause of death in CHILDREN.......Come up from the QAnon rabbit hole.

The information below is from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Accidents (unintentional injuries) are, by far, the leading cause of death among children and teens.
...
5 to 14 years:
Accidents (unintentional injuries)
Cancer.
Suicide.

Joe Biden is protected by the same "assault weapons" he wants to take away from citizens who use them to protect themselves and their communities. All these pro gun control politicians should have their own guns and private security taken away from them.

I’m sure he made that announcement while surrounded by clapping seals at Nantucket right? I don’t even have to read it.

It's easy enough to find the information rather than fall for propaganda which includes 18 & 19 year olds as children in order to inflate the homicide numbers.

For 2020, e.g.

age <1 to 17 - 1,366 died from homicide by firearm,
721 suicide by firearm,
121 unintentional injury(death) by firearm.


age <1 to 17 - 2,231 died by motor vehicle, traffic.

No need for that QAnon comment.

basically Joe Biden wants to ban 99.99% legal weapon out there with his "semi automatic" ban talk

Biden is highly enamored with the concept and execution of the unconstitutional.

Can we also put that system in place for free speech, freedom of the press, voting, religion, etc?

I personally would love to see reporters have to take mandatory classes on ethics, journalistic integrity, then have to pay a fee for a license and be required to wait 7 days before reporting on stories...
