Joe Biden Wants to Ban 9mm Pistols
Nov. 25, 2019
A week after he told voters that the Second Amendment doesn’t protect “a magazine with a hundred clips in it,†2020 Democratic Presidential Candidate Joe Biden offered supporters more of his singular brand of anti-gun nonsense. While attending a private campaign event in Seattle, the former vice president reportedly called for a ban on 9mm pistols.
According to an article from the Seattle Times (https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/politics/speaking-at-the-house-of-amazon-joe-biden-gently-raises-companys-role-in-middle-class-job-losses/#comments), Biden was in town to attend two private fundraisers, one of which was at the home of “a top Amazon executive.†The posh soiree set attendees back a princely $2,800 per-person. The other fundraiser was held at the home of a local philanthropist. That staider event offered donors a relative bargain with a $500 minimum price tag.

ESAD, you 'handy' has-been. It's my stuff, and you can't have it.

Why should we allow people to have military-style weapons ...
Do Creepy Joe and other gun-grabber realize that the guns people kept and bore in the late 18th and early 19th Centuries - when the 2nd Amendment was ratified - were the same sort of guns the US Army and states' militias used, i.e. literally military weapons?

Good point, Pete. And is the 9mm a military weapon? I have my father's WWII issue .22 pistol. Perhaps even that is a Joe-prohibited military weapon. *****rollingeyes*****
