SAN DIEGO — President Joe Biden is expected to sign an executive order on Tuesday aiming to increase the number of background checks to buy guns, promote better and more secure firearms storage and ensure U.S. law enforcement agencies are getting the most out of a bipartisan gun control law enacted last summer.
The Democratic president plans to address his latest efforts to curb gun violence in a speech from Monterey Park, California. In January, a gunman stormed a dance hall in the community near Los Angeles and shot 20 people, killing 11, following a Lunar New Year celebration.
Biden’s rhetoric has only grown stronger around guns

Are we allowed to know how Biden stores his shotgun?

No big deal.
Only middle-class property owners need worry about this.
The rest of the country won't notice any difference.

Meanwhile close to one hundred thousand people die each year due to his open border policies.

Before going after Gun Violence, shouldn't they be going after Vax Violence, and Car Violence first. Many more people dying in those categories.

Hey Joe. I'm not joking. People who want to shoot up dance halls and are criminals and gang members don't obey the law no matter how many new laws you pass.(said in a really creepy whisper).

Like the gang bangers and others that commit crime with guns needed a background check in order to get a gun. It ain't the guns. It's the culture.

Did Biden tell criminals to be truthful on their federal and state firearms background check application forms? Or is his order aimed at inconveniencing law abiding firearms owners?

Won't apply to certain groups. What with diversity, equity, inclusion, social justice, and all that.
Keep guns out of the hands of blacks? That would be racist!

Gaby Giffords bought a "Self Own" advert in Miami last week...it showed a Blue figure and a red figure, each with a concealed handgun...you had to flip the advert upside down for them to "Make their point".
The point is...the RED(repub) figure is a well trained, competent, LAWFUL gun owner,
The BLUE(democrat) figure is a felon, criminal, drunk, who bought and carries an illegal gun to commit crimes.

you can toggle right on the link to see the full advert, right side up.
She is doing joint events with Biden all week on this issue.

"shore up the rules for federally licensed gun dealers so they know they are required to do background checks as part of the license."
EVERY federally licensed gun dealer already knows this. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE.

When every Chicago gang banger fails a police gun purchase check I might listen.
Until them I'm buying more ammo.

So.....a violent person uses an ordinary handgun to shoot people and Traitor Joe says "See, we need to ban assault weapons".....when there is no connection, just lie.
