Joe Biden’s former friends exposed him for telling a horrible lie.
His fabrication about guns put millions of people in harm’s way.
And his favorite newspaper finally admitted that Biden was being dishonest about guns.
Joe Biden wants Americans to believe that their friends and neighbors who own guns are secretly responsible for the deaths of children.
He has been trying to paint a picture of America as a place where roving bands of Republicans walk the streets with AR-15s looking for people to kill.
This has put gun owners in harm’s way, as they are now the target of legislative efforts in many different states to take away their right to bear arms.
In fact, the Supreme Court of the state of Hawaii even went so far as to undo the Second Amendment completely, saying that it didn’t square with the “Aloha spirit.”
It all traces back to the anti-gun effort to demonize gun owners, which Biden is feeding with his comments.
But one of the most liberal newspapers in America, the Washington Post, finally decided they had enough, and admitted that Biden was fabricating his statistics about guns.
According to an article from The Truth About Guns, “It was a ‘The Pigs are Flying’ moment after The Washington Post, the newspaper that has never found a gun control policy it did not fawn over, took up a gun control claim the Biden administration loves to repeat and determined it to be false.
“To be clear, Glenn Kessler’s The Fact Checker couldn’t bring itself to award any Pinocchios – not one – to the false claim, but its thorough breakdown and analysis of the claim left nothing misunderstood, saying that ‘Gun violence is the leading cause of death for children’ is patently ‘Not True.’”
Of course it’s absurd to claim that most children are at a serious threat of gun violence on a day-to-day basis. School shootings happen, no one denies that, but an infinitesimally small number of children in America will ever experience one.
Joe Biden, however, wants to make it sound like it is happening everywhere, all the time.
The article continues, “President Biden has repeated the claim often as he pushes again and again for more gun control. He began his campaign for the presidency in 2019 by calling firearm manufacturers ‘the enemy.’ He now uses the ‘firearms are the leading cause of death for children’ to push ever more restrictions on the Second Amendment while saying little to nothing about holding violent criminals accountable, let alone calling out soft-on-crime prosecutors who let those same criminals back out on the streets to commit more crimes.”
Instead of lying about guns, Joe Biden should start doing something about the inner-city crime that has caused so much violence and led directly to the shooting at the Kansas City Chiefs parade, which was perpetrated by street criminals.
His fabrications about gun violence have been exposed by the Washington Post, and he simply cannot pretend that they are true anymore.
