Democrats have always been unwilling to learn anything about guns or even most gun laws before spouting off their gun control talking points. Still, they have somehow become even lazier on this issue over the past few years.
Two people were killed and several more injured at a shooting at Abundant Life Christian School in Madison, Wisconsin, on Monday. Like clockwork, President Joe Biden trotted out a copy-and-paste statement about how “We need Congress to act. Now,” and that we need “commonsense gun safety laws: Universal background checks. A national red flag law. A ban on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines.” Vice President Kamala Harris echoed those same positions along with “safe storage laws.”
