<p>Democrat President Joe Biden called for clamping down on Americans’ constitutionally protected Second Amendment rights during a speech on Thursday night following last week&#8217;s tragic shooting in Uvalde, Texas.</p>
<p>&#8220;This isn’t about taking away anyone’s rights,&#8221; Biden claimed before rattling off a list of ways that he wanted to take away people&#8217;s Second Amendment rights.</p>
<p>Biden called for banning semi-automatic long guns, which are extremely popular in the United States, banning what he claimed were &#8220;high-capacity magazines,&#8221; enacting red flag laws that strip Americans of due process, and going after gun manufacturers.</p>
<p>“We need to ban assault weapons and high capacity magazines,” Biden said. “And if we can’t ban assault weapons, then we should raise the age to purchase them from 18 to 21, strengthen the background checks.”</p>
<p>Raising the age needed to buy firearms would not have stopped nine of the 10 worst mass shootings in U.S. history as all of the shooters, except for two, were 21-years-old or older. Of the two shooters who were under 21, one of them, the man responsible for the Sandy Hook shooting, stole the weapons that he used from his parents.</p>
<p>Biden politicized recent tragedies to attack Republican lawmakers while his administration has struggled to manage numerous crises that have erupted under his leadership, including the crisis at the southern border, baby formula shortage, skyrocketing inflation, soaring fuel costs, and so on.</p>
<p>Biden&#8217;s call for restricting the rights of law abiding Americans comes as his own son, Hunter Biden, has been accused of committing a felony by lying on a background check form to illegally purchase a firearm.</p>
<p>&#8220;Hunter Biden lied on a Form 4473 to illegally purchase a gun, a felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison &amp; a $250K fine,&#8221; attorney Arthur Schwartz tweeted. &#8220;His girlfriend then dumped that gun in the trash next to a school. He wasn’t even arrested. Why don’t we enforce existing laws before demanding new ones?&#8221;</p>

<p>The allegations facing Hunter Biden stem from an October 2018 incident between Hunter Biden and Hallie Biden, the wife of Hunter Biden’s deceased brother, Beau Biden. Hunter Biden <a href="https://www.syracuse.com/us-news/2019/11/hunter-biden-fathered-child-with-woman-while-dating-brothers-widow-dna-test-reveals.html">dated</a> his brother’s widow and later <a href="https://pagesix.com/2020/03/11/hunter-biden-and-former-stripper-reach-deal-in-child-support-case/">fathered</a> a child with a stripper while he was living with Hallie Biden.</p>
<p>Hallie Biden allegedly took Hunter Biden’s gun and threw it in a trash can behind a grocery store, which prompted an investigation from law enforcement officials who were concerned because the trash can was close to a high school. Hallie Biden later returned to retrieve the firearm only to discover it was missing.</p>
<p>“Secret Service agents approached the owner of the store where Hunter bought the gun and asked to take the paperwork involving the sale, according to two people, one of whom has firsthand knowledge of the episode and the other was briefed by a Secret Service agent after the fact,” Politico <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2021/03/25/sources-secret-service-inserted-itself-into-case-of-hunter-bidens-gun-477879">reported</a>. “The gun store owner refused to supply the paperwork, suspecting that the Secret Service officers wanted to hide Hunter’s ownership of the missing gun in case it were to be involved in a crime, the two people said. The owner, Ron Palmieri, later turned over the papers to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, which oversees federal gun laws.”</p>
<p>The report notes that the Secret Service agents at the agency’s offices in Wilmington, Delaware, would unofficially help manage Joe Biden’s security and that the agency does not have any official record of incident.</p>
<p>The report added:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>POLITICO obtained copies of the Firearms Transaction Record and a receipt for the gun dated Oct. 12, 2018.</em></p>
<p><em>Hunter responded “no” to a question on the transaction record that asks, “Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance?” Five years earlier, he had been discharged from the Navy Reserve after testing positive for cocaine, and he and family members have spoken about his history of drug use.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Lying on an ATF Form 4473 is a <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2018/09/11/lying-buy-gun-fear-not-feds/">felony</a> that can carry a 10-year prison sentence with a $250,000 fine. The report comes as Joe Biden has demanded that Congress enact tougher gun laws.</p>
<p>Hallie Biden told Hunter Biden what she did, at which point he told her to retrieve the firearm. When she returned to the store to get the firearm out of the trash, it was missing. The Delaware State Police and the FBI responded to the scene to investigate and questioned Hunter Biden. A copy of the police report said that Hunter Biden “became very agitated” when he was asked if the firearm had been used to commit a crime.</p>
<p>When Hunter Biden was asked if he was doing drugs or drinking, Hunter Biden responded by saying that Hallie Biden was concerned about him being mentally unstable, saying that she was concerned that he was going to commit suicide.</p>
