SECOND AMENDMENT/GUNS/JOE BIDEN/NRA: “I’m the only one on this stage who has taken on the NRA and beat them, and beat them twice. We were able to get assault weapons off the streets and not be able to be sold for 10 years. Recent studies show that mass violence went down when that occurred.
The way to deal with those guns and those AR-15s and assault weapons that are on the street — or not on the street, that people own, is to do what we did with the National Firearms Act as it related to machine guns. You must register that weapon. You must register it. When you register it, the likelihood of it being used diminishes exponentially.”
