To begin with, this is your president. This ought to be one of the most shameful things ever said by a sitting president.
"Do you have any words to the victims of the hurricane?"
BIDEN: "We've given everything that we have."
"Are there any more resources the federal government could be giving them?"

“You don’t need an AR-15, it’s harder to aim, it’s harder to use,” he stressed.
Biden indicated that he has given his own wife the same advice. “I said, ‘Jill, if there’s ever a problem, just walk out on the balcony here, put that double-barreled shotgun and fire two blasts outside the house,’” he said, and urged viewers, in closing, “Buy a shotgun, buy a shotgun!”
Right. Hand a double-barrel (I assume, 12 gauge) shotgun to a potentially small frame woman, tell her to shoot both barrels into the air, wasting her shots and leaving her defenseless, and dispense with actually aiming a weapon.
My dumb-ass dog is smarter than him. Seriously. Folks, do … not … ever … take an approach like this in situations of threat to your person. Ever. There are so many things wrong with this it’s hard to know where to begin. First of all, do not ever leave yourself no means of egress if you are under threat, and do not ever approach the person who is threatening you. In Castle-doctrine states you don’t have to retreat in your own home, but that’s different than recommending that someone walk out of their home.
Second, the choice of weapons should be up to the shooter, but a 12 gauge shotgun has some kick, and she may not be able to handle it. The 5.56 mm round has much less recoil, aided by the buffer spring in the AR which absorbs much of the recoil. Finally, no self defense expert recommends warning shots. In fact, forget self defense experts. No serious person anywhere recommends warning shots.
Just please. Seriously. Do not ever do what he is recommending. He’s just crazy uncle Joe being himself.
