One day after Biden administration Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy used his bully pulpit to push gun control as a “public health” issue, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms is calling on CNN to question President Joe Biden about his gun ban agenda during Thursday’s presidential debate.
“Since Joe Biden first acknowledged during a CNN Townhall appearance in July 2021 that he wants to ban the sale of the most popular rifles in America and commonly-owned 9mm pistols,” noted CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb, “it would be appropriate for CNN debate moderators Jake Tapper and Dana Bash to quiz the president about his gun prohibition agenda.”
The 90-minute presidential debate airs Thursday evening at 9 p.m. Eastern/6 p.m. Pacific. Various media outlets are suggesting it could have a huge national audience. By calling on CNN now, the network has plenty of time to formulate the questions Tapper and Bash need to ask. The public deserves to know how far the president plans to push his gun ban crusade, Gottlieb said.
“Joe Biden has been accused of weaponizing federal agencies against firearms dealers and gun owners,” Gottlieb stated. “The Supreme Court has affirmed three times that the Second Amendment protects an individual right to keep and bear arms, and right now, 29 states have adopted laws allowing people to carry firearms in public without permits or licenses. Biden should be quizzed about his gun control stance on live television, where he won’t be fed talking points by his advisors.
“If Biden wanted to restrict the First Amendment like he is trying to restrict the Second Amendment,” he added, “you can bet CNN and every other network and newspaper in the country would be justifiably lining up to demand answers.
“Rights protected by the Second Amendment are no less important than those protected by the First,” Gottlieb said. “The Bill of Rights is an all-or-nothing proposition which limits the power of government. It is not just a menu from which we can pick and choose those rights we agree with. A threat to one right is a threat to all rights. We’re calling on CNN to question Joe Biden vigorously and not allow him to just give lip service to the Second Amendment because everything he’s done for the past 50 years suggests he wants to turn the right to keep and bear arms into a regulated privilege.”
Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms
With more than 650,000 members and supporters nationwide, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (www.ccrkba.org) is one of the nation’s premier gun rights organizations. As a non-profit organization, the Citizens Committee is dedicated to preserving firearms freedoms through active lobbying of elected officials and facilitating grass-roots organization of gun rights activists in local communities throughout the United States.
Dementia Joe will spew the same nonsense lies about cannons and citizens needing F15’s and nukes to take on his tyrannical gov. Dumb old geezer hasn’t got a clue and is totally ignorant of the facts of war, especially civil war and guerilla warfare. At the same time he claims citizens could not defend themselves against government, he also claims the government was almost overthrown by unarmed protesters. Man needs more than a diaper change, and belongs in prison for fraudulently assuming the presidency.
Better get those questions in as soon as you can so they have time to slip them to uncle Joe so he knows how to answer them. Oh, I forgot, he will have an implant in his ears to get the answers. I almost missed it.
NO, no wire going down the inside of the jacket, and the dumb asses used a white color wire. LMAO
Fat chance of any honest questions.
Jake Tapper;
“Mr Trump, share your plan to bring peace to the middle east in detail, including budgets and timetable. You have 60 seconds.”
“Mr. Biden, What’s your favorite color. Take as much time as you need.”
The demoRATs don’t need to restrict the First Amendment because they have the full support of almost all media outlets to surreptitiously do that for them. “Wink, wink, nod, nod…”
Those CNN ‘darlings’ will never ask a question that might negatively impact a democRAT candidate, especially Slo CCP Traitor Joe.
Bumbling mumbling Blinky the clown , clowned himself alot in the debate last night . Trump stomped the idiot in my opinion.
FJB
Trump 2024
So Dopey Joey’s handlers want him to ban the nine mm? Fine. We’ll just relabel that round.Call it the .380 Long.
I believe the very first question the lying POS should answere should be about the laptop he lied about and the 51 lying piles of shit that deceived the American people to steal the 2020 election
First, we here (I must assume) are pro gun people, it is juvenile to expect CNN (anti-gun) to question biden on any 2A issue. Second , the current administration HAS gone off the deep end in 1A issues but only against conservative outlets (certainly NOT CNN). Don’t expect a straight approach from a leftist entity.
Unindicted future felon Joseph Biden is, unfortunately, pResident of the U.S. and as such he needs to be held to the highest standard in the debate tonight. We need none of this ‘it will be a miracle if he can even stand up for 90 minutes’. It may be true but there can be no lowered bar, threshold, or expectations while he holds office.
