Following the shooting on Monday at Abundant Life Christian School in Wisconsin, Joe Biden is issuing a renewed call for greater gun control.
This news comes mere weeks after Joe Biden pardoned his son Hunter for, among other things, gun crime. Hunter lied on a federal firearms application and then had his girlfriend dispose of the gun in a gas station trash can near a school, another crime.
This is a man with absolutely zero shame.
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports:
Biden calls for tougher gun-control laws after Madison, Wisconsin, school shooting at Abundant Life Christian School
Responding to a deadly school shooting in Madison, President Joe Biden called on Congress to pass universal background checks, a national red flag law and a ban on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines.
Three people are dead, including a suspected juvenile shooter, and six others were injured in the shooting at Abundant Life Christian School.
“We need Congress to act. Now. From Newtown to Uvalde, Parkland to Madison, to so many other shootings that don’t receive attention — it is unacceptable that we are unable to protect our children from this scourge of gun violence. We cannot continue to accept it as normal,” Biden said in a statement.
“Every child deserves to feel safe in their classroom. Students across our country should be learning how to read and write – not having to learn how to duck and cover.”
The crime was horrific and committed by a criminal. Blame for it cannot be laid at the feet of law abiding gun owners.

On a related note, did you notice that no one on the left pushed for gun control after the shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson? Actress Justine Bateman made this point.
The murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was the first time I can remember where a shooting wasn’t immediately followed by a demand for gun control.

What was different about that particular shooting?
