Biden unveils strategy to stop gun crime as summer violence spikes

President Joe Biden on Wednesday announced a range of actions targeting rising gun violence, according to the White House, as homicide rates jump heading into the summer months — and Republicans blame him for it.

Biden is trying to not let a good crisis go to waste. His remarks about people who want guns to protect themselves from the government are at best inapposite. Most gun crimes, as he should know, are committed no doubt by people who possess the guns illegally and involve hand guns, not AR-15s. But there is still the Senate and the Supreme Court, so this initiative, if that’s what it is, will probably not go anywhere, for which we have once again, those darn Framers to thank.
