Fact Check: Joe Biden Says 1994 'Assault Weapons' Ban Lowered Gun Crime

28 Apr 2021 CLAIM: During his April 28, 2021, speech to Congress, President Joe Biden claimed the 1994 “assault weapons” ban lowered gun crime. VERDICT: False. The Department of Justice’s National Institute of Justice (NIJ) released a report as the federal “assault weapons” ban was about to expire, noting no reduction in gun crime that could be credited to the ban itself. The Washington Times quoted the report’s lead researcher saying, “There has been no discernible reduction in the lethality and injuriousness of gun violence.” Biden twice made his claim about the alleged effectiveness of the “assault weapons” ban. First, he referenced passing the ban in the 1990s, adding, “We beat the NRA. Mass shootings and gun violence declined.”

Joe Biden Describes Restricting Second Amendment as 'Reasonable'

President Joe Biden referred to Second Amendment restrictions as “reasonable” during his speech to Congress Wednesday evening. He said, “We’re not changing the Constitution; we’re being reasonable.” This statement followed on the heels of his contention that no amendment to the Constitution is without limits, that “‘no amendment to the Constitution is absolute.” He added, “From the very beginning, there were certain kinds of weapons that couldn’t be owned by Americans. Certain people couldn’t own those weapons, ever.” Biden did not provide any substantiation for the claim that there were “certain weapons” average Americans could not own on December 15, 1791, the day the Second Amendment and the rest of the Bill of Rights were ratified. Moreover, he did not address that when the British invaded the colonies, they found themselves facing common men who fought for freedom using muskets very much like the muskets being used against them.

Democrat Tammy Duckworth: Congress Has 'Duty to Act' on Gun Control

17 Mar 2021 Illinois Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D) is promoting an “Assault Weapons” ban and suggesting that she is doing so in order that her daughters can grow up in a country that will “protect them.” Duckworth suggested that “Congress has a duty to act” on gun control and responded to Congressional refusal to pass more gun laws by saying, “enough is enough.” She tweeted: I don’t want my daughters to have to grow up in a country that won’t protect them from firearm violence. People are dying and Congress has a duty to act. My colleagues and I introduced a ban on assault weapons.
