President Joe Biden is reportedly considering "Every tool" at his disposal to crack down on Second Amendment rights as left-wing activists are pushing him to deal with the issue of gun violence by declaring a national emergency and using executive orders.
A White House official told Politico that Biden was considering "Every tool at our disposal, including executive actions" to crack down on the Second Amendment.
Some gun control activists "Are urging the administration to begin disbursing money to 40 cities across the country plagued by gun violence through discretionary agency grants or by declaring a national emergency," the report added.
The push from Biden comes as gun sales have surged to record highs over the last year, spurred in part by the coronavirus pandemic, race riots following George Floyd's death, and the push by some Democrats to "Defund the police." January was the third-highest recorded monthly in U.S. history for gun sales.
This does not come close to accounting for Americans' current demand for guns because many manufacturers are completely sold out of firearms, especially the types of firearms the Biden administration wants to crack down on.
Alan Gottlieb, the founder of the Second Amendment Foundation, warned in a recent interview that Biden has launched a "Four-prong" attack against the Second Amendment.
"Second is banning of assault weapons and then defining assault weapons as almost any semi-automatic firearm. Third is banning magazines that hold more than 10 rounds, you know, again, hurts people twice for self defense in our country, and then attacking the firearms industry so that any criminal that goes out and misuses a gun, the gun manufacturer can be sued for it, it's going to put the industry out of business and nobody can buy a gun."
