Joe Biden: A Double-Barreled Shotgun is Better for Self-Defense Than an AR

More evidence that the civilian disarmament movement is fixing to shelve Senator Feinstein’s Assault Weapons Ban 2013 and “settle” for a bill limiting ammunition magazine capacity.

While Joe Biden’s not completely wrong in his choice of post-SHTF firearms, he’s not right about accuracy and doesn’t have the capacity to understand the advantages of capacity.

In fact, surprise! Joe Biden doesn’t know much about firearms. Or self-defense. Or criminals. Or much of anything, really.

  1. I was kind of disappointed by that particular criticism as well, Rob. I know exactly what you mean. I spent 28 years being in that sort of, “it won’t happen to me,” denial, but I had the same sort of coming-of-age just recently myself. It is tricky for me to talk about with friends and family as well because it’s so easy to be misconstrued as equating your 1911 for your manhood, when it’s in truth more about accepting responsibility than it is about acquiring power.
