Biden Declares, ‘No amendment to Constitution is absolute’ as He Rolls Out Gun Measures; ‘We will NOT allow this’: Gov. Abbott Promises Biden a Texas-Sized Fight Over Firearms ‘power grab’, and related stories

Biden declares, ‘No amendment to Constitution is absolute’ as he rolls out gun measures:

President Biden on Thursday announced a slew of new gun control measures after a recent pair of high-profile mass shootings, and insisted the Second Amendment doesn’t grant an absolute right to own guns.

Biden presented the executive actions in the Rose Garden, joined by Attorney General Merrick Garland and Vice President Kamala Harris.

“No amendment to the Constitution is absolute,” Biden maintained, pointing to the famous Supreme Court ruling that you can’t yell fire in a crowded theater as part of the First Amendment’s free speech clause.

“You can’t yell … ‘fire’ in a crowded movie theater and call it freedom of speech. From the very beginning, you couldn’t own any weapon you wanted to own. From the very beginning that the Second Amendment existed, certain people weren’t allowed to have weapons. So the idea is just bizarre to suggest that some of the things we’re recommending are contrary to the Constitution,” he said. —>READ MORE HERE
