Why Does Joe Biden Keep Lying About People Owning

When the President of the United States of America has to preface his alleged support of the 2nd Amendment with the words, "I know this might sound bizarre," clearly, he doesn't support it.

I don't know why Joe Biden keeps repeating this stupid statement that you couldn't own a cannon when the Second Amendment was passed. Especially considering how many times it has been fact-checked as false, he still keeps saying it.

The founding fathers wrote the Amendment because they wanted us to be able to defend against a tyrannical government; why would they write the Second Amendment and then limit the people to old, outdated arms?

When the 2nd Amendment was passed, there were no federal laws about the type of gun you could own, and no states limited the kind of gun you could own.

Article 1, Section 8, Clause 11 of our constitution gives congress the power to "Grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal," which were special waivers that allowed private individuals to act as pirates on behalf of the US against countries engaged in war with it.

Individuals who were given these waivers and owned warships obviously also obtained cannons for use in battle.

Joe Biden believes the 2nd Amendment gives us the right to own arms.

The Second Amendment didn't say you can ban us from owning certain guns because you think we shouldn't have them.

When the Second Amendment was passed, the citizens had access to the most modern rifles available, and right now, AR-15s are the most modern semi-auto rifle in our time.

Joe Biden has been making this stupid cannon argument for years and every year, it gets debunked, and he still keeps saying it.

The Second Amendment doesn't give the right to keep and bear arms; it protects it as a natural right.

We are responsible for allowing this right to be infringed, but the more people who know the truth about the Second Amendment, the better protected the Second Amendment will be.

Speaking of Cannons, the shirt I'm wearing is the original design where in 1835 in Texas, soon after a weapons confiscation request, the ladies of the settlement hastily made a flag to fly over a cannon being requested to be confiscated.

The flag featured a black cannon in the center, the words "Come and take it" below, and one Star above the requested weapon to be confiscated, representing the Lone Star State.
