As Bank Crisis Looms, Biden's Aggressive Focus On Firearms Is Suspicious

Joe Biden has always been hostile to constitutional gun rights, but in
the past week his administration has gone into an obsessive fervor,
calling for more restrictions on sales, banning high capacity
magazines and banning “assault weapons.”  Is there a reason for his
sudden focus on taking effective firearms from Americans despite the
multitude of more important issues facing the nation today?

Much of the firearms related discussion in the corporate media has
revolved around Biden's recent executive order calling for individuals
in the business of selling guns to be federally licensed and to check
the backgrounds of buyers. Under the order, the Attorney General
Merrick Garland will “use his discretion” to ensure gun sellers
"willfully violating the law" and those unaware of background
requirements become compliant.

The order makes little sense considering there are already multiple
laws in place that require firearms dealers to commit to background
checks before a buyer can purchase any weapon.  Of course, many people
on the political left are illiterate when it comes to firearms related
restrictions, and some actually do naively think that a customer can
easily walk into a gun store, grab a pistol or rifle off a shelf, and
walk out.

Is Biden's executive action just a ploy for his ignorant political
base as he pretends to implement anti-gun measures while really doing
nothing?  Or, is something else at play?

The order does not seem to be an effort to prevent private firearms
sales or gun show sales, which are legal in some states, though there
is talk of “universal background checks” in the future.  Executive
orders have no constitutional standing in any case, and they certainly
have no bearing on state laws, but is Biden seeking to change that?

The unilateral action also outlines steps to promote Red Flag laws,
which are an attempt by gun grabbers to institute backdoor
confiscation.  Red Flag laws, if enforced widely, would allow various
state and federal agencies to target individuals designated as
“potentially dangerous” or mentally unstable and take their firearms
without due process.  It is a guilty-until-proven-innocent policy
based on hearsay rather than legal evidence.



However, even Biden's Red Flag efforts are more about lip service than
tangible results that will make anti-gun proponents happy.  The real
threat may be in an underlying attempt to normalize gun related
executive orders as a means to sidestep checks and balances entirely,
but that would require a national emergency as a rationale.

Enter the ever escalating economic crisis...

Is it merely a coincidence that Biden's amplification of anti-gun
propaganda has been timed almost exactly with the rising threat of a
systemic credit collapse within the banking sector?  It's not just SVB
and Signature Bank that signal a problem today, it's also Credit
Suisse – A massive bank with over $700 billion in asset exposure.  It
would appear that a credit crisis is swiftly developing, and as we all
know, establishment elites “never let a good crisis go to waste.”

The majority of the Biden Admin's rhetoric on social media has not
been about background checks, but the outright banning of
semi-automatic, high capacity rifles (which are involved in less than
3% of all firearms related murders).  By extension, Biden has
consistently mentioned the need to circumvent Congress to enforce more
gun control, and he seems to be test-piloting the notion of executive
orders to do it.

    It's time for Congress to ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines.

    I led the fight to ban them in 1994, and we can do it again.

It is no secret that establishment politicians often ignore handgun
related crime in favor of far less used “military-style” rifles, but
why?  One might suggest that it is the proliferation of these firearms
in the hands of the citizenry that has prevented numerous attempts to
undermine other constitutional protections.  Many believe that Biden's
abandonment of perpetual pandemic lockdowns and vaccine passports was
directly related to red state resistance and a large number of armed
Americans refusing to comply.

Medical authoritarianism in the name of covid failed partly because of
the 2nd Amendment.  With the economic crisis comes another possible
window to centralize power and degrade the Bill of Rights further, but
not if the populace has the capacity to rebel.

Is the establishment realizing they will have to take our guns before
they can accomplish any other objectives?  And, are they preparing to
use a bank crash they know is coming as a rationale or smokescreen for
confiscation?  With every economic plunge comes an inevitable spike in
crime, not to mention public fear.  The-powers-that-be might view this
as a favorable development in their quest for American disarmament.
