“Down in Philadelphia and New York, areas I know well, like up here, you’d see a truck pull up, pull to the curb and selling weapons, selling guns, selling AR-15s.”
- President Joe Biden
I paused over his comment....indicating 'not-drug-dealers-but-gun-dealers'.
I think if you did ask all the drug dealers in the Philly area....if they handled guns...about a quarter of them know some guy who has stolen pistols (some of them probably in marginal shape and not to be trusted in firing).
If I were this stupid to buy such a weapon....not maintained, for me personally....I simply wouldn't trust it.
In my Air Force years, some trainer ran a short slide presentation of guns that misfired in some way....harming the shooter. It put the fear of God into me.....you can only trust weapons that are maintained. The idea of going to some drug-dealer and buying from the back of a 1988 Chevy....to buy any gun....just ain't going to happen.
This brought me to wondering...do the police in NYC or Philly even believe this idea of mass gun sales? Are they the ones who hyped Biden to say this, or is this a misinformation campaign to make you imagine of such a situation?
