US President, Joe Biden says it time to ban assault weapons in the United States of America.
Biden stated this in a post on his Facebook profile on Saturday.
“It’s time we ban assault weapons in this country,” he said.
National surveys estimate that about 81 million U.S. adults own a firearm.
The US congress recently proposed an Assault Weapons Ban of 2022, after a spate of mass shootings, including ones in Uvalde, Texas, and Buffalo, New York, that were perpetrated by men wielding AR-15-style rifles.
If the proposed ban scales through, It would make it illegal to manufacture, sell, transfer, import or possess semi-automatic weapons and high-capacity magazines. The U.S. previously passed an assault weapons ban in 1994, but it expired after 10 years.
