President Biden referenced the recent shooting at Iowa’s Perry High School during a speech at Mother Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina.
Despite this, he advocated for gun control measures that would not have prevented the shooting, which was carried out by a 17-year-old armed with a pump shotgun and a small caliber handgun.
The proposed measures, including an “assault weapons” ban and universal background checks, would not have applied to the weapons used in the shooting. (Trending: Hunter Biden’s Art Scheme Exposed By GOP Probe)
