Oh, goodie: More self-defense advice from Joe Biden

Feb. 28, 2013 8:52am Meredith Jessup

Thanks to Joe Biden, I’m now imagining horrific scenes of gunned-down Johovah’s Witnesses, mailmen dressed like riot police and maimed Girl Scouts with their delicious cookies strewn across a bloodied front porch.

If, by chance, you weren’t comfortable with his initial advice to fire off some randomly aimed shotgun blasts from your porch to ward off intruders, Vice President Joe Biden is back with more helpful self-defense advice.

In an interview with Field & Stream magazine, Biden has again argued that people should arm themselves with a shotgun and just fire at would-be murderers/rapists/thieves… through the front door:

Well, the way in which we measure it is—I think most scholars would say—is that as long as you have a weapon sufficient to be able to provide your self-defense,” Biden said. “I did one of these town-hall meetings on the Internet and one guy said, “Well, what happens when the end days come? What happens when there’s the earthquake? I live in California, and I have to protect myself.”

I said, “Well, you know, my shotgun will do better for you than your AR-15, because you want to keep someone away from your house, just fire the shotgun through the door.” Most people can handle a shotgun a hell of a lot better than they can a semiautomatic weapon in terms of both their aim and in terms of their ability to deter people coming. We can argue whether that’s true or not, but it is no argument that, for example, a shotgun could do the same job of protecting you. Now, granted, you can come back and say, “Well, a machine gun could do a better job of protecting me.” No one’s arguing we should make machine guns legal.

“Just fire the shotgun through the door“?? Dear Lord.

Someone please, make it stop. Make Joe Biden stop. The White House needs to put a sandwich board on this guy with a strongly worded disclaimer: **Warning: Do not attempt to do anything you’re about to hear at home.**

In CONTROL, Glenn Beck presents a passionate, fact-based case for guns that reveals why gun control isn’t really about controlling guns at all; it’s about controlling us. Find out more HERE.

How can people support this man? He obviously has no regards for the law. His “advice” he has given to the people will land them in jail. Maybe that’s what he wants. More headlines of illegal use of guns!

This guy couldn’t fight his way out of a wet paper bag. Maybe someone that’s dumb enough to listen to him will try this crap, get hurt and sue him for everything he’s got. Democrats that have no clue about guns always seem to be experts on guns. Biden knows less about firearms than Ted Kennedy knew about driving and sobriety. Every time he talks, he places his incompetence into clear view….

I would like to think that no one would be stupid enough to listen to Joe Biden give gun advice, and as much as I hate to say it, someone stupider than Joe Biden was listening to Joe Biden and eventually some very unlucky person is going to cross paths with them.

Best advice: Never, Never, Ever do anything Joe says. Do the opposite! I swear he just makes shitake up.
