President Joe Biden can always be counted on to call for gun control in the wake of pretty much any high-profile shooting. He didn't after the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, amazingly enough, but he did after the shooting at Abundant Life Christian School in Madison, Wisconsin.

Unsurprisingly, he immediately faced backlash. After all, this is a man calling for more gun control just a short time after pardoning his son for gun charges he was convicted of by a jury of his peers.

A lot of people took to social media to blast the president.

Now, it's the Citizen's Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms turn to blast him, but mostly for the stupidity of his comments on the surface, via a press release.

The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms condemns President Joe Biden’s crass exploitation of Monday’s tragic school shooting incident at a private Christian school in Madison, Wisconsin, in an effort to push his tired—and in this case irrelevant, past its expiration date—gun ban agenda.

“With just over one month remaining in his disastrous term,” said CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb, “Joe Biden just couldn’t restrain himself from once again rolling out his one-size-fits-all gun control wish list in his statement from the White House. Demanding that Congress quickly pass universal background check (registration) legislation and ban so-called ‘assault weapons’ and ‘high-capacity magazines’ in response to this terrible crime is one of the stupidest, but expected reactions from a career gun prohibitionist whose history of gaffes is legendary. 

“Joe Biden knows 15-year-olds can’t legally buy handguns anywhere in this country,” Gottlieb continued, “so a call for background checks is irrelevant. Police have recovered a handgun which was used in the shooting, so calling for a ban on semiautomatic rifles and their magazines is also irrelevant and dishonest. Indeed, such demands underscore just how irrelevant Joe Biden and his gun ban agenda have become.”

There was no armed school resource officer to protect the children at Abundant Life Christian School, according to published reports.

“We join all Americans in deploring this horrible crime,” Gottlieb said, “but attempting to penalize every law-abiding citizen who owns or may someday wish to purchase a firearm will not undo the tragedy. Biden, and his fellow gun prohibitionists all know the incident in Madison would not have been prevented, even if all of the laws he now wants passed had already been in effect. It is dishonest to suggest otherwise, but, of course, honesty has hardly been the earmark of the Biden administration. 

“In the aftermath of this tragedy, common sense and cooler heads must prevail,” he observed. “Instead of shooting-from-the-lip, as Biden has done throughout his 50-plus years in politics, we look forward to working with the next administration on rational preventive measures and intelligent solutions, such as armed resource officers and improved mental health counseling, instead of spewing specious sound-bite suggestions which shift blame from the perpetrator to a constitutionally-enumerated fundamental right.”

Gottlieb focused on the comments themselves and ripped them apart, which is all for the better.

This killer shatters a lot of gun control myths. First, she was a she, and she was just 15, which means she was unable to lawfully buy a firearm. She used a handgun. Those mean calls for additional measures that only make things more difficult for law-abiding gun owners are beyond ridiculous.

Of course, Biden and his staff have to go through the motions, to make it look like they're still in charge for another month or so, but the truth is that they can't do any of the things Biden wants to do, and that's good news. We don't need gun control laws. We need to comprehend how people can be this broken, and then try to fix whatever it is that's wrong with them.

Instead, they just go through the expected motions of calling for gun control.

It's beyond ridiculous.
