Frequently Asked Questions

What did Joe Biden claim about gun safety laws in his State of the Union address?

President Biden stated that his administration passed the most sweeping gun safety law in three decades, which includes enhanced background checks for individuals aged 18-21 and red flag laws designed to disarm potentially dangerous people.

Why does Colion Noir question Biden's choice of Brandon Tsay as a hero?

Colion Noir suggests Biden's choice of Brandon Tsay, who disarmed a gunman, was strategic to avoid highlighting individuals who used firearms to stop mass shootings, as this contradicts the gun control lobby's narrative.

What are the statistics on gun violence cited by Colion Noir?

Noir cited that in 2020, rifles of all types accounted for 6,345 deaths, significantly less than the 72,242 deaths attributed to knives or 43,479 deaths from blunt objects, questioning the focus on assault weapons.

What was the impact of the 1994-2004 assault weapons ban, according to the analysis?

A study suggests the 1994-2004 assault weapons ban had limited success, with benefits potentially outweighed by the increased use of non-banned semi-automatic firearms with large capacity magazines, which are more frequently used in crimes.
