https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-rally-texas-buttigieg-klobuchar-endorsement n a surprise moment at the end of his Dallas rally on the eve of Super Tuesday, former Vice President Joe Biden called former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke up to the stage -- and vowed to put O'Rourke, who has said the government should forcibly seize assault rifles from Americans, in charge of gun-control efforts.
Also at the rally, Biden accepted the endorsements of onetime rivals Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar, as the Democratic party's moderate wing rallied behind Biden to challenge anti-establishment frontrunner and self-described "democratic socialist" Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt.
"Ladies and gentlemen, tomorrow, March 3, 2020, I will be casting my ballot for Joe Biden," O'Rourke announced to applause at the rally's conclusion.
O'Rourke called President Trump an "existential threat" to "free and fair elections," and urged rallygoers to view Biden as the "antithesis of Donald Trump," someone who is "decent, kind, caring, and empathetic."
Biden, taking the microphone after O'Rourke spoke, then announced, "I want to make something clear -- I'm gonna guarantee you, this is not the last you're seeing of this guy -- you're gonna take care of the gun problem with me, you're gonna be the one who leads this effort. I'm counting on you, I'm counting on you, we need you badly." O'Rourke has previously said he would like to seize all Americans' AR-15 assault rifles, promising: "(This word is unacceptable on Trapperman), yes, we're going to take your AR-15, your AK-47," at a Democratic primary debate last year, shortly before his campaign collapsed.

I don't really care what the majority says. I will not surrender my right to be armed. The majority said we ought to have Hillary for president. I don't live in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Manhattan, or Minneapolis. People in a world that don't have a clue about my world, are not going to tell me how to live. My great great great great great great great grandfather was a Virginian named John Clifton. A corporal in the Continental Army during the revolution. What kind of man would I be if I said one of the rights he risked so much to have recognized by the government, was no longer needed?

I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

We have and are going to get more laws on how, when, and where I can and do with any of my weapons. I respect the law. BUT it is my God given duty to protect my wife and family and myself and the government is not going to stop me from doing that.
I think it is odd, you can not buy any weapons until 21 year old, by the time I was 21 years old uncle Sam had been teaching me how to kill more people in more way than most people know of for 3 years.
