Biden Would Turn the American Military On the Population. Why Would Anyone Vote For This Guy

So, our Strategist-In-Chief is at it again, threatening the population with missiles raining down on us from F-15 jet fighters. If we are thinking we might have to go to war with China, we are indeed doomed. You can find it at Townhall.com by Sarah Arnold in a post entitled Biden Claims Americans Would Need A Lot More Than A Gun To Fight The Government.

President Joe Biden once again threatened the constitutional right to own a gun, mocking Second Amendment supporters while discussing violence in the U.S.
While speaking at a fundraising event in California, Biden suggested that the Second Amendment is useless because the U.S. government could crush Americans, saying they would "need an F-16" to take it down.

It is disturbing that the President of the United States thinks it is acceptable to turn the full might of the U.S. military on the men, women and children of the United States. The moment the government uses F-15s, tanks and other military gear and tactics against patriots, the government will lose the ability to govern. It will absolutely be seen by the whole world as the far left fascist criminals they are. But he also doesn't realize that such a feat requires massive numbers of troops because Americans forced to fight their government would not do so as an army but using small team guerilla tactics that strike and then diappear into the population.

But as they say on TV commercials, there is more! Biden claims that the Second Amendment did not permit citizens to own canons. Absolutely untrue. People could and did own canon and the most technologically advanced weapons available at the time of the founding. While I admit that owning an artillery piece would be for the wealthy only, still the Second Amendment says you can keep and bear any type of weapon that can be aimed. So no bombs or grenades. So contrary to what Biden claims, any of the small arms carried by the soldiers, marines, sailors and airmen of the armed forces can be owned and carried by civilians. Indeed that was the idea, that every man be armed (founder George Mason)  So machine guns, true assault weapons, not merely AR-15s, mortars, artillery, even shoulder fired rockets could all be owned.  But the great majority of people would be satisfied with pistols, revolvers, and standard rifles available today.  

As for the idea of prohibited persons, there were few prohibitions on citizens owning weapons. Of course prisoners were disarmed, but one usually regained the right once one served his time. While I don't think making violent felons prohibited persons, I think that nonviolent offenders should have their right to arms restored.

Again in 2021, Biden claimed that from day one, the Second Amendment "limited the type of people who could own a gun and what type of weapon you could own. You couldn't buy a canon."
However, the president's statements are false.
According to the Second Amendment, Americans are not limited to who can "keep and bear arms" or what kind of firearms people can keep and bear.
Update: I thought I was the only one who got a bit miffed about Biden's threat to sic F-16s on us. But I was wrong. David Harsanyi at The Federalist has an article blasting Biden and his speech entitled Noted Constutional Scholar Joe Biden Explains The Second Amendment.
Moreover, contending, as the president does, that your weapon is basically useless because the state can simply scramble F-16s and murder you and everyone you love doesn’t really convey the message he thinks it does. What it tells me is that Biden might be a sociopath and we all need tanks.
Yes, our President is not merely a demented old fool, he is also crazy.
