Biden called for even more gun control, but police say Sacramento mass shooting was result of a gang firefight

In the immediate aftermath of a mass shooting in Sacramento, California, that killed six and injured 15, President Joe Biden echoed a familiar sentiment among Democrats: "We must do more than mourn; we must act.

Of course, Biden was specifically calling for further restrictions on Americans' second amendment rights as an answer to the country's ongoing surge in violent crime.

"We also continue to call on Congress to act," the president said in a statement. "Ban ghost guns. Require background checks for all gun sales. Ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. Repeal gun manufacturers’ immunity from liability."

But new revelations from law enforcement quickly discredited Democrats' broad claims that gun regulations would have prevented the deadly incident. Instead, it appeared that, if anything, a tougher stance from law enforcement was due.
