Biden uses Parkland anniversary to push for gun control

It’s been four years since a former student walked on to the campus of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida and murdered 17 people, and the White House is commemorating the anniversary of that awful day by stumping for Congress to impose new gun control laws and largely ignoring the victims, survivors, and those families who don’t believe that more gun laws are the answer to stopping these types of attacks.

The Associated Press reported on an advance copy of Biden’s prepared remarks today, and based on the excerpts they released, Biden’s supposed strength as empathizer-in-chief is nowhere to be seen, with the White House choosing instead to highlight how the murderssupposedly reinvigorated the gun control movement.
