NRA Lobbying Arm: 'If Biden Were Serious about Real Solutions to Violent Crime, Perhaps He Should Take a Look at Sentencing Reform'

As he has done many times before, President Joe Biden on Monday blamed guns (“ghost guns” this time) for rising crime in the United States.

He announced a crackdown on “do-it-yourself” kits that allow people to assemble guns without serial numbers — as if the so-called “ghost guns” are driving the recent crime wave.

But completely missing from Biden’s speech was any mention of soft-on-crime prosecutors who release criminals to offend again. (Read the “fairness and safety” memo issued in January by New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who declared his “commitment to making incarceration a matter of last resort.”)
