BIDEN: "The Second Amendment from the day it was passed limited the type of people who could own a gun and what type of weapon you could own. You couldn’t buy a cannon — those who say the blood of patriots and all this stuff about how we’re going to have to move against the government. Well, the [inaudible] of liberty is not one with the blood of patriots. What’s happened is that there have never been — if you think you need to have weapons to take on the government, you need F-15s or maybe some nuclear weapons.
