Biden's Persistence on Gun Safety Despite Controversial Speech Ending.

President Joe Biden has said that the US has reached a "tipping point" in the fight to strengthen America's gun laws, due to the activism of the gun violence prevention movement that has gathered increasing strength in recent years. He called for a repeal of the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, which immunises gun manufacturers from lawsuits filed by gun violence victims, and for the enactment of universal background checks before anyone can purchase high-powered rifles. Though chances of a federal assault weapons ban making it to his desk are slim to none given the composition of Congress, Mr Biden promised the gun safety advocates that he will "never stop fighting".
