NANTUCKET ISLAND, MASSACHUSETTS: US President Joe Biden termed the sales of semi-automatic guns as "sick." Biden asserted a ban on assault weapons following mass shootings at a Chesapeake, Virginia Walmart, and Club Q massacre. He said, “The idea that we’re still allowing semi-automatic guns to be bought is sick. It’s just sick. It has no, no social redemptive value. Zero. No. There’s no solitary reason for it except profit for the gun manufacturers."

He spoke to the media as he stopped at the Nantucket Fire Department to bring first responders Thanksgiving pumpkin pie. The President also added, "By the way, I’m going to get an assault weapons ban. Before this is over, I’m going to get that again. Not a joke, and watch. I’m going to try and get rid of assault weapons,” reported CNBC.
