Biden Insists on a Ban on Offensive Weapons

President Joe Biden has said the United States must ban offensive weapons to tackle the "carnage" of gun violence.

In a White House speech to the nation, Biden said too many places in America have become killing fields.

He said that if Congress could not ban such weapons, it should try to raise the age of purchase from 18 to 21.
