Vice President Joe Biden says “the Second Amendment says you can limit who can own a gun.”

In an interview with CNN’s Gloria Borger on Monday, Biden said, “people who are criminals shouldn’t have guns. People who are schizophrenic and have mental illnesses shouldn’t have guns.” (RELATED: Watch Taya Kyle Confront Obama During Town Hall Event On Guns In America [VIDEO])

The Second Amendment says on the matter, “A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.”

Biden was asked by Borger, “So does Bernie Sanders has to change position on gun manufacturers in order to have your support and you out there campaigning for him, should he be the nominee?” (RELATED: Sanders: Vermont Gun Shops Should Not Be Held Liable, But Gun Manufacturers Should Be [VIDEO])

Biden replied, “No, [what] Bernie Sanders has to do is say the Second Amendment says which he has of late, the Second Amendment says you can limit who can own a gun. That people who are criminals shouldn’t have guns. People who are schizophrenic and have mental illnesses shouldn’t have guns and he has said that.” (RELATED: ‘Lone Survivor’ Marcus Luttrell Endorses Background Checks For Gun Purchases [VIDEO])
