Self-proclaimed gun proprietor and Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris revealed on 60 Minutes on Sunday that the gun she claims to personal is a Glock and that she’s had it a very long time.
The revelation got here as she insinuated it ought to have stunned no person not too long ago when she stated she was a gun proprietor.
“That was not the primary time I’ve actually talked about it,” she stated, shaking her finger at host Invoice Whitaker. “That’s not the primary time I talked about it.”
The truth that the anti-gun presidential candidate may personal any firearm as she regularly tries to additional prohibit Second Modification rights is sheer hypocrisy. However what’s much more hypocritical is that she owns a Glock. Right here’s why.
First, Glock pistols are semi-automatic—you recognize, they hearth a spherical each time you pull the set off. Nonetheless, Kamala, her boss President Joe Biden and different anti-gun advocates wish to fudge slightly from time to time and say that semi-auto pistols are literally full-auto and can be utilized to “spray bullets.” Semi-auto rifles utilizing the identical mechanism are on their checklist to ban and confiscate.
However that’s not the one factor. Practically each Glock mannequin made is designed to simply accept these evil “high-capacity” magazines Harris and Biden are so eager on banning. If she actually does personal a Glock, I’m wondering if she’d wish to reveal what the capability of her journal is.
Moreover, what proper does Kamala need to personal a gun anyway. In court docket filings in the course of the Heller case, Harris signed on to paperwork stating that the Second Modification doesn’t defend a person proper, however solely protects those that are in a militia. If she’s not in some militia that we haven’t heard about, she’s a doubly huge hypocrite for proudly owning a firearm.
Moreover, the Biden-Harris administration’s White Home Workplace of Gun Violence Prevention not too long ago collaborated with anti-gun billionaire Michael Bloomberg’s Everytown for Gun Security and the Metropolis of Chicago to focus on Glock Inc. in a frivolous lawsuit alleging the corporate is chargeable for the felony misuse of firearms when criminals unlawfully connect an unlawful machine to Glock handguns to transform them to full-auto. In that scenario, White Home officers met privately with Glock representatives to demand a design alteration to their handguns—the exact same type of pistol the vice chairman claims to personal.
When Kentucky U.S. Rep. James Comer, head of the Home Oversight Committee despatched questions concerning the matter on June 14 demanding solutions, administration officers refused to reply them. As an alternative, White Home Deputy counsel Rachel Cotton responded by accusing Comer of shilling for the gun foyer.
Comer’s response to the counter accusation was quick and to the purpose.
“The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the U.S. Home of Representatives and has broad authority to research ‘any matter’ at ‘any time’ below Home Rule X,” Comer reminded Cotton. “The White Home ought to spend extra time complying with Committee requests, and fewer time obstructing congressional investigations into potential misconduct and misuse of workplace by White Home officers.”
Final however not least, let’s discuss California’s arguably unlawful handgun roster. In California, residents can solely buy handguns which have been licensed by the state, and the quantity is dwindling yr by yr.
Apparently, many Glock pistols aren’t on that handgun roster so thereby unlawful for California residents to personal. Gen 3 Glocks and beneath had been grandfathered in as they had been bought earlier than the regulation was handed. However Gen 4 and 5 can’t be bought within the state. If she purchased her alleged Glock new since 2009, it’s most likely unlawful for regular residents of California to personal. Except, or course, she purchased a Gen 3 or earlier at a gun present!
That brings us to Kamala’s greatest Glock hypocrisy of all. Harris beforehand supported handgun bans in each San Francisco, the place she started her political profession and served as district lawyer between 2004 and 2011, and Washington, D.C., the place she has served in federal workplace since 2017. Are you able to say, “Weapons for me, however not for thee”?
Ultimately, the vice chairman’s Glock debacle is simply one more reason no gun proprietor ought to even take into consideration voting for her on Election Day.
