Kamala Harris Renews Pledge to Bypass Congress with Executive Gun Control
2019-07-16
[BREITBART] Kámala Harris
Former Oakland mayor Willie Brown's former mistress, now a senatrix from California and 2020 Dem presidential hopeful, indistinguishable from the others...
used a July 13, 2019, tweet to renew her pledge to bypass Congress and enact executive gun control.

Harris tweeted: "Gun violence is the leading cause of death for young Black men in America. We must stop this. When president, I will take executive action to ensure guns do not fall into the wrong hands."
Enquirying minds want to know if her hands were the right ones to control Willy's gun... so the next song for her..

Executive gun control has been a staple of Harris’ campaign for the Democrat presidential nomination.

On April 22, 2019, Breitbart News reported Harris’ plan to give Congress 100 days to pass new gun controls if she wins the White House. Should Congress fail to act, Harris made clear she would simply use executive orders to achieve the gun control she desires.

To date Harris has pledged executive action to require private gun sellers to conduct background checks on their sales, to direct the ATF to take away the license of any gun dealer who breaks the law, and to ban runaways from buying guns.

Fugitives are already banned from buying guns but Harris is pushing a ban anyway.

Harris also promises to use executive action to block the importation of AR-15 rifles. On May 22, 2019, Breitbart News reported a National Shooting Sports Foundation report which showed that the importation of such rifles has been blocked since 1989, via ATF’s interpretation of import guidelines.

#6  I doubt she will emerge as the candidate to take on Trump. There is even a slimmer chance she will become POTUS. She will tick-off a large number of law-abiding citizens if she should start using an EO to get heavy handed with gun dictates. She would be asking for a lot of trouble. The 2nd Amend. is the fine line between tyranny and freedom. Besides she seems to have the likeabilty of HRC.

#5  Re #3: The leading cause of death for young black males is abortion.

#4  Not many AR-15 style rifles are imported. H&K, but they are high-end, not something a criminal would use unless it was stolen anyway. Most of the imported ones are AK platform and since the Ukraine situation sanctions have shifted most of that to US sourced product.

Not that I'd expect someone like Harris to know anything about that.

#2  This woman is a menace. Search "Daniel Larsen" + innocent and see the extraordinary harm she did as an incompetent and cruel abuser of her authority as prosecutor.

#1  1. Gun violence is the leading cause of death for young Black men & I will take executive action to ensure guns do not fall into the wrong hands.

The ghost of Robert Byrd smiles.

2. ban fugitives from buying guns - Already law.

3. block the importation of AR-15 rifles - "Assault" rifles imports have been banned for 30 years. Great for domestic manufacturing.

So Kamala promises an around-the-world for $20. Takes their donations and runs to her pimp.
