WATCH: Kamala Utilizes Philly Shooting To Promote Her Gun Control Plan

It's no secret that Democrats, particularly those who are running for president, want to enact strict gun control laws. They've each come up with their own "plans" that with supposedly curb mass shootings and end gun violence. California Sen. Kamala Harris came out in full force back in April, saying if elected president, she would give Congress 100 days to "get their act together and have the courage to pass gun safety laws" or she would use executive action to make her proposal a reality.

Apparently Kamala believes in her plan so much that she believes it would have stopped Wednesday's shooting against police in Philadelphia.

"When will it stop, right?" Harris asked CNN's Wolf Blitzer. "Part of my focus on what we need to do around smart gun safety laws is we have to have more enforcement around gun dealers. Wolf, 90 percent of the guns that are associated with crime are sold by just five percent of the gun dealers in the United States and so, among many plans that I have, both in the form of executive action and legislation, one of them is to put more resources into the ATF and take licenses away from gun dealers who violate the law."

Aren’t there something like 20,000 gun laws currently on the books nationwide? I hate these people. Molon Labe.

Yes, there are literally thousands of gun control laws on the books, federal, state, and local laws on the subject.

I’ve heard so often the question, what new gun control law would have stopped a massacre? What new law would have stopped these latest shootings?

I heard she was on CNN yesterday as the event was happening.

It was still happening, and we had few facts, she had no knowledge of the details of what was going down, but launched like a parrot into the gun control mode. These politicians are just absurd with their need to shoot off their mouth when they don’t even know what the heck is happening.

Just merely ‘jumping the gun’. So to speak.

Control is needed, just not gun control.

No new criminal control laws. They never propose any criminal control.

“They never propose any criminal control.”

That is because they really only want to disarm us so that we need them to protect us. Democrats want control, and they sure are mad they didn’t get it in ‘16.

There is no doubt that is true. I’ve been watching them pursue the same agenda for 40 years (which began long before that) to disarm law abiding citizens not criminals.

She might just pay attention to the demographics of these lawless folks.

There are record gun murders in Tijuana where guns are almost completely outlawed except for the police and army. I'm sure the thugs and Philly and elsewhere will still be able to find guns somewhere if they are outlawed.

But then, taking guns out of the hands of homicidal criminals isn't the point of the proposed laws, is it? The real point is taking the guns out of the hands of law-abiding citizens so that the homicidal criminal class of Kamala Harris and her ilk can rule and pillage the unarmed sheep in safety.

Yeah, Kamala, sure.

This black a$$ criminal had a police record as long as the Mississippi River, is a drug dealer AND a career criminal.

And now she wants to take away the rights of citizens to own firearms because of this career criminal in Filthadelphia?

Go away, Harris, you worthless California moron!

Kamala seeks to Africanize America

She is an American enemy representing the socialist nation that is California

Apologies to Freepers that have homes in California

“she would use executive action to make her proposal a reality”

She’s going to have to do more than write something on a piece of paper to make her dream of gun confiscation a reality.
