During her one hour town hall on CNN, Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) was asked about what she would do to end school shootings.

"I'm sure that there are many students here who, while you were high school, even middle school, that you had to participate in a drill, right? Where you were convened and talked to you about how you needed to run into a closet because there may be a mass shooter roaming the hallways of your school. And in our America, that should never have to happen," Harris explained.

Yea, ok Tamala, we get that. But, did you get on your knees for Willie Brown? Did he give it you from the rear? That’s what we need to hear from you. You can tell us about guns later.

Harris is suddenly a gun owner, something she hasn't said before but recently said when she was in Iowa. Talk about political pandering.

Do you get the feeling that to be a politician, you need to be able to lie with a straight face?

Just for the record, she’s half black. The Liberals want to live by identity politics then they need to be accurate

The Press has already moved her out of their favorite position and installed butt boy as their new love

When she was younger did she shuffle on her kneepads into the closet for “training”? I wonder...

This woman clearly is a wannabe dictator that thinks she could rule by decree. Fortunately she’s really stupid as well as being a slut so I don’t think she has much chance in spite of the Media adulation.

A CNN town hall is no more than a scripted commercial that a Democrat gets at no charge. Realistically it ought to be considered a violation of campaign Finance laws

Naturally, a near perfect candidate for any Demonic party position - worships the earth, sleeps with every person around her, no moral boundaries, sociopathic tendency’s, etc...

She is a god to the anti-God, anti-liberty, anti-American MSM, entertainment industry, and academia.

...you want to go hunting, fine...

From that you just know she's bought into the whole need vs right lie about the 2nd Amendment. Our Constitutionally protected (not granted) rights are not about merely hunting.

But we need reasonable gun safety laws in this country,

"Reasonable" eh? What is "reasonable" to you is completely unacceptable to me. I'm sure what I would consider "reasonable" safety laws would be unacceptable to you. Reasonable is just a euphemism for "what we can get away with now" knowing full well they will be ineffective at curbing criminal behavior - thus setting the stage for additional, more onerous, more un-Constitutional, more restrictive gun laws. It is incrementalism pure and simple.

...starting with universal background checks...

BS. So-called "universal" background checks are a lie. They are named to make people feel good about them. But the idea is ludicrous. Criminals don't get background checks. If they could pass a background check then they would obtain their firearms like anyone else. But they can't. Expecting "universal" background checks to do anything towards curbing criminal behavior is insane. You might as well pass a law saying all drug transactions must take place at a pharmacy after getting a prescription from a physician - then expecting that to stop or even influence the illegal drug trade in any way. Criminals are going to break laws, not just suddenly start obeying your pet project.

...and a renewal of the Assault Weapon Ban," Harris explained.

Oh, the 10 year long, completely in-effective ban we tried? Why the {expletive} would someone advocate to re-try something that was proven - by actual test - not to work? Hey, let's bring back the Edsel. Sure, we know it's not going to work, but we must do something! so let's try that again. You know why leftists advocate for "gun control" or "gun safety" or "reasonable..." laws that they know will not work? It is because they don't care if they work. In fact they don't want them to work, they need them not to work. Their ultimate goal is complete civilian disarmament. They know they cannot get there all at once, it would quite literally spark an armed uprising, call it civil war II, an insurgency, violent civil disobedience, whatever.

The strategy is incrementalism. Chip away a little at a time. In order to do that, the steps along the way have to make it increasingly difficult to privately own firearms. They have to narrow the types and capabilities of the "legal" firearms. Chip, chip, chipping away, little by little - it's only "reasonable" after all... All the while, they absolutely need the laws to not actually do anything to curb violence. They need that violence to justify the next round of laws. So the proposed "gun control" laws all share two common traits: One, they only impact the law abiding - making it more difficult, time consuming, expensive, to own firearms and/or restrict features & capabilities; two, they will not reduce crime in any meaningful way, thus paving the way for additional restrictions.

This woman is a socialist/fascist nightmare.

Harris will be within the first 3 to drop out of the presidential race.

“There’s hope - I was glad to learn my kid’s High School has a skeet shooting team, which suggests they’re competing against other schools here in TX.”

I was saddened to discover on my first cruise after many years of Love Boat re-runs that shooting skeet was no longer allowed.

A shame, I hear they’re good eating.

And specifically what I'll do is put in place a requirement that for anyone who sells more than five guns a year, they are required to do background checks when they sell those guns," Harris said.

So... she wants to create an executive order that already mimics federal law? Dealers are required to do background checks. Is she hung up on the number of 5? I dont get it.
