Harris claims Second Amendment support while pushing for assault weapons ban: 'Literally' weapons of war
Vice President Kamala Harris called for an assault weapons ban while claiming she supports the Second Amendment at the same time during an appearance on Thursday’s "The Jennifer Hudson Show."
While mourning the victims of gun violence, Harris decried the "weapons of war" prevalent on the streets and called for a new assault weapons ban to stop mass shootings.
"We shouldn't have to be presented with this false choice which suggests you're either in favor of the Second Amendment or you want reasonable gun safety laws. That's a false choice." Harris said.
She added, "It is reasonable to say that weapons of war have no place on the streets of America and by that, I mean assault weapons. Weapons of war. They were literally designed to be weapons of war. We need an assault weapons ban. These are reasonable things to do."
