The Second Amendment Foundation has released a devastating 15-second video featuring a selection of actual recorded remarks by Kamala Harris which, according to a news release, “reveal the extent of her extremist anti-gun philosophy.”
The video message may be viewed on “X” (formerly Twitter), Instagram, YouTube and Facebook.
The short video will be expanded to fill a 30-second spot, said SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan Gottlieb.
“Our message is simple and straightforward,” Gottlieb explained. “We’re not telling anyone who to vote for. But we are warning the American public to not allow Harris or anyone like her to take their firearms. What she calls a ‘mandatory buyback’ is actually compensated confiscation, no matter how it is portrayed.”
Harris has been a devoted anti-gunner throughout her political career. Despite her claims to be the owner of a Glock semiautomatic pistol—which may actually be prohibited in California under that state’s current gun control laws—Harris has invariably supported all sorts of gun control measures. As she battles to win the presidential election on Nov. 5, her history as a gun control extremist is becoming a serious campaign issue.
The short video has images of Harris and her quotes are posted along with the actual audio from when she made the various remarks. The short video includes her remarks during a news conference in which then-San Francisco District Attorney Harris told reporters about a new gun control policy in the city: “Just because you legally possess a gun in the sanctity of your locked home doesn’t mean that we’re not going to walk into that home and check to see if you’re being responsible and safe in the way you conduct your affairs.”
Another soundbite has Harris acknowledging, “Yeah, I am a radical. We need to get radical about what we are doing.”
A third remark has her stating, “I support a mandatory buyback program,” which translates to forced surrender of privately-owned firearms with a symbolic financial remuneration, SAF said.
“The Second Amendment is sacrosanct,” Gottlieb observed. “The Founders knew exactly what they were doing when they said the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. Harris, and far too many people with the same agenda obviously don’t care. From her own words, we can see Harris is willing to unleash demagoguery to accomplish her goals. She may try to sugar-coat her intentions, but we’re not going to let her.”
SAF currently has scores of lawsuits in progress, challenging gun bans and restrictive gun control laws in courts across the country, Gottlieb noted.
“Our intent is to expand on this video and produce a 30-second television spot highlighting her remarks,” Gottlieb said. “Whether she owns a gun or not, Kamala Harris obviously doesn’t want anyone else to have one.”
