(AP Photo\/Elise Amendola)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\nSelf-proclaimed gun owner and Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris revealed on 60 Minutes<\/em> on Sunday that the gun she claims to own is a Glock and that she\u2019s had it a long time.<\/p>\nThe revelation came as she insinuated it should have surprised nobody recently when she said she was a gun owner.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat was not the first time I\u2019ve really talked about it,\u201d she said, shaking her finger at host Bill Whitaker. \u201cThat\u2019s not the first time I talked about it.\u201d<\/p>\n
The fact that the anti-gun presidential candidate might own any firearm as she continually tries to further restrict Second Amendment rights is sheer hypocrisy. But what is even more hypocritical is that she owns a Glock. Here\u2019s why.<\/p>\n
First, Glock pistols are semi-automatic\u2014you know, they fire a round every time you pull the trigger. However, Kamala, her boss President Joe Biden and other anti-gun advocates like to fudge a little every now and then and say that semi-auto pistols are actually full-auto and can be used to \u201cspray bullets.\u201d Semi-auto rifles using the same mechanism are on their list to ban and confiscate.<\/p>\n
But that\u2019s not the only thing. Nearly every Glock model made is designed to accept those evil \u201chigh-capacity\u201d magazines Harris and Biden are so keen on banning. If she really does own a Glock, I wonder if she\u2019d like to reveal what the capacity of her magazine is.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, what right does Kamala have to own a gun anyway. In court filings during the Heller <\/em>case, Harris signed on to documents stating that the Second Amendment doesn\u2019t protect an individual<\/em> right, but only protects those who are in a militia. If she\u2019s not in some militia that we haven\u2019t heard about, she\u2019s a doubly big hypocrite for owning a firearm.<\/p>\nAdditionally, the Biden-Harris administration\u2019s White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention recently collaborated with anti-gun billionaire Michael Bloomberg\u2019s Everytown for Gun Safety and the City of Chicago to target\u00a0Glock Inc. in a frivolous lawsuit alleging the company is responsible for the criminal misuse of firearms when criminals unlawfully attach an illegal device to Glock handguns to convert them to full-auto. In that situation, White House officials met privately with Glock representatives to demand a design alteration to their handguns\u2014the very same kind of pistol the vice president claims to own.<\/p>\n
When Kentucky U.S. Rep. James Comer, head of the House Oversight Committee sent questions about the matter on June 14 demanding answers, administration officials refused to answer them. Instead, White House Deputy counsel Rachel Cotton responded by accusing Comer of shilling for the gun lobby.<\/p>\n
Comer\u2019s response to the counter accusation was short and to the point.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the U.S. House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate \u2018any matter\u2019 at \u2018any time\u2019 under House Rule X,\u201d Comer reminded Cotton. \u201cThe White House should spend more time complying with Committee requests, and less time obstructing congressional investigations into potential misconduct and misuse of office by White House officials.\u201d<\/p>\n
Last but not least, let\u2019s talk about California\u2019s arguably illegal handgun roster. In California, citizens can only purchase handguns that have been certified by the state, and the number is dwindling year by year.<\/p>\n
Interestingly, many Glock pistols are not on that handgun roster so thereby illegal for California residents to own. Gen 3 Glocks and below were grandfathered in as they were sold before the law was passed. But Gen 4 and 5 cannot be sold in the state. If she bought her alleged Glock new since 2009, it\u2019s probably illegal for normal <\/em>citizens of California to own. Unless, or course, she bought a Gen 3 or earlier at a gun show!<\/p>\nThat brings us to Kamala\u2019s biggest Glock hypocrisy of all. Harris previously supported handgun bans in both San Francisco, where she began her political career and served as district attorney between 2004 and 2011, and Washington, D.C., where she has served in federal office since 2017. Can you say, \u201cGuns for me, but not for thee\u201d?<\/p>\n
In the end, the vice president\u2019s Glock debacle is just another reason no gun owner should even think about voting for her on Election Day.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
