#Trump: “She wants to take away your guns.”
False.
MVP #KamalaHarris, in 2019, said she supports a gun buyback program for #AssaultWeapons, not all #guns. Her campaign recently said that she no longer supports a buyback program.
Her running mate, Gov #TimWalz, is a gun owner & a hunter.
When #Walz signed 2023 MN gun law he said, "This is NOT about the #SecondAmendment, This is about the #safety & #security of our communities. That's what's happening here today."
The most obvious things that will be of concern to leftist #Dems are that #Walz is a #GunOwner, a #Hunter & once received an "A" rating from the #NRA for his support of #GunOwnership .
The NRA lowered its rating of Walz to "F" after he changed his position to allow more restrictions on #GunOwnership following the #Parkland shooting in #Florida (including as was just pointed out to me) that, as govenor, Walz implemented background checks to prevent "mentally unstable people" from purchasing guns in #Minnesota .
So, while I do not believe that Walz will ever support a complete ban on gun ownership (other than for #AssaultWeapons ), he has already shown that he's willing to a support "common sense" restrictions on gun ownership that will lessen (but certainly not quell) the concerns of leftist Dems in this regard.
