Kamala Harris Supported A 2005 Ballot Measure In San Francisco To Ban, Confiscate Handguns

Posted • September 26, 2024: Kamala Harris and her campaign surrogates have insisted -- repeatedly -- she's a gun owner and isn't going to ban guns (she is, though). They can't really provide details on the gun, though, but Kamala said if you try breaking into her home she'll shoot you. But, for sake of argument, let's believe that Kamala owns a handgun as The New York Times reported. If that's the case, this scoop from Stephen Gutowski at The Reload is very, very interesting: Kamala Harris Backed San Francisco Handgun Confiscation Measure https://thereload.com/kamala-harris-backed-san-francisco-handgun-confiscation-measure/ -- But she's totally not going to confiscate your handguns. -- Vice President Kamala Harris supported a 2005 ballot measure that banned San Francisco residents from possessing pistols.

The Democrat presidential nominee backed Proposition H in her role as the city’s District Attorney at the time. The measure banned San Francisco residents from buying, selling, or even possessing handguns. With exceptions included for active-duty law enforcement, military, and licensed security guards, 58 percent voted in favor of the measure. But it faced immediate legal scrutiny from the National Rifle Association (NRA), California Rifle and Pistol Assocaition (CRPA), and other gun-rights groups. “San Francisco was a leader in proposing gun restrictions at the local level, and she never met a gun control law she didn’t like,” Chuck Michel, who represented the NRA and CRPA in its fight against the city, told The Reload. “Prop H was the crowning jewel.”

There it is, folks. Look, no one is coming to take your guns. We're just going to outlaw the purchase, sale, and possession of your guns…and then take them. 'It's not a ban, it's a mandatory buyback.' That's the garbage semantics they'll try to play here. That's literally taking guns away. Kamala supported measures to ban handguns in both her home state and in SCOTUS while AG. While in the primaries she repeatedly called for mandatory gun confiscation. As VP she advocated for Australia-style gun confiscation. She is and will continue to be an anti-gun tyrant. (…)
