We’ve often reported that Kamala Harris talks to people like they are children but the truth may be she has the mind of a child. In yet another embarrassing public appearance the illegitimate vice president tossed up one of her patented word salads and called for an “assault weapons” ban.
Harris reportedly made an unannounced visit to Highland Park, Illinois, the site of the 4th of July parade mass shooting. It apparently wasn’t as unannounced as reported because there was a huge microphone array waiting for her to deliver words of wisdom. Instead, it was vintage Kamalatoe:
“We talk about it being senseless. It is senseless. It’s absolutely senseless.”
“And we’ll deal with what we need to deal with in terms of moving forward.”
“We got to take this stuff seriously as seriously as you are because you’ve been forced to take it seriously.”
Perhaps Kamala should deal with the fact that she’s seriously senseless. For the entire 4 minutes Harris spoke, she looked like a deer caught in the headlights, with no idea what she was supposed to say. It’s weird that she didn’t have some words prepared for her, but maybe she’s so arrogant that she thinks she can get up there and wing it. She can’t.
BTW, I can find no evidence that Harris was talking to anyone but the press. She acted as if she was addressing the residents of Highland Park, but none of them were actually there.
Earlier in the day, Harris gave a speech to the National Education Association in Chicago and demanded an “assault weapons” ban:
“You know, I’ll talk in a minute how you as educators teach the children so much and you teach the children, among many things, reason. So let’s talk about what an assault weapon is designed to do,” started Harris.
Educators teach children? I never knew.
“An assault weapon is designed to kill a lot of human beings quickly,” said Harris.
When Harris delivered that line, she counting things off on her hand like she was making a list.
“To kill” she said as she held up her thumb.
“A lot of human beings,” she said extending her forefinger.
“Quickly,” she said adding her middle finger.
That’s not three things, it’s one. Also it’s bullshit. She’s talking about semi-automatic rifles like AR-15s, which aren’t assault weapons, and they were designed to be light-weight rifles using intermediate cartridges.
“There is no reason why we have weapons of war on the streets of America. We need reasonable gun safety laws!” Harris yelled.
I guess it’s good that we don’t have weapons of war on the streets of America because AR-15s definitely aren’t used by the military in combat situations.
And technically, every single firearm was developed with a military application in mind. Revolvers, bolt-actions, lever-actions, shotguns, etc… were all, at some point, weapons of war. The point is, currently, weapons of war are select-fire rifles, something an AR-15 is not.
As for the “reasonable gun safety laws” business, what’s reasonable about banning an entire class of weapon, that is rarely used in violent crime, because occasionally assholes misuse them? A better question is, what’s Constitutional about that?
