Sep 20, 2024, 02:23 AM

Vice President Kamala Harris made headlines during an event with Oprah Winfrey by stating that if someone breaks into her house, they would be shot. Harris, who revealed she is a gun owner, added with a laugh that she probably shouldn’t have said that and that her staff would deal with it later. The comments have sparked backlash, with critics highlighting the perceived hypocrisy of her stance on gun control. Harris has been a vocal advocate for stricter gun laws, which contrasts with her personal admission of owning a gun for self-defense. She made these remarks while discussing school shootings and noted that Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is also a gun owner.
