It’s no secret that Vice President Kamala Harris (D) and her running mate, Minn. Gov. Tim Walz (D), openly detest the constitutional right to keep and bear arms, despite their comments to the contrary, but it is incredible how far they think they can go.

“We’re going to require responsible behaviors among everybody in the community, and just because you legally possess a gun in the sanctity of your locked home doesn’t mean that we’re not going to walk into that home and check to see if you’re being responsible and safe in the way you conduct your affairs,” Harris told a group of reporters in a 2007 press conference.

The government intrusion Harris suggests is unconstitutional. The Fourth Amendment states, “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”

Harris’ troubling comments came during a press conference with then-San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom (D) as they promoted gun-control legislation that would punish gun owners who “improperly” stored their firearms.

“When we create laws, it’s not only about creating an opportunity, if you will, to prosecute someone for committing a crime, but more importantly, when we legislate our values, it’s about trying to encourage certain types of behavior,” said Harris at the time.

Newsom would go onto sign the legislation, bundled with other gun-control measures, saying at the time that, “San Francisco now has the strictest anti-gun laws in the county.”

Though these comments are from 2007, Harris’ recent comments show that she has not changed. In the most-recent presidential debate, she said, “We’re not taking anybody’s guns away,” while simultaneously promoting bans on millions of semi-automatic rifles lawfully owned by American citizens.

Harris also said during her 2020 presidential campaign that if Congress did not pass her preferred gun-control policies within 100 days, she would take executive action to circumvent the legislative branch. “Upon being elected, I will give the United States Congress 100 days to get their act together and have the courage to pass reasonable gun safety laws. And if they fail to do it, then I will take executive action,” said Harris.

Her record paints a clear picture, and Harris’ nearly two decades worth of comments show that she is opposed to the peoples’ Second Amendment-protected rights.
