Sen. Kamala Harris earlier this year said if elected president, she would take executive actions to ban the importation of AR-15-style weapons into the U.S. and expand background check requirements.

WASHINGTON – Sen. Kamala Harris, a 2020 Democratic presidential candidate, hit back at the National Rifle Association who criticized her gun control proposals, as the national conversation about guns has taken center stage following two recent mass shootings and increasing concerns about gun violence and how to combat it.

"Big surprise: Kamala Harris is anti-gun," the NRA wrote in a tweet Saturday."What she doesn’t seem to realize is that most of her gun control policies either wouldn’t work, or are already law, or basically make no sense. Here’s a look at what she’s proposing, and why her plans are ridiculous." "People say to me that Donald Trump caused those folks to be killed," Harris said at the Des Moines Register Political Soapbox at the Iowa State Fair Saturday."Well, no, of course he didn't pull the trigger, but he's certainly been tweeting out the ammunition."

On Sunday, Harris took part in a gun vioence presidential forum in Des Moines, Iowa, which was organized by Everytown for Gun Safety. The last minute forum, which 16 Democratic presidential candidates participated in, was put on following the recent back-to-back mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton.

What proposals?

'Well, no, of course he didn't pull the trigger, but he's certainly been tweeting out the ammunition.' So she points out he did not literally pull the trigger...but then says he has 'certainly been tweeting out the ammunition'...does she know that ammo cannot be made with tweets?

Give them NOTHING!

NRA singles out Kamala Harris for 'ridiculous' gun reform planThe National Rifle Association has singled out Democratic Sen. Kamala Harris for what they call a 'ridiculous' gun reform plan. In response, the presidential candidate's campaign sent a fundraising email laying out the attack and asking supporters to help. Down with the NRA! They are noting but a pack of Traitors What's truly sad is that Americans need an organization like the NRA to protect us from Democrats. Now that I think about it, we had founding fathers who appear to have been able to foresee the rise of the anti-Constitutional DNC. Who in their right sense will donate money to NRA to enrich few corrupt individuals who has tons of bloodshed on their heads ?
