'I am a gun owner, and I own a gun for probably the reason a lot of people do -- for personal safety,' Democratic Sen. Kamala Harris said. 'I was a career prosecutor.'
"I am a gun owner, and I own a gun for probably the reason a lot of people do -- for personal safety," the California Democrat said Thursday."I was a career prosecutor."The weight of that phrase was a reminder of the personal risk Harris has faced in her career in law enforcement, from being an Alameda County criminal prosecutor, San Francisco district attorney and California attorney general.
It's a false choice that is born out of a lack of courage from leaders who must recognize and agree that there are some practical solutions to what is a clear problem in our country."Many times on the campaign trail, Harris has talked about her disgust at the lack of action in Congress after school shootings, from the 2018 shooting in Parkland, Florida, to the 2012 shooting in Newtown, Connecticut.
