A little over a week after Hamas massacred over 1,400 unarmed Israeli civilians (also police and soldiers), Kamala Harris posted a call for an “assault weapons” ban, saying, “Weapons of war have no place on the streets of a civil society. We need an assault weapons ban. Congress, send it to @JoeBiden’s desk.”

Republicans pounced on Harris’ call for an “assault weapons” ban.
Rep. Andrew Clyde (R-GA), “After the world watched Hamas slaughter innocent, unarmed Israelis and Americans, the Biden Administration is still pushing its radical anti-Second Amendment agenda. Unconscionable.”
