Sportsmen take notice as Harris-Walz pledge attacks on the 2nd amendment if elected

As if Kamala Harris' record wasn't already bad enough considering her disaster at the southern border, being voted as "the most liberal Senator in congress" by Gov Track, her history of convicting hundreds on marijuana charges, being a supporter of defunding the police and raising bail money for protesters during the riots in Minnesota and promoting the "woke agenda" she now has added attacking the Second amendment to her resume'. During her past failed attempt at becoming the democratic nominee in 2020 Harris proclaimed "upon being elected, I will give 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". In her first campaign speech since the Democrats ousted Joe Biden during his re-election bid Harris said she "will pass red flag laws, universal background checks, and an assault weapons ban". After hearing this it's no stretch of the imagination to think she won't stop there.

Sportsmen everywhere are paying attention to the huge mainstream media push that's going on right now in order to clean up Harris as a worthy candidate. Most, if not all, of Harris' sub par political past has been re-framed by the media and made out to be a success when in fact that is far from the truth. Having Harris use gun control as one of her talking points to go along with other extreme items on her agenda should be more than enough to generate a strong presence at the ballot box from sportsmen everywhere.

Now if the glaring mistakes, mismanagement, and media push are not enough to get sportsmen concerned about the election the potential vice presidential candidate, Tim Walz should be. Walz, the democratic governor of Minnesota, is even being branded as "midwestern" and "moderate" which is far from the truth when you look at his record and policies. Walz, if you can believe it, is it even farther left and more liberal than Kamala Harris and that was put on display during the riots in Minnesota where his judgement as to how long it took him to deploy the National Guard in order to help local police has come under heavy criticism by state and local authorities. Walz is now embroiled in controversy as he has led many to believe that actually served in a combat area while in the military . Walz, while recently campaigning for the ban on assault weapons, made the statement "weapons of war that I carried in war" has been fact checked and proven he never was in a combat area. In fact when Walz found out his unit was to be deployed he mysteriously retired, "he went behind everyone's back" said Thomas Behrends who took Walz's place as Master Sargent in the summer of 2005. Walz has come under heavy scrutiny from the National Guard and other veterans groups about his military record as he tries to backtrack on previous statements and claims he "misspoke". Make no mistake about it, Tim Walz has a clear agenda around gun control and gun ownership rights that he will push for at every opportunity to go along with his far left beliefs on a wide range of other social topics.

A few final thoughts on the Harris-Walz ticket that should make you sit up and take notice regardless if you are a sportsman or not. As of this column it has been almost three weeks since Kamala Harris and the behind the scenes powers of the Democratic party "nudged" Joe Biden out the door and she still has not held a press conference where she had to answer questions and not speak from a script on a teleprompter. Also let's not forget that the same candidate, Kamala Harris, who opposes voter ID laws says you must present a valid government issued ID in order to attend her rally. You truly can't make stuff like this up. Finally and perhaps most importantly, remember the same people who told you for three years that Joe Biden was great and had no cognitive issues are the same ones telling you how amazing Kamala Harris will be if elected. Let that sink in before you cast that ballot.
