Show Notes
John Lott, President of the Crime Prevention Research Center has a new article addressing Kamala’s claims that she is a gun owner- how interesting since she spent most of her career bashing guns and their owners. Even going so far as to say she would instill a mandatory gun buyback program. Now, she is a gun owner.....And let’s not forget crime has dramatically increased under Biden-Harris, despite all of their gun grabbing from legal gun owners.
