Well, well, well, elitism anyone?
Karen Bass is a U.S. Congresswoman who is currently running for office as the Mayor of Los Angeles. She is a hardcore leftist, so much so that she called a prominent Communist Party USA member, not just a friend, but also a mentor. She is consistently in favor of gun control measures. And on Saturday, she announced that someone broke into her home and stole two of her guns:
Candidate for Los Angeles mayor and U.S. Rep. Karen Bass says her home was burglarized overnight.
Bass said Saturday afternoon that her home had been broken into late Friday evening and two firearms were stolen, “despite being safely and securely stored.”
I have no problem whatsoever with Bass possessing firearms. While I disagree with her politically, she’s a law-abiding citizen, and I believe this would be a safer, more polite country if every law-abiding citizen-owned firearms.
The issue, however, is that Bass is not only for gun control, she REALLY supports draconian gun laws that trample the second amendment.
Here’s a list of gun control initiatives Bass supports (culled from here, here, here):
- Forcing gun dealers to report all sales to the federal government
- Banning magazines holding more than ten magazines
- Requiring mandatory background checks for all firearm sales (including private exchanges)
- Reinstating the federal assault weapons ban
- Requiring background checks to purchase ammunition
- Banning “bullet buttons”
- Banning lending guns to one’s own family members without a background check
- Repealing “stand your ground” laws
Yep, pretty radical if you ask me.
