Kamala Harris Will Enforce Red Flag Laws to Deny Firearms for ‘White Nationalists’

If she is able to obtain the presidency in 2020, Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) intends to enforce red flag laws that would deny firearm rights to “white nationalists.”

She announced her intentions today to urge Congress to revoke the 2nd Amendment and due process for anyone deemed by the government as a “white nationalist” under a “domestic terrorism prevention order,” if she becomes president. Harris is centering her campaign around the collective punishment of white people.

“We need to take action to keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people and stop violent, hate-fueled attacks before they happen,” Harris said. “By focusing on confronting these domestic terror threats, we can save lives.”

Adam Skaggs, who works as chief counsel for the gun control group Giffords, is cheering on Harris’ proposal to expand the scope of red flag laws beyond what has already been signed into law throughout the country.

“It’s great that states are making progress on this on a state-by-state basis, but this is a nationwide problem and we need a nationwide solution and that is where a federal solution comes in handy,” said Skagg, who spoke with the Harris campaign about her restrictive proposal.

“(Red flag laws) have been particularly effective in preventing suicide, but there is another problem that really needs attention and that is the rise of hate-fueled crime,” he added.

Harris also intends to write an Executive Order forcing states to mandate background checks on all online gun sales if she is elected president.

“In America, loaded guns should not be a few clicks away for any domestic terrorist with a laptop or smartphone,” Harris said.

While white nationalism may pose a national security threat, the danger of Harris’ proposal is that the fake news media and Democratic Party operatives have spent the last several years smearing every Trump supporter, Republican, conservative and libertarian as a “white nationalist” regardless of the evidence.

President Donald Trump, by pushing to pass unconstitutional red flag laws, is laying the groundwork for the Democrats to revoke gun rights for his supporters the next time they seize power.
