Vice President Kamala Harris has made a thing out of the fact that she owns a gun. She holds it up, metaphorically, as a symbol that she can be trusted with our right to keep and bear arms. No one actually believes that, mind you, but she's sure trying just the same.
Not only has she failed to account for some of her anti-gun positions of the past, but a comment on a completely different subject may come back to bite her in the posterior.
Kamala Harris favors the legalization of marijuana.
That's fine. She's entitled to her position on the topic. I don't disagree. While I despise the whole push to make it seem like pot does nothing bad and really is a wonder drug that undermines Big Pharma, I honestly don't care if people rot their brains so long as it's of their own volition.
But Harris has also acknowledged having used it in the past, which raises some interesting questions, questions Second Amendment attorney Matt Cubeiro is asking.
More questions re @KamalaHarris gun ownership. In an interview she did in 2019 she admitted to using marijuana at one point. Federal law prohibits marijuana users from owning/possessing guns? When was she using and when did she buy her gun? https://t.co/KQhYvXM1Cc

These are certainly fair questions.
For example, we know that Hunter Biden purchased a firearm during the same period he was using illicit drugs, according to his own memoir. That landed him in hot water.
With Harris, we don't quite have the same smoking gun – pardon the pun – but the question is most definitely a fair one.
Did Kamala Harris use illegal drugs around the time that she purchased her Glock?
It's a simple question. If she says she used it while in college and hasn't touched it since, no worries. If she used it around the time of the purchase or even afterward, she broke federal law.
Considering her history of locking up people for drugs and guns, it would be more than a little hypocritical to break federal gun control laws and expect a pass on it.
Of course, I don't know that we can accept any answer at face value, but this is one of those cases where she at least needs to lie about it. Give the answer that will keep her out of trouble and call it a day. I mean, it's not like lying is something new to her or the Democratic Party.
In 2019, she said her use was a long time ago, but that could mean just about anything. That's a matter of perspective. We also don't know precisely when she bought the Glock she keeps talking about.
Did the two coincide in some way? We don't know, but it's a question that needs to be asked, especially since it's only recently we learned she even had a gun.
I'm not holding my breath on her answering the question, much less answering it honestly. She expects everyone to bow, scrape, and accept what she says as the gospel truth.
