Sen. Kamala Harris weighed-in on the national gun-control debate Monday evening; telling a town hall event in Iowa that there’s “no reason” to have “assault weapons in a civil society.”
Harris was speaking with CNN’s Jake Tapper when she was asked to comment on her possible positions regarding the Second Amendment should she win the presidency in 2020.
“We have got to have smart gun safety laws in this country, and we’ve got to stop buying this false choice. You can be in favor of the Second Amendment and also understand that there is no reason in a civil society that we have assault weapons around communities that can kill babies and police officers,” Harris said.
